Canadian laws are for Canadians. We do not rule the world. We or even the UN or US cannot remove every dictator. Removal of a dictator does not mean the country will not be again taken over be another more repressive dictatorship. The countries people are responsible to lead a revolt against these leaders. Help can be provided but I believe it is necessary for the people to be ready and prepared to lead the revolt. Only dictatorships that practice genocide or other severe human rights violations or those that threaten other countries can be removed by foreign interests.
