MLI sets the tone: Robson on extreme partisanship and Canada’s UN bid
Writing in his weekly column for the Ottawa Citizen last Friday, MLI’s John Robson made the point that partisanship is destroying Canadian politics.
He noted that, “One of the oddest stories of the week, which takes some doing, was Michael Ignatieff apparently trying to undermine Canada’s bid for a UN Security Council seat.” Truly odd indeed, given the Ignatieff family history of diplomatic service and John pointed out the fallacy of the gambit in a point-by-point deconstruction of the arguments put forward by Ignatieff. He made the same case as we see today, almost a week later, in an Ottawa Citizen article by Colin Robertson.
