I guess the facts just don't mesh your ideology eh Libby?
Just keep in mind that if Harper was in power at the time, we'd be in Iraq at this very moment (ie: his plagiarized speech he took from Australia's PM's speech about joining in Iraq)
Regardless of how people view Jean or Martin or the Liberals (I'm not fan of the Liberals myself) regardless of what reasons Chretien had for his decisions, be that petty or logical.... in the end, he made the right choice in regards to the best interests of Canada and in regards to the US's Star Wars plans, Canada also made the right decision in not jumping on board with that idea.
Chretien said he saw no credible evidence for invading Iraq, he stood his ground when most others in the world didn't care about evidence and in the end, he was right and everybody who thought the invasion over WMD was justified, were clearly proven wrong in more ways then one.
Whether it was because he didn't like the US or Bush via Anti-Americanism, or through legit reasoning, in the end, he made the right decision for Canada and Canadians.
US officials and Canadian Conservative politicians and media outlets argued that:
".... But conservative commentators, politicians, and the business community criticized the government for substituting process for policy, letting down its closest ally, and risking American retaliation. Bush administration officials expressed disappointment and hinted at possible damage to the relationship."

They can complain all they want, but the "Process" exists for a reason and that reason is to prevent knee-jerk military reactions like the Iraq war based on fearmongering rather then evidence and facts..... and if others around the world stuck to the "process" and did things right, things wouldn't be so fuct up as they are today.
