    MONTREAL - An ex-soldier who says he was poisoned while serving overseas is planning to go on a hunger strike outside the office of Canada's veterans affairs minister until he gets medical treatment.
    Or until he dies.

    Disgusting how cheap the Canadian Government can act. Going public with his story should raise awareness of the dangers of going to war and how snobbish and cheap our own government treats its returning soldiers.

    Such a fuss is made about the dead being repatriated and yet, this soldier is left in agony. Seems very unfair.
