Harper is in his own private Idaho... The case of the embassy in Iran is worth considering. What does Canada gain — what do our friends, including Israel, gain — from shutting down our channels of communication with a country that is unquestionably powerful, assertive and internally divided? What do the friends of democracy in Iran gain by having another door closed? It’s not impertinent to ask what would have happened in 1979 to the six Americans who became Canadian “house guests” in Tehran if we had shut our embassy because we disapproved of the regime.
