Axworthy leads the charge in Canada s bid for a spot on Security Council by Paul Samyn National reporter Ottawa foreign affair water Lloyd Axworthy is mounting a full court press in Hopes of winning Canada a coveted seat on the powerful United nations Security Council. Axworthy will travel to the United nations twice this week where he will further Canada s Case for membership among the diplomatic heavyweights in a key speech to the general Assembly. I be been in lots of campaigns but this is by far the most intriguing Axworthy said. The Campaign involves wooing 185 countries a courtship that takes place at the United nations in new York and in the embassies and corridors of Power throughout the world. Canada s bid has been years in the making and has involved everyone from prime minister Jean Chretien to a list of special envoys such As Manitoba senator Gil Mol Gat. But unlike most political campaigns cruises and free trips have become this Battle for votes that will determine which two countries from the Region encompassing Western Europe and North America Are admitted to the exclusive club. One of Canada s competitors Greece invited in delegates for a one week tour of the country. The other challenger the Netherlands organized a Moonlight cruise Down the East River in new York and provided free admission to a performance by the Royal concert Gebow orchestra of Amsterdam. By comparison Canada s Effort seems tame tickets to see Cirque Dusoleil in new York. However Canada would seem to have history on its Side As the country s bid for a Security Council seat has never been denied. Canada has served on the Security Council about every 10 years -1948-49,1958-59,1967-68,1977-78 and 1989-90.
