Prime Minister Harper has betrayed the trust of the Canadian people.

Prime Minster Harper refused to initiate an open and transparent investigation of the credible evidence presented by hundreds of professional architects, engineers and military officers which directly contradicts the US administration’s version of the events of 9/11. A petition signed by 500 Canadians was read by Libby Davies, MP for Vancouver East, during the 39th parliament; Stephen Harper was the Prime Minister at that time. Not only has Prime Minister Harper ignored such credible evidence, he has deepened Canada’s military commitment to the administration of the US and its ‘War on Terrorism’, which is based on lies and deception regarding the events of 9/11. The Prime Minister has chosen to ignore such claims. Having no expertise in the professions of architects, engineers, scientists or military officers, he cannot himself make a professional response, yet he has not ordered an unbiased and transparent professional review of the allegations by professionals that the events of 9/11 are not as stated by the US administration. Such a review could be a serious threat to the administration of the US.

Imagine what would happen if the Parliament of Canada conducted a transparent investigation of the claims made by professionals. Such an investigation would reach the citizens of the US, sparking demands for a similar investigation. This would be catastrophic for the administration of the US because it can be proven beyond reasonable doubt that the US administration is, at best, guilty of covering up and actively misrepresenting the events of 9/11; at worst, the US administration is guilty of participating in the attacks of 9/11. Our Prime Minister has ignored the credible evidence that demands a transparent investigation.

In March of 2003, leading up to the invasion of Iraq, Stephen Harper, then leader of the opposition, gave a speech in the House of Commons demanding the Canadian government assist in the illegal invasion of Iraq. His speech was exactly the same speech Prime Minister Howard of Australia read a few days earlier in the Australian parliament. At no time did Stephen Harper acknowledge that he was reading the same speech as Howard’s.

In sharp contrast to the Howard/Harper speech is that of Robin Cook, who resigned as Leader of the House in Great Britain in protest of the illegal invasion of Iraq. Robin Cook’s principled position was the correct one.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has it within his power to transform the world by ordering a transparent investigation. Lifting the veil of innocence from the minds of the Canadian people would at the same time also lift the veil of innocence from the minds of all citizens in the western democracies.

I envision that all public support of the US administration would vanish with Prime Minister Harper’s words, as no arguments could be presented in defense of the administration. The American Empire could cease to exist, because it totally depends on public support of all America’s allies—this support would disappear in an instant. As a friend often said, “The entire world can change in a New York second.” So it will be with Harper’s miracle.
