UN-involved in Africa ?

Last February, the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs and International Trade released a report that alleged Canada, and CIDA in particular, has made no notable or lasting impact in Africa after 40 years and $12 billion of aid efforts.

If you guessed "pearl-clutching fetus fetishists", dingdingding!
