A few hours before Parliament voted to legalize same sex marriage on June 28, Frank McKenna, Canada’s ambassador to the United States went on American University Radio, a National Public Radio station in Washington D.C.

Strategically, militarily, economically, could you ask another government to do more to destroy their birth rates, and 'Annual military manpower availability'?

I think not.
