point seven

this is
canada’s goal
for the percent of our gdp spent on international aid
0.7% of the GDP

closest we’ve ever gotten was .49% under the mulroney gov’t we’re down since then
, i honestly don’t know if there’s good reason for me to mention that it was under mulroney that this was accomplished, i hate to say it but i know relatively little about him or his policies, i don’t know (and i don’t want to suggest) that he’s done good or is good, just that’s when it happened

it’s well worth noting that most of the nordic countries and (world leader) holland have surpassed the one percentage point
also worth noting the states gave away .34% of their GDP as foreign aid in 2003

    mulroney sucks. don’t even mention him. he’s the reason why we have 15% tax. (it was supposed to be temporary, but here we are, 30 years later and we still have it) every one hates him and now his son hosts canadian idol. we hate him even more.
