Canada Recognises Armenian Genocide

Canada's parliament has passed a resolution recognizing the Armenian genocide.

The Globe and Mail has a story on it, and the apparent opposition of the government, which tried to get all its MPs to vote against.

Tension in the chamber was palpable; people were edgy. But the motion passed, 153 to 68.
