NOTE: The overall sound on this recording is stronger than that on the taper's recording from the previous night ("U2: Call Prime Minister Martin at 613-992-4211").  However, like the recording from the first night in Vancouver, this one favors the high end.  The recording is crisp and there is little audience noise.

Bono agains draws attention to Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin's broken promise on foreign aid, this time invoking the name of former Prime Minister Lester B. Pearson, a Canadian whose family roots were in Ireland, who won the Nobel Peace Price in 1957.  The 0.7% reference in the title is the percentage of Canada's Gross Domestic Product that Martin's government had promised to allocate for the erradication of world poverty before renegging.
