Statesman, gentleman--give that man a Nobel.
8. Prime Minister Harper
Andy ,   Calgary, Canada   (09.08.12)
The Conservative government of Canada and especially Prime Minister Stephen Harper have supported Israel and the Jewish community consistently since his rise to party leadership. Government Ministers like Rona Ambrose, John Baird and Jason Kenney have been in absolute lockstep in protecting Israel's interests despite the vicious attacks from Muslims, liberals and sadly even the established Jewish communities of Montreal and Toronto. It is all too common to hear that Harper has a 'secret agenda' among effete Eastern Canadian liberal elites. Well, here was the secret agenda. He intended to hold to account the demonic, totalitarian Iranian junta. Now could Mr. Harper possibly get a vote from Cote Ste Luc or Forest Hill?
9. I live in Montreal and I support PM Harper
Al   (09.08.12)
He is by far one of the greatest PMs Canada has ever had. The Jews in Canada cant see that as the hazer shmaltz is running down their mouths, but they ought to understand one thing. A man like Harper comes around once in a 100 years. He understands more about Israel and its place in the world than 99% of the Jews in Canada. Inspite of the lack of support from the Jews of Canada he is a man of principle and resolve much unlike the Liberals. He does the right thing and for that he is one of the worlds greatest statesman.
10. Thank you, Canada, for being on the same
Adam Smith   (09.08.12)
side of humanity.
11. Kol ha Kavod!!!
Gady ,   Mexico City   (09.08.12)
He should be put right up there with all the other non-jewish brothers and sisters who stood up before evil, like in the holocaust, the way of the richeous. From all the diaspora jews: You are a mentsh, Mr. Prime Minister.

16. CANADA CUTS TIES WITH IRAN
Rick Sanders ,   Victoria BC Canada   (09.08.12)
Sometimes doing the right thing is the right thing to do. Thank You PM Harper, you make me proud to be a Canadian.

18. Quebec & Iran
Duddy ,   Montreal, Canada   (09.09.12)
Two events take place very close in time. 1- Iranian born Amir Khadir the violently antisemitic, Khomeneist, is reelected to the Quebec National Assembly representing the radical. ultranationalist separatist political party, Quebec Solidaire. 2 - A few days later the Harper Government severs all ties with Tehran. Coincidence? Iranian diplomats have been providing support to violent, ultra-nationalist, antisemitic Quebec French subversives. One of these parties is headed by Iranian born member of Quebec's provincial parliament named Amer Khader, a virulently antisemitic, Khomeinist. Iran is looking for a political weak spot to establish a beachhead in North America and to destabilize Canada through its embassy in Ottawa. Stephen Harper has information, not made public.
19. Wus?
Daniel Bentley ,   Ottawa, Canadal   (09.09.12)
20. IRAN WAR MEANS LOTS OF MONEY FOR CANADA
Arik Silverman ,   Chicago USA   (09.09.12)
Canada has a huge amount of its own oil and sells a lot to the US and other countries. IRAN WAR MEANS HIGHER OIL PRICES AND LOTS OF MONEY FOR CANADA. Don't think Canada is being such a friend to Israel: it's being a friend to Canada.
21. This is why I voted Conservative
David ,   Toronto, Canada   (09.09.12)
This was a courageous decision. I want to thank the Conservatives personally and on behalf of the Forest HIll Jewish Community.
22. CANADIANS DO NOT support this action
Thomas ,   Toronto, CANADA   (09.09.12)
This is an embarrassment for Canadians. A CBC poll shows that the majority of Canadians do NOT support this strange action by our right-wing government. It makes us look unserious and beholden to the Israeli right-wing. For shame.
23. What a charade..
peter vojta ,   prag   (09.09.12)
Peres thanks for obeing orders....

eat your heart
25. #18 you are probably righ...Kadir was made to shut up
Al   (09.09.12)
by Francois David. He is an anti-semite of the first order and you will not hear the end of him. He has wide support among the sushi eaters in the Plateau and the pots and pans bangers. He also has good support in Outrevermin.(Outremont) As for Tosh up in Boisbriand those schnorrers, they all voted PQ. We have our own dreck among us who dont dive a damn about anyone but themselves. Now you know why we are in Golus and still in Golus even when we have an Israel.
26. Pride that as a Canadian, we have Stephen
Robert Haymond ,   Israel/Canada   (09.09.12)
Harper as distinguished prime minister.
27. #22
joshua clifford ,   ont.canada   (09.09.12)
you sir get your information from a left controlled media which inacse you didnt know most canadians dont participate in that cbc website so your very wrong most canadians DO support harpers decision last i checked we had a majority government!
28. Harper and Iran
David ,   Canada   (09.10.12)
Nonsense!! The majority of Canadians oppose Harper's decision. I also remind you that the Harper and his "Conservatives" received a mere 39% of the votes cast by less than 60% of eligible voters.
29. Harper and Iran
David ,   Vancouver, Canada   (09.10.12)
Please do not confuse the majority of Canadians with the Harper government. In fact, the majority of Canadians oppose Harper on this issue. They are also ashamed and disgusted to see their government kowtow to Israel, a well documented serial violator of international humanitarian law and a belligerent/illegal/brutal occupier. Harper's hypocrisy is unbelievable and embarasses most Canadians.
