#3 Canada calls on the Iranian authorities to immediately cease the use of violence against their own people, to release all political prisoners and journalists ... and to conduct a full and transparent investigation into allegations of fraud in the presidential election.

#4 Always interesting to listen closely for what is not being said or mentioned of late. Crickets chirping. Crickets? Crickets?

"Would you be willing to meet separately, without precondition, during the first year of your administration, in Washington or anywhere else, with the leaders of Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Cuba and North Korea, in order to bridge the gap that divides our countries?" Obama responded, "I would. And the reason is this, that the notion that somehow not talking to countries is punishment to them -- which has been the guiding diplomatic principle of this administration -- is ridiculous."

All the dead and injured Canadian soldiers from WWI, WWII, Korea and Afghanistan wouldn't agree. If they could speak.
