He bluntly warned that there  will be short-term consequences. \n\n The speech stung many Liberal MPs, some of whom urged the government to  file a formal protest against the ambassador. \n\n Other Liberals believe Cellucci was only reacting to a string of  anti-American comments made by senior members of the Chr\u00e9tien  government. \n\n This isn't the first time Cellucci has criticized Canadian policy. He  has complained that Canada doesn't spend enough money on defence. \n\n         Some Liberal caucus members had a few undiplomatic things to say about  Cellucci. Scarborough-Agincourt MP Jim Karygiannis said Cellucci had no  business commenting on Canadian policies. \n\n &quot;We're the ones that speak on behalf of our electorate. Cellucci doesn't  get elected in our constituencies. He doesn't get elected in Canada,&quot;  Karygiannis said. \n\n Thirty-six Liberals lined up to speak in caucus, after an Ontario MP  argued Canada should lodge a formal protest. \n\n One camp argued the ambassador crossed the line, behaving more like a  partisan politician than a diplomat. Some even argued he should be  recalled. \n\n Other MPs said he was responding to the anti-American comments by  Liberals: cabinet minister Herb Dhaliwal calling President George W.  Bush a failed statesman and MP Carolyn Parrish calling Americans  &quot;bastards.&quot; \n\n Irwin Cotler, who represents the Montreal riding of Mount Royal, says  the prime minister has a tough job ahead of him convincing Americans  that the differences over Iraq are based on policy, not personality. \n\n         &quot;What they couldn't abide by were the kinds of statements that seemed  to suggest that Bush was worse than Saddam Hussein. Those are the kind  of hurtful and harmful references that began to resonate in the United  States,&quot; Cotler said. \n\n Chr\u00e9tien heard everyone out, before urging MPs to tone down the  rhetoric. \n\n Leadership contender Paul Martin agrees that Liberals need to choose  their words with care. &quot;Canadians are not anti-American,&quot; he said. &quot;This  government is not anti-American.&quot; \n\n In the House of Commons, Canadian Alliance Leader Stephen Harper  expressed shock that the Liberals would consider expelling Cellucci when  they've refused a U.S. request to expel Iraq's only diplomatic  representative in Canada.      &quot;Why does the prime minister not grasp that  his stance is deeply injurious to our national interest?&quot; Harper asked. \n\n Chr\u00e9tien reminded the Commons that Canadians took in 40,000  Americans after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, that Canada has  contributed to the war on terrorism by sending troops to Afghanistan and  ships to the Arabian Sea. \n\n Chr\u00e9tien said Canada will also contribute to the reconstruction of  Iraq. \n\nWritten by CBC News Online staff              \n","author":"the best defense...","parent_id":42878,"mime_type":"text\/plain","created":"2003-03-29 05:59:41","modified":"2013-11-10 23:49:27","fileurl":""}]}
