It also probably helped that McGuinty came to talk business rather than security. The Pakistanis crave more foreign investment but resent being lectured by westerners on terrorism.

It also helps to explain why Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty has been so warmly – some might say effusively – received in Pakistan after spending 10 days in India.

The Pakistanis are enormously proud people, but it is a pride mixed with an inferiority complex vis-à-vis their bigger and more successful neighbour, India.

India has more people (1.1 billion, compared to 160 million for Pakistan); its army is more powerful (although both now possess nuclear arms); and it has been more successful economically.
