Dear Prime Minister Harper,

I am writing to protest the C$300 million that Canada has committed to grant the PA.

Below is an article by Middle East expert Daniel Pipes, who gives the reason for my objection better than I ever could put in writing.

I find it upsetting that Canada is transferring C$300 million of our tax dollar to the PA, even as such Arab countries as the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Libya float on a sea of petrodollars. I find it doubly upsetting that on a per capita basis, Canada with a population of approx 33 million donates infinitely more than either the EU or the US.

Sincerely,

Dr Joseph Alexander Norland
Ottawa, Ont., Canada
