We've said it time and again. Canada relies for 40% of its GDP on trade, and if you can't provide your country with the means to defend the trade routes, to project a certain amount of power, or as George and I have said, a ship going into the area of difficulty.... But also if you can't support the international community's effort in trying to resolve some of the lingering conflict—and that's where I'm very worried about the kinds of dismissive attitudes towards what I call the political multilateral organization. Whether it's the General Assembly or the UN Security Council, we all know there are vetos being exercised.
But at the same time, some of those efforts of the United Nations, which is a gathering of countries—it's not the UN itself that decides something. We have to rely on the UN to help us out whether in Africa, where we have some mining interests, or in Latin America, where there is the drug war and where we have even more mining interests. We are a global country because of our trade, despite the smallness of our population.
