> These are the choices Canada faces with Bush's America. Former primeminister Jean Chr�tien attempted the Swiss solution - stay out of the aggressor's wars but continue to sell him whatever he needs. Hitler was comfortable with that level of tacit support.
Nonsense. Unlike Sweden and others, Switzerland was far from "selling him whatever he needs." And Chr�tien didn't stay out of Bush's wars, even sending some troops for the coalition of the killing, although Canada's situation is far less surrounded than CH in WW2.
Hi Chris,
I'm sure the history you learned would lead you to call Walkom's claim here 'nonsense'. I am going to delay accepting your view until I finish reading volume 1 of Hans Kung's autobiography: My Struggle for Freedom.
This remarkable Swiss theologian lived through this period of history and has much to say about his country's response to Hitler.
Take care, Brian McAndrews
