How can you not support democracy?

I don’t know how you could live in a democracy and be against the promotion of democracy. I guess as long as they have their freedom, who cares about all “those” people. Anyone care to comment.

Many Canadians don't think U.S. should promote democracy: poll


Canadian Press


February 22, 2005

WASHINGTON (AP) - More than three-quarters of Canadians said they didn't think the United States should try to promote the creation of democratic governments in other countries, according to an Associated Press-Ipsos poll.

U.S. President George W. Bush said in his January inaugural address that the United States would work to end tyranny and promote democracy around the world. But only 22 per cent of Canadians polled thought that would be an appropriate role for the United States.
