    U.S. not invited to Canada's WTO summit

    Canada has not included the United States in an upcoming meeting aimed at saving the international trading system because it doesn't share the views of the 13 invited countries, says the new Canadian trade minister.Canada will host senior ministers from 13 "like-minded" countries for a two-day discussion in Ottawa later this month to brainstorm ways to reform the World Trade Organization, said Jim Carr, Canada's newly appointed international trade diversification minister.
    Carr said the group of countries he's convened ultimately wants to persuade Washington of the continued usefulness of the WTO, but for now the best way forward is without the U.S. in the room.
    "We think that the best way to sequence the discussion is to start with like-minded people, and that's whom we have invited and they're coming," Carr told The Canadian Press.
    "Those who believe that a rules-based system is in the interests of the international community will meet to come up with a consensus that we will then move out into nations who might have been more resistant."
    Asked what his message to Americans is in the meantime, Carr replied: "That a rules-based system is good for them too."

    At which point will Americans realize that creating an unaccountable institution that is able to pass its liability on to tax-payers is immoral and attracts sociopaths?
