It is perception though. Even developing economies like Mexico and the Brics are making contributions to shore up the IMF knowing that what happens in Europe will affect their economies.

I can understand the US acting unilaterally which is par for the course for this country but Canada's actions seem like hubris. Do the Tories really believe what happens in Europe won't impact Canada?

And if not, why wouldn't you want to participate in the mechanism the G20 has agreed to?
