On Testicular Fortitude, Jason Kenney-style
Kudos to Conservative MP Jason Kenney, for taking a detour as a member of Canada's touring delegation in Asia.
The Honourable Member for Calgary Southeast, defying Chinese security, paid his respects to the deceased Chinese reformist Zhao Ziyang by attending the latter's residence and offering condolences.
Kenney is consistently one of Parliament's strongest advocates for democracy and political liberty; it's unfortunate (and ironic) that Paul Martin's repudiation of Kenney's actions was far more incisive than the kid-glove treatment he has given China's leaders with respect to that country's brutal supression of individual rights and democratic activism.

Jason Kenney is by far one of the more impressive members of the Conservative team.
What a disgrace it is having Paul Martin standing up for Chinese oppressors, rather than support a fellow member of the Canadian House of Commons.
Of course he did fail to remove Judy Sgro back in October and contiunes to support her...
