The United Nations - advising Canada
It appears that the U.N.'s ideas are not popular in some Canadian circles.
I'm not surprised...
I'm not surprised...
This is from an editorial in Canada's National Post:
"Perhaps the UN's obsession with government-directed solutions can best be seen in its call on Ottawa to do more to curb the 'epidemic' of childhood obesity. Is this really an issue that Ottawa is well-placed to address? Obesity is a lifestyle problem that could most easily be cured if parents stopped feeding their children high-fat, high-sugar foods, and encouraged activities that revolve around exercise as opposed to television. It does not fall to our federal government to intrude into the kitchens and rec rooms of the nation."
