Donald Tusk, Poland's prime minister, became the first EU head of government to announce a boycott on Thursday and he was promptly joined by President Václav Klaus of the Czech Republic, who had previously promised to travel to Beijing.
I guess that makes Harper #4.
It's not so much anti-China but standing up for the right thing.
Considering that the Dahli Lama is an honorary Canadian citizen, I would be ashamed if our leaders swept what China is doing to his people under the covers.
I'm very proud to see Canada standing up for what is right.

"Experience would suggest that such boycotts are generally not effective and really in the end only harm the athletes involved who have trained for so many years to compete in these events. So I don't see either in this country or internationally a push for that," he said.

Yep, that's leadership alright!
Seriously, the atheletes should go, and even Gordo. Besides, Besides, we have more chances to make the point if we do go than if we don't.
Expect Gordo and McSquinty to be part of DION' entourage.
You'll eat this post when they send CPC-MP (retired) Randy White as their representative. I'm sure he can bring along something from his unwilling organ donor presentations.

Seeing as you've eaten this article twice already, I don't think there will be all that much left for me...

The bottom line is with little whiny Dion Bitches like you Harper is damned if he does, damned if he doesn't, it's time you grow up!
