New word this week: Ken Taylor was a Shambassador in Tehran

The world has now been informed that the Canadian Embassy in Teheran several decades ago was not only not representative of the Canadian people, as usual, but more strangely, was actually an outpost of the CIA. Ken Taylor, the Ambassador, was actually spying for the CIA.

This was not news to some Canadians, because the CIA has for long had an agreement with the Canadian government, to spy on Canadians, then to release this information to Ottawa in exchange for information gathered by the Canadians about Americna citizens. This evades the laws of both countries which forbid the governments to spy on their own citizens.

This information was supplied to me by a former Deputy Commissioner of the RCMP, Rod Stamler.
