The irrelevancy of the three pillars

I strongly, but respectfully and passionately, disagree with your opinion. I think the 3 pillars are more relevant than ever. And we need to keep all of them reunited in a coherent foreign policy. And the 3rd pillar is the most important of all, because it concerns values, and among these values, Love is the most important of all. Anywhere we are on the globe, we Canadians must promote Universal Love.

The irrelevancy of the three pillars

I agree with you both. The 'Three Pillars' have become irrelevant, but not unimportant. Greed, consumerism and self-gratification as espoused by the US as the greatest good, have 'morally castrated' the notions of common good and decency.
