On liberal fascists
"It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their consciences." -- C. S. Lewis

Wonder of that right includes steak? If so, then I really need to quit my job so I can afford it.

Let's stop sending food to other countries, because this UN rep wants us to improve our own record. Works for me.
I believe Canada already has a social net for those in need. Perhaps the food choices are to limited for the UN upper crust sponges.
Let all pile at public's paid for CBC where lavish foods are at; go there eat free even sleep there.
I am positive that the media messengers for the ndp/lib wouln't dare disallow 'a peasant in hunger' from outside the Berlin wall(CBC), enter the paid for public's dormaine.
I don’t see what the big deal is here…..Canada is already the world’s welfare state! I mean we take in hundreds of thousands of immigrants a year form third world countries and give them free health care, free housing, free food, free cloths and free education just to name a few. I think were doing pretty good. Look how well we have treated omar khadr and his family who came here as refugees or immigrants to destroy the infidel!
And just where does this precious little man eat when he goes on these 'missions'? Would love to see his itinerary including menus.
This reminds me of a conversation I took part in back in the 1960's around a campfire with a bunch of "counter-culture" types in Vancouver.
I don't remember the details, but one fellow opined,"no one should have to pay for food,man".
I was astonished,and asked him where he thought food came from. He didn't have a reply,so I told him,"food comes from farmers,and do you have ANY idea how hard they have to work to produce it"?
I sensed a silence in the group,and no one spoke, so I ended the conversation with, " no one should have to work hard to provide you with anything you don't pay for. How in hell do you expect the producers to survive?"
I left them sitting there stunned,and I wasn't invited to join that group again.
I guess I was cruel and insensitive.
UN officials still spout the same BS as stoned hippies did back in the 60's.
How disappointing.
I'd like to know exactly how Canada came to be the first developed country on De Schutter's list of targets. I'm guessing he was heavily influenced by Canadian "food security", anti-poverty and "human rights" flakes, fanatics and activists. See for example this schedule of meetings where the Ottawa event was chaired by Amnesty Int'l nitwit big cheese Alex Neve.
Do you realize that the way this UN bureaucrat expressed this 'right' is almost directly from Sharia?
Don't take my word for it - look it up...many places.
It is repeated by an Islamist Sheil that food is a human right under Sharia at about the 1 1/2 minute mark of this video: http://blazingcatfur.blogspot.ca/2012/05/dr-wafa-sultan-exposes-islamic-values.html
Does this mean that the UN is attempting to impose Sharia on Canada?
I am a Liberal (generally) and even I think this guy is totally out to lunch. It makes me think the whole programme he is responsible for is a crock and he discredits the UN.
"... he discredits the UN."
For an organization as corrupt and discredited as the UN already is, that's really saying something.
Xanthippa,
From the sound of it, that Islamist clown could have been one of the chief drafters of the UN human rights charter. It's all collectivist, fascist boilerplate.
Canada and its food. Good or bad doesn't matter.
great work
