Regime change? Another war? No thanks. If North Korea is as bad as described here, then it is fully and only up to North Koreans to determine their own future. If they prefer things as they are, then that is their bed to lie in. Foreign intervention is an imposed solution and thus by definition dictatorial. We have enough problems here in Canada--too many. Let's not pretend we can solve the problems of a distant nation-state, of which we all know painfully little, when we are not solving our own problems at home.
Otherwise, I really respect your work, how you courageously stood up, and I think you have been an inspiration. Don't let my criticism on this issue take away from any of that.
Yes, I guess we only stick our noses in the business of other countries when there’s financial gain. We pretend to be humanitarian. I don’t think North Koreans want that life, the country is a prison. No media exposure also, no awareness. There are so many underreported issues here too, of course.

Thank you both!
