Okay, this post has nothing to do with Taiwan, but is entirely consistent with this blog's pro-democracy, pro-human rights, pro-freedom stance.
Democracy activist Aung San Suu Kyi has been under house arrest by Myanmar's disgusting military dictatorship for 10 of the last 16 years. Even UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan is pleading for her release to the Myanmar military junta. As Myanmar has official diplomatic relations with Canada, Mr. MacKay can signal Canada's strong support for democracy and its opposition to this brutal dictatorship. The Conservatives have shown that they are capable of making principled choices. These principles need to be applied to all parts of the world.
