Anti-American Canadian ambassador tenders resignation
By Judi McLeodThursday, January 26, 2006

A black cloud was lifted off Canadian-American relations yesterday: Frank McKenna, anti-American Canadian ambassador to the United States announced his resignation.

McKenna, in the diplomatic post for less than a year, was a harsh critic of the U.S. ever since his arrival in Washington.

One month into the job, he fired off a letter to Newt Gingrich for his reference on Hannity & Colmes regarding terrorists crossing over the border from Canada into the U.S.

Only last October, McKenna stunned a Toronto audience when he called the U.S. government "dysfunctional".
