An Apology from Canada to Palestine and the Rest of the World:

The 10 Most Shameful Minutes in Canadian History




 

Minister of Foreign Affairs John Baird Canada Votes Against Palestine's Observer Status UN Resolution


On 29 November 2012, John Baird, Minister for Foreign Affairs of Canada, addressed the United Nations General Assembly on the Question of Palestine and accused the UN of abandoning its principles by recognizing Palestine.

In Canada, however, three times as many Canadians supported the Palestinian bid as those who opposed it. We understand that when two parties are negotiating for peace they must be allowed to come to the table as equals, which was not the case when one party was recognized as a State and the other not.

Please accept our humble apologies for what our government has done. I can assure you that many of us are elated and celebrating much like the rest of the world.
 

CONGRATULATIONS, PALESTINE.
