Prime Minister Stephen Harper will not be among the world leaders briefed personally by U.S. President Barack Obama about his plans for a new strategy in Afghanistan
Exactly. What's the deal with the CBC? Their always telling us that Canadians are against the war in Afghanistan but now their bitching because we're not staying to help Obama?
"Bacardi4206" said Who cares, we are leaving in 2010 anyways. Are we not?
2011 I think.
And that pretty much confirms it, we are out of the loop now, not that there is much benefit from being in the loop.
It is still much better to be an enemy of the US than a friend. I dont see any troop deployments from China or Russia, yet they get a personal briefing..
Hurry up midterms.
Many will now start to say we cut and run, with all the problems that will create.
It does seem like one of our best allies in the region would be given a personal briefing, but I can't really speak to the politics involved in this decision. Can't please everyone and all that.
Typical US stratagy... come in at the end and shout " We won, we did it" Canada has been the one stead fast country in Afghanistan and understands the country better than most.. screw Obama..
