Canada imposes sanctions on N. Korea

[Posteritatis]

Canada and the United States offered their full support to South Korea as the country's president cut trade to North Korea Monday in retaliation for a torpedo attack that killed 46 sailors.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper said in a statement that Canada's sanctions will include enhanced restrictions on trade, investment and other bilateral relations with North Korea.

The Canadian government will also suspend high-level visits to Canada by North Korean officials.

"Canada has condemned the reckless North Korean regime for this egregious violation of international law and its blatant disregard of its international obligations," Harper said in the statement.

1. Let's finish the Afghanistan war

Before getting drawn into another.

2. This won't draw us into a war...

America will not need our assistance if they needed to go to war against N Korea in my opinion.
N Korea has a large army, but they are grossly outmatched in technology. Bottom line, you attack another countries military, you are provoking a response, should not be a surprise to the N Korean leadership.

They didn't need our help in Afghanistan, but we're there

Even if the North Korean army folds up like a cheap tent, a vast occupation army might well be required. Experience proves that's where the some of the worst problems are found.

Canada does business with North Korea? Harper makes the Liberal hacks who hang out here look brilliant.
