Should Canada maintain a presence at the United Nations?
The UN. is an organization of governments founded in 1945 after World War II. The organization’s objectives include promoting peace and security, protecting human rights and the environment and providing humanitarian aid in cases of famine, natural disaster, and armed conflict. Recent U.N. interventions include the Sri Lankan civil war in 2009 and the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. Canada joined the U.N. in 1948 as a founding member nation. Canada is the eighth largest financial contributor to the UN and contributes $81 million annually.

Yes, but I also think that we need to improve our peacekeeping/peacekeepers and stay less involved in conflict.

The UN is flawed and only benefits rich countries. It should be abolished.
@8L3S5RW4yrs4Y
Yes, but the United Nations should be re-worked from the ground up.
@8SYTJJS4yrs4Y
The Un security council should be abolished because Canadian involvement will not matter until the veto initiative is gone
@8SYMTCM4yrs4Y
Yes but only in the hopes of stopping the US from damaging the world too much

No, the UN is just an institution designed to spread capitalist propaganda and destabilize regions that disagree with former imperial powers.
