Harper would have sent troops but if Paul Martin was Prime Minister he would have sent troops to Iraq as well. Cretien was such a pussy and changed his position about sending troops 3 times as I recall - right after public opinion polls. Thankfully he stumbled on the right choice. Watching polls to help you understand the feelings of Canadians is one thing but governing by them is another.
