    Canada has a huge Ukrainian population, we’re staunch allies with the US (who is firmly on Ukraine’s side now that the Manchurian Candidate is out of office), and Russia is obviously the aggressor in this war. Of course we’re going to side with Ukraine.

    Russia’s only hope was to convince the world that apathy was easier than getting involved. But they did a shit job of it

    Meanwhile, Ottawa has yet to follow through on a promise six months ago to try seizing funds it says are held by Russian oligarch Roman Abramovich. No application had been filed in any provincial court as of last month.

    Mkay, well… Canada better get a move on and pack up their bags to ditch Russia. I’m sure Putin will seize all Canadian assets in their regime whenever they please, just like with other companies.
