Harrison has a little shameless behaviour in the past
First, if you run to Canada, you will be sent back to the US. We have extradition treaties with you guys, and unless the person in question is facing the death penalty, we'll send you back to the US. So, stop running here.....Maybe swim to Cuba? Or, you could come to Canada, and then fly to Cuba, because us Canadian can go to Cuba....BTW its really nice down there

As for Iraq and Canada...Our government has said many times that if the UN supports action against Iraq, Canada will be in there fighting.

If the UN doesn't support the war, but the US acts unilaterally (which I strongly feel it should, nay, MUST not do) and still attacks Iraq, whether or not Canada will be backing the US, no one really knows. Personally, if the UN says no, I hope Canada respects that decision...and maybe the US might as well? Nah.

IMO, the US will attack Iraq. It is not a matter of IF, but WHEN. I figure it will probably happen towards the end of February, but hey, thats just me. Britain will probably back the US no matter what the UN says.

As for the UN, it exists to PREVENT COUNTRIES FROM ACTING UNILATERALLY AND CAUSING WARS. The US is a mamber of the UN, infact it is a vito member, and because of this, I feel it is the US's duty to follow what the UN says. If the US basically tells the UN to screw off (which is basically what it will be doing if it acts against UN reccomendations), then the UN must respond in tern to the US...Maybe take away some powers of the US within the UN? Who knows. There has to be a real incentive for the US to follow UN ruling.

The US is not above the UN...well, at least it shouldn't be...

Edit: Just FYI: I am a conservative if you were wondering.
