Burma - Myanmar - A Dictatorship by any Other Name...
Today's CBC Radio program, The Sunday Edition, takes a look at whether aid should be delivered to the Burmese people regardless of the intransigence of that country's "government". More information is available from the CBC's website. This is a country where it's own government won't or can't help disaster victims and continues to refuse outside help. Do we use the rather tenuous principle of respect for a nation's sovereignty to do nothing or do we move in to help despite everything the military junta is doing to prevent outside aid from getting to the people affected by this disaster?
