OTTAWA — François-Philippe Champagne is likely to have full itinerary in his new role as foreign affairs minister, embarking on a long-shot campaign to win Canada a seat at the United Nations Security Council.
The move, according to some observers, was influenced by Canada’s need to win over a number of Middle Eastern votes in the upcoming Security Council vote. It marked the reversal of a 14-year voting pattern in which Canada’s posture toward the same resolution was aligned with the United States, which has struck an increasingly pro-Israel tone under the Trump administration.
The Liberal Party, for its part, is likely to place a high emphasis on winning the Security Council seat, which could serve as a bright mark for Trudeau after a bruising election. Meanwhile, Canada’s standing with China, one of the permanent members, has been tense because of ongoing trade tensions.
Why do we want it
....Canada faces a uphill battle for a UN Security Council Seat ...Really after throwing Israel under the bus ?!?!
Why bother, The United States is Camadas defense and defense budgets.
What do we need a Security Council seat for?
Canada has more pressing matters than pursuing a seat on the UN Security Council.
WHY? The UN is USELESS!!!

Trudeau's new cabinet faces big divide in Prairies: NanosPrime Minister Justin Trudeau unveiled a new cabinet partly designed to appeal to the Prairies provinces on Tuesday, but his government still faces a major regional divide among voters. Hegelian Dialectic.... Same old 'dog & pony show' to create the illusion of democracy when in fact we are ruled by plutocrats who do as they please without regard for the will of the people. BOTH parties suck and we won't have real democracy until we get rid of FPTP. JustinTrudeau, you had one job. Nanos needs to go into hibernation till the next time we need to count stuff.
