Disregarding a treaty undermines the very foundations of international law, says Jutta Brunnée
February 04, 2007
As is so often the case, the Canadian public is far ahead of their politicians – especially those who "lead" by following opinion polls. Most Canadians, it seems, want Canada to meet its commitments under the Kyoto Protocol.
Well, they have it right. They have it right from the standpoint of combating climate change, from the standpoint of international law, and from the standpoint of Canada's standing in the world.
A recent poll shows there is a committment to the environment as long as citizens don't have to make sacrifices.....

About Me
- Unhypentated Canadian
- I lean to the right but I still have a heart and if I have a mission it is to respond to attacks on people not available to protect themselves and to point out the hypocrisy of the left at every opportunity.MY MAJOR GOAL IS HIGHLIGHT THE HYPOCRISY AND STUPIDITY OF THE LEFTISTS ON TORONTO CITY COUNCIL. Last word: In the final analysis this blog is a relief valve for my rants/raves.
