77 Nations Walk Out On Canada's Speech To Kyoto Conference
"OTTAWA–The government's push to abandon much of the Kyoto Protocol prompted dozens of developing countries to walk out on Canada's address during recent climate talks in Thailand, The Canadian Press has learned. The mass walkout came after the Canadian delegation suggested replacing the Kyoto Protocol with an entirely new global-warming pact, according to one of the negotiators and notes taken by others at the meeting. [...] At that point, the South African delegation stood up and led the Group of 77 developing nations – except for a group of small island states – out of the room."

By the way ... you will notice that by and large, the MSM is ignoring this story because ... well ... Canadians like to operate under the constant illusion that the entire world likes us at all times :)

At least on our side of the border we're starting to make the right noises. No real action yet, though.
