Canada makes the right call

Don’t ask me how or why, but every once and awhile Canada gets one right, and I mean really right. Ha’aretz:
The United Nations Human Rights Council on Monday voted in favor of making Israel's actions a permanent item on the council's agenda. Of the council's 47 member states, the sole opponent of the decision to make Israel a permanent agenda item was Canada
Now if only Canadians could be weaned from the idea of that membership in the UN is our second highest value (next to socialized healthcare), and if, Quebeccers could be induced from their long nursed prejudice - we could all feel a lot better about living here.
