"This is the problem: Our government is allocating over a billion dollars a day to an undefined cause (National Security) using methods that are proven to be ineffective, in any case. "

We're talking about Canada here, not the US... this is a discussion on the foreign policy of Canada. Yes, the US government is crazy to spend so much on defence, and they should spend more on the environment. But you must not live in a dream world either, having an army is a necessity, for several reasons. And Canada has ratified Kyoto and will follow through on its promises regarding the environment, I'm not worried about this.
