I try to avoid politics on my LJ - and, indeed, everywhere else - but I was reading about recent comments by Lloyd Axworthy and I got quite excited. From The Globe and Mail:
Lloyd Axworthy, president of the University of Winnipeg, and foreign minister of Canada from 1996-2000, argues today in his essay We need a new map that we must throw out our slavish adherence to outdated U.S. policies and embrace truly international practices.Someone is saying this out loud? And people are listening? Is this too good to be true, or what?
This leads to a very interesting website that I didn't know about.
