Should Canada maintain a presence at the United Nations?
The UN. is an organization of governments founded in 1945 after World War II. The organization’s objectives include promoting peace and security, protecting human rights and the environment and providing humanitarian aid in cases of famine, natural disaster, and armed conflict. Recent U.N. interventions include the Sri Lankan civil war in 2009 and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. Canada joined the U.N. in 1948 as a founding member nation. Canada is the eighth largest financial contributor to the UN and contributes $81 million annually.

@9JLF2GL3mos3MO

Canada was one of the founding members of the UN, and we need to keep being there and have our influence to advance important causes throughout the world.
@9GH2KFF6mos6MO
No. The United Nations is weakening our Country and our presence has allowed the world to leech off of us and hinder our progress.

The U.N. Is a usless organization of people who are so disconnected from the reality of the real world. That over the years have seen to prolonging wars, and genocide and famine. Without ever raising a finger to help. What makes it worse when they do sent aid it usually aids the persecutors and not the victims.
