NOT THE WAY TO GET MY VOTE

Opposition attack Tories over foreign policy - CTV.

1. The Prime Minister has gone to Asia and made human rights, with China and others, a priority.(See Mader for some good analysis.)

2. The Prime Minister has shown a commitment to winning the war in Afghanistan.

3. The Prime Minister has supported a balanced condemnation of rights abuses in the middle east.

4. The Prime Minister has shown clear support for building Canada's military capabilities.

There are things the Conservative government can be criticized on. But attacking the substance and style of the government's foreign policy is not going to win favour with me.
