Well, the UN General Assembly didn't see the full-court walkout of Western nations that some were anticipating for Ahmadinejad's speech.
Only one diplomatic mission walked out; the Canadians.
The American's didn't bother attending, because as every thinking person knows, there's no point talking to your enemies.
The Israelis didn't bother attending either, but at least they had a legitimate excuse in Yom Kippur.
As for the Canadians, they are in the process of downgrading their entire diplomatic infrastructure anyway, so perhaps they were just ordered to leave so the Canadian government could save a bit on wages.
In the event, a certain J. Baird from Ottawa won the Falling Downs Walk-Out Pool.
