Yves Engler is the author of The Black Book of Canadian Foreign Policy. He spoke in Winnipeg, June 13, 2009, at the conclusion of the 28th annual Walk for Peace, on the need to reorient Canadian foreign policy. Engler’s proposals include:
- Abolition of Canada’s secretive Joint Task Force 2 commando unit
- Pulling out of NATO
- Reducing Canada’s burgeoning military expenditures by 10 per cent annually for up to 10 years
- Pulling out of Afghanistan immediately
- Reorienting Canadian foreign policy to serve the needs of the majority of Canadians rather than the interests of Canada’s business and military elites
Good stuff!
