NDP on Venezuela 

I am so sorry to see the NDP follow the US lead on Venezuela.  OK, no invasion, but everything but. The NDP appears to take its foreign policy from the media. Canada’s mainstream media (MSM) almost exclusively presents the US State Department viewpoint on foreign policy, especially in the Americas. With regard to Venezuela the MSM has been controlling the public perception of Venezuela with outright lies for 20 years. All other views aren’t open for discussion. (Have you seen any reported?) Until progressives, if they ever do, overthrow the oligarchy that runs our political parties nothing much will change with Canada’s foreign policy. Such good colonials . . . from obedient and nasty enforcers of the British (and French) Empire to something equal for the New Romans, south of the border ... (explicative omitted).
