I am often highly critical of the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs but every once in a while the Foreign Affairs Ministry does the right thing. From the
Globe and Mail:The 44 North Koreans who were holed up at the Canadian Embassy in Beijing have been released and taken to a safe third country, Foreign Affairs said Wednesday.
A spokesman for Foreign Minister Pierre Pettigrew confirmed the release.
"Mr. Pettigrew has confirmed the transfer of all 44 people from the Canadian Embassy," Sebastien Theberge said.
Today, I can feel better about being a Canadian.

Since I do not possess a biological wifi access network, and even if I did, it wouldn't matter since my fingers are not surgically attached to my keyboard - so comments are now moderated. You might even find your comment deleted for racism and/or defamatory content. Of course, I might just delete your comment because I just flat out do not like you. Although, you are still invited to take your best snark shot at me - points are awarded if you can make me laugh.
