Maybe time for a UN dedicated thread?
Either way, this article on Yahoo:

I know its been sort of touched on a few times in other threads, but I would love to see either MAJOR reform at the UN, or for Canada and its allies to form a new body. Whether its ABCANZ or whatever.. countries with similar policies and ways of doing things. Everyone is a fan of saying NATO is becoming useless as well.. Maybe its time we scrapped alliances that no longer matter and make a group that can and will get things done?

Conservative MP Larry Miller -- yes the same Larry Miller who, in February, compared the long-gun registry to Hitler and Nazis --has stumbled into another controversy.
The Tory backbencher from Ontario is demanding Canada reconsider its membership in the United Nations after the world body criticized the government for its treatment of alleged war criminals, for its food security and for changes to the refugee system.
"The United Nations is an organization that was designed to work collectively to solve the major problems facing the world," Miller said in a statement, according to the National Post.
"If this is the type of action that the UN will be taking then I think that it is high time that we review our participation in the United Nations."
