The War On Libya: Canada's Parliament Endorses Military Escalation

While the US Congress questions the legitimacy of the war on Libya, the Canadian parliament with one dissenting voice, votes in favor of extending Canada's participation in an illegal and criminal military undertaking:

 

On Tuesday, after Canada recognized the NTC as Libya's legitimate government, Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird said the rebels are the true representatives of the Libyan population and will therefore be a critical player in Canada's efforts to provide assistance.

 

"Our government will engage with the institutions and representatives of the NTC," Baird told Parliament on Tuesday before the evening vote. "I will be seeking a meeting with my counterparts on the NTC.

 

"We will identify members of the NTC responsible for domestic issues and propose meetings with their Canadian counterparts. We will also happily arrange meetings between NTC members and honourable members of this place."

 

The announcement also came hot on the heels of Ottawa's new commitment of $2 million in humanitarian assistance to civilians in Libya.

 

Green Party Leader Elizabeth May was the only dissenting MP to vote against the extension of the mission for three-and-a-half months. (CTV, June 15, 2011)

 

The broader implications of this "humanitarian war" and Ottawa's role in the US-NATO military alliance, not to mention the cost of this military operation to Canadian taxpayers has been barely mentioned in Canada's media.

 

The New Democratic Party (NDP) and the Bloc Quebecois, which claim to be "progressive' and "anti-war", have given a blank cheque to the US-NATO sponsored war in North Africa.
