anticlimates Posted March 12, 2005 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 You might remember seeing a previous topic on an Open letter to Condi Rice by Lloyd Axworthy. Or..not.

It's great to have you representing the country. We needed a "Fox News-like" approach to get them to pay a little attention, and it worked. To those of you who would like to hear Lloyd talking about his letter to Condi on the CBC, here's the link: click on "Listen to Mary Lou's interview with Lloyd Axworthy."] Class act all the way. He even hoped to exchange a valentine with Condi next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
