Consultation and cooperation can and will work, especially since we live in a closed system, but that doesn't mean we need to leave the choices that effect our nation and our economy up to unaccountable organizations.

And what does that have to do with the UN? The UN is 65% consensus and then do nothing.

May is having fun on twitter.

Mr. Harper, if you want to take credit for the drop in emissions, you can also take credit for the 2008 global economic crisis. #MunkDebate

Mrs Poole is back translating!

Not saying it has to be done strictly through the UN, but we absolutely should be in the habit of forming coalitions.

noooooooooooooooo ... the lady translator is back

[2Stonedbirds]

To add to that point Rubecube, my point about handing power over to the UN or other orgs when it comes to our own direction and self determination, is that we have heard, especially from the NDP, that a large number of our problems need to be handled by the UN, or that we require direction from the UN before we can do anything. On the UN small arms treaty, on intervention in the M.E., on the environment...

Voice crack every 30 seconds

[Drak]

I keep thinking of the maid from Family Guy.

[Senator Clay Davis]

She's even weirder now, she's actually changing tones and it's making it worse.

[Parallex]

Does this translator have respiratory problems? Yeesh, out of breath much.

[Jacks]

Crappy voice but she is actually pretty good at translating.

[killer_carlson]

dear Lord.

Just turned this on.

I'd almost say the Liberals and CPC paid to pick Mulclair's CPAC translator

2% of the emissions in the world...but we are the ones they are mad at.

God....how can anyone buy this drivel?

2% of the emissions in the world. 0.4% of the people in world. One of the wealthiest countries in the world.

Its hardly preposterous to argue that Canada is badly failing its duties with respect to climate change.

[Drak]

That mic is going to need some work after this.

[2Stonedbirds]

Waiting for the translator to go all "WEEE-O-WEEE-O-WOOW"

How did we become one of the wealthiest countries in the world again?
