TASS Russia News Agency provides the latest scoops on CAHSMUN 2018. This time, it is no different.
The Commonwealth of Nations presents a very different scene to CAHSMUN 2018. Not only does its form of debate greatly differ from all other committees, with its triple-delegation, the topics discussed are also bizarre, to say the least.
Only one hour into the first committee session, the Commonwealth of Nations have begun to discuss the apex of American culture: the pizza. In response to the controversial topic of pineapple pizza, Nambia’s head of government expressed his personal opinion that “pineapple is a fruit, and therefore does not belong on pizza.” Hearing this, the president of Uganda passionately and forcefully retorted with “TOMATO IS A FRUIT, SON.”
This launched a round of heated debate over the well-loved supplement, the tomato. The delegates ask themselves: is the tomato truly a fruit, or just a colourful vegetable?
Riding the flow of discussion, the delegates of Commonwealth could not resist debating over the pizza as well. Most importantly, the delegates could not seemingly come to an agreement on whether or not the pineapple deserves a place on the true American delicacy, pizza. The world leaders of the Commonwealth were quick to express their opinions on this popularly debated topic, resulting in a fast-paced and heated debate that will undoubtedly be remembered by all those present.
In the heat of the moment, even a staff member joined the discussion. In an impassioned speech, he states: “If we were to ban pineapples on pizza, what next? Will we start banning cheese? What about tomatoes? Do we want to just ban everything on pizza?” He concludes with praise for the pineapple saying that “the pineapple is what gives more variety to the toppings that are allowed on a pizza.”
Although the committee was unable to reach unanimous resolution, the many thought provoking points mentioned will likely be recalled in future debates. At the end of the day, Commonwealth may not be what it seems to be.
