Ignatieff will deliver an off-the-record keynote address on Afghanistan on Thursday to an exlusive group of U.S. policymakers that includes Richard Holbrooke, the president 's special envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan, Liberal insiders say. http://www.ctv.ca/servlet/ArticleNews/stor...?hub=TopStories 2011 will come and go......for Afghanistan.
