Silly Little Country

CBC Whines About Pakistan Aid

At least most of the reporting I have watched complains about why we are not running to donate to Pakistan.
Hmm - let me count the ways. Or let someone else do so.
Even they insist on a nutty 'image deficit' when the problem is 'reality deficit'.
What was the Pakistani contribution to support for the Manitoba floodings of the last few years? I wager many Pakistani emigrants suffered.
I think when they become a grown-up country we'll be a lot more interested in supporting them in extremis. The nice thing about the world right now is that so many other countries are becoming grown-up.
