Canadians are being shot and killed

In the past year the increase in violence against Canadians travelling to Mexico including 3 murders and 2 additional shootings over the weekend is really troublesome.

I checked out the Foreign Affairs Canada website under "Protecting Canadians" on their splash page and found a bunch of stuff on the Afghan mission.

It appears that Pete MacKay and Canada's New Government have a lot of time for the propaganda war on the Afghan Mission - but can't be bothered to intercede with a friendly ally with which we have close ties and have signed many international agreements to ensure the travelling safety of Canadians abroad.

According to the victim's familiy:

"Peter MacKay's talking about that he's contacted me or the family and he's going to have a meeting with the Mexicans... What for? There's no investigation. There's no paperwork. There's nothing."

How many Canadians have to die or get shot before Steve and Petey start taking this seriously?
