On Canadian Thanksgiving Monday, Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney gave a major foreign policy address to the faculty and students of the Virginia Military Institute. He did not mention Canada once despite the fact that his vision of U.S. global leadership is like the Hollywood-budget version of Canada's indie foreign policy sensation.

So much has already been invested in Afghanistan during the past decade that the country cannot return into the primitive, isolated state it once was. The world doesn't work that way.
