Baird Rules Out Canadian Intervention in Syria

Canada's Foreign Affairs minister is concerned about the on-going conflict in Syria.

John Baird spent the weekend in Kenora, but took time to reflect on some of the recent happenings in the middle east.

He says the resignation of Kofi Annan as a special UN envoy to Syria should be a wake-up call for everyone.

Baird says Canada will continue to provide humanitarian aid to the country but says he has no intention in sending our troops into the war-torn region.
