CANADA MUST STAND UP

The Editor

Hugo Chavez, president of Venezuela, recently kicked the DEA out of 
Venezuela saying "the DEA's war on drugs has nothing to do with actually 
shutting down the business, but is rather part of a strategy of political 
intervention in Latin American affairs."

It is clear that the DEA vendetta regarding Marc Emery is also a political 
intervention.

If Venezuelans can a "have a government that looks after their sovereignty, 
why don't we in Canada deserve the same? Why are we in Canada stuck with 
politicians who so much enjoy the flavour of George Bush's bathwater?
