They offered over 1,000 in medical personnel and medical supplies as well as
other supplies. Yes according to what I have read, Castro offered his help
right after the hurricane and as of today we have not responded to his
request. The least that I felt our government could of done was thank him
but decline it if we in fact didnt need it.

What about the help that Cuba offered and we snub our noses at them and
didnt have the respect to even decline there help ? Here is a country
that
we dont like and doesnt like us,but they took the first step to offer
help.
I dont care for cuba,but I feel we should of atleast decline the offer
instead of ignoring it. Just my opinion

..................where are you on donations to the Katrina victims?

Maybe I missed the news but so far I have not ready about any donations
from
your Country.

Even Sri Lanka contributed cash to the need of the Katrina victims.


Canada's offers were made public about a day after the incident. Don't
remember
exactly, but they included a bunch of special mission C-130s.

I obviously missed that....and if what you say is correct, I apologize.\

So what financial commitments were made by the Canadian government?



What did they offer, Ed?

Did we actually snub them, or did we just not have a requirement and use
for the
help yet?
