Sam,
Thanks for letting us know about this guy. His writings certainly balance out what is written in North American newspapers. And now, with Canada sending the third largest contingent to the region, I don't expect we'll here all the dissenting views in this country(Granted want Canada sends is a tiny fraction of the UK and US contributions).
The reports will probably be more weighted towards 'fighting terrorism'. When when one of the opposition parties wanted to debate in Parliment saying that Canadians have the right to know why the should send their sons or daughter to die, the Prime Minister said that now was not the time to discuss such matters.
And Canadians thought their country was different!
