Today's tonic: "Mark Carney is already staring down a history-making decision"

Today's tonic (and similar posts, where I highlight important articles published elsewhere) is back. 

 "Mark Carney is already staring down a history-making decision," by Irwin Cotler and Sir Bill Browder.  

There are many sane voices still at work around the world despite the corrosive powers of Putin, Trump and several others.  

"Seizing Russia’s frozen assets is not only legal, but is financially feasible, strategically sound, morally right, and popular among Canadians. It will strengthen international law by setting two important precedents. The first is that the right to human life and the obligation of states to uphold international peace and security ranks higher than the right for states to enjoy absolute protection of their property without accountability — no matter how else they might violate international law."
