How big of Harper who refuses to ratify the landmines treaty, a Canadian initiative, so he spends our money to remove a few cluster bombs while anyone in the country who wants to is warmly welcome to keep manufacturing and selling all manner of landmines. Things come out of both sides of his mout

Canada is planning to answer a plea by the tiny South Asian country of Laos and restart funding to help it clear the deadly remnants of the millions of cluster bombs that were dropped on the nation during the Vietnam War and still litter the country, The Canadian Press has learned.
Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird is to announce a $1-million contribution, to be managed through a United Nations agency, during a trip to Laos on Tuesday.
Canada cut its funding to the international effort to help clear cluster munitions from Laos in 2012 after contributing more than $2 million between 1996 and 2011.
The announcement comes after The Canadian Press travelled to Laos this past spring to document the country's chronic cluster bomb problem, a modern-day legacy of the Vietnam War.
