The Canadian government continues to say they will not help us if we go to war with Iraq. However the prime minister of Canada said he'd like to help but he's pretty sure that last time he checked Canada had no army.

Secrecy being an instrument of conspiracy ought never to be the system of a regular government.

And I don't think that government has a role in telling people how to live their lives. Maybe a minister does maybe your belief in God does maybe there's another set of moral codes but I don't think government has a role.

But without a caring society without each citizen voluntarily accepting the weight of responsibility government is destined to grow even larger taking more of your money burrowing deeper into your lives.
