President Reagan TALKING *CRAZY*
"Through the early 1980s ..., the Cold War had
been steadily going into its darkest days ... .
President Ronald Reagan was a great storyteller
... . But his outlook was dominated ... by what I
can only call an obsession with communism. ...
I remember, for instance, his first meeting with
French president François Mitterrand at the
Economic Summit that I chaired at Montebello
in 1981. ... We were debating East-West issues
and Mitterand was advocating some measures
to improve relations with the Soviet Union. At
that moment, Reagan launched into one of his
anecdotes about his time as president of Actors
Equity in Hollywood in the 1940s. His story con-
cerned a priest who had allegedly been trained
in Moscow as an agent of the KGB in order to
spread discord among the actors in the union.
After the meeting, Mitterand came to me and
said, 'What planet is that man living on? Does
he really believe that the Soviets would bring
an American priest to Moscow in order to send
him back to be a spokesman for Actors Equity?' "

"the Gorbachev revolution"
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 352)
"Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in Moscow
just after I left office, and I watched with admi-
ration as almost singlehandedly he began to
defuse tensions and put an end to the Cold
War. It took a lot of courage, and rendering
that service to humanity caused a lot of pain
to his country, pain that the West in general
was slow to recognize."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 350)
"I was in Britain and France in the 1950s, and
even then they still maintained some controls.
So we capitalist nations realized in our own
cases that you could only decontrol a tightly
managed economy very slowly. And yet here
we were sending all kinds of zealous Thatch-
erite and Reaganite advisers to tell the Soviet
Union that there was no option but converting
instantly to a free market system: ... And of
course that created economic as well as poli-
tical chaos.
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 352)
Mr. Gorbachev, THE MAN OF GLASNOST
(гла́сность), THE MAN OF PERESTROIKA (перестро́йка), was THE MAN that ENDED
THE COLD WAR and DRAMATICALLY RE-
DUCED THE THREAT OF NUCLEAR WAR-
FARE which "essentially" was what what the
Cold War was all about.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glasnost
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perestroika
Mr. Gorbachev was THE MAN of the 20th
CENTURY who *SAVED* THE WORLD
from THE PROSPECT OF NUCLEAR WARFARE.
WE, in Canada, *KNEW* Mr. Gorbachev
was THE *KEY* to ending THE COLD WAR.
WE "defrosted" THE COLD WAR in Canada.
I'm very happy I can say *I* was INSTRUMENTAL
in the "defrosting" THE COLD WAR in Canada.
THANK YOU, Mr. Gorbachev.
Слава Россия!
Спасибо.
FOOTNOTE: what has not been said about THE
GORBACHEV REVOLUTION is
that it TRANSFORMED Russia
into THE *MOST* CHRISTIAN
NATION.
Re: THE *CANADO-AMERICAN* RELATIONSHIP
THE ONLY ADVICE that Pierre Elliott Trudeau
gave to Mulroney was this: "don't be subser-
vient to the American government ... ."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 358)
He goes on to say: "And I think, as it
turned out, Mulroney did choose to
move CanadaU.S. relations in direc-
tions that generally are too subser-
vient to the will of the American
Government of the day."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 360)
Canada's *THOUGHTLESS* SUBSERVIENCE

THE *FULL* ADOPTION OF U.S. HOMELAND

*WITHOUT* PUBLIC AUTHORIZATION given
that it's SO INVASIVE+SO EXTENSIVE+SO

UNCLE SAM.

HOW *TWISTED* is that?
SO, *WHERE* is CANADA'S PLACE in the world
TODAY?
With Harper, RIGHT *UNDER* THE BOOT OF
UNCLE SAM - right where the USA wants us
to be.
With theÉ(eh)PC Canadiana Law Canada
will give UNCLE SAM THE BOOT!

the EURO DROPS in value due largely to
THE FOOLISH WILLINGNESS of *ZOMBIE*
NATO countries to *WANTONLY* follow
the USA into battle "anywhere" AT A *TRE-

THE DANGER OF Nuclear Warfare
"The danger of tensions somehow slipping
out of control and escalating into nuclear
war seemed increasingly real."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 332)
"I had written abut the mindless horror of
nuclear war in 'Cité Libre' in the 1950s and
1960s. I had demonstrated against nuclear
war as a student and as a teacher. Many
years later, I would visit the devastation of
Hiroshima."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 332)
"When I became prime minister in 1968,
Canada had nuclear weapons under a ...
arrangement with the United States ... .
One of my aims as prime minister was to
get rid of these weapons. It took a while,
but by the time I left office in 1984, Cana-
da once again had an entirely nuclear-
free military."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 333)
" ... we are ... the first nuclear-armed
country to have chosen to divest itself
of nuclear weapons."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 333)
Trudeau's Peace Initiative
"I was for peace before I entered politics
and I'm not going to wait until I'm out be-
fore speaking out and trying to get things
changed."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, pages 335, 336)
"I went ahead and announced my peace
initiative at the University of Guelph on
October 27 (1983)."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 336)
"... the peace of the world
is based on stability."
(MEMOIRS: Pierre Elliott Trudeau, page 352)
