Look at the tin foil hat specialists in here. Lapping in Western luxury/NATO’s safety blanket as they spread misinformation. How quaint.
This show is pathetic
Bob Rae – what a waste of intelligence – he obviously sold out decades ago. Why do these people get the time of day?
Russia and Ukraine is not a two party there two are countries the war did Happened between two countries nation not in two parties if the case have been about two party than why
all European and Canada America and their world allies UN unable to stop that or to made peace if their has been war between two party even with out UN involvement that two party been
able to salve their problem before invasion Happened from Russian military to Ukraine.
that better to we say this war is between two countries war and both their supporters and now getting super dangerous and Huge concern To UN to if UN could stop it soon.
and too ever concerns to All wide world nation safety and Security. this means dangerous war between two nebeghores and around that but not between two party never at All.
an any means UN must make peace if its war between two party or between two countries war is war the world nation parying for peace soon.
!
In the west everywhere on the news we are told how weak and badly organized the Russian army is.
So why would we need to spend more on defense???? Instead we could just choose to save little there.
Democracy – rule of the elites?
Just go to Kurt Volker's wikipedia page, a brief read will show you need to take Volker's opinion with a box of salt, then sweep it up and dump it in the wastebin. If Volker's saying Russia is losing, that means it's almost over. This was never a war Ukraine could win, but NATO led them down the primrose path, led them to believe they would ever be a member… and now they're standing back and watching the body count carefully. They'd like higher, please! Kurt Volker alum of the Madeline Albright School of Humanitarian Decency.
I don't feel less safe?
Russian could sit back and boom the place if they wanted, Canadian Military meet June 2018 with Ukraine Neo Nazsi Part of there Military AZOV Battalion, How do you think they treated ethnic Russians since 2014 all trained up by the west with weapons cash etc. Ukraine is the most corrupt Country in Europe and Zelenky with his 33 million dollar villa and over 1 Billion hiding away (Pandora Papers) is being bank rolled by Ukraine's biggest Oligarch , PETRO is seen in PIC with fully dressed Ukraine Neo Nazis from there Military , They left fully trained filled with weapons' NEO Nazsi at his door step for almost a decade comiting crimes against his people . Americas War Machine at Work. Why not play the video of Ukraine's Military Parade where tens of thousands are cheering on there AZOV Batalion FAR RIGHT NEO NAZSI
putin war criminal
Putin Wants The Ukraine's extremely rich and complementary mineral resources? The country is abundant with reserves of coal, iron ore, natural gas, manganese, salt, oil, graphite, sulfur, kaolin, titanium, nickel, magnesium, timber, and mercury… That he can sell to China… Wake Up People, One Dose Not Start A WAR & Rocket and Bombs everything W/O Wanting To STEAL Something Because Of Their Mindless Greed….

“I spent ALL the money, and some, on TV commercial campaign ads with me in them. I can’t afford to dump Trudeau right now. Thanks for the free TV time Eric! My wife wanted to see how wearing pink would fly with the public, without draining the NDP bank account. Kind of a test run for pink!”🤥
It bothers me to have something that wears laundry on its head that thinks it's going to tell Canadian people what to do
I feel bad for the Ukraine. But seriously we have our problems as well. Let Europe fix it's only problems must of the European countries are against Russia anyways including , Germany and France
Only god is super power
Has to come to the agreement that at least Putin can say to his people what accomplishment he did from this war and then leave the rest of Ukraine alone.
I wonder if Putin ever thinks to himself, ….I can’t believe how the Canadian media is helping my war strategy
I wonder if citizens in the “West” consent to the higher cost of living, just for us to involve ourselves in some stupid war across the ocean.
Mr. Volker is the opposite of what is necessary and sufficient in this war with a fine haircut financed by our tax money, suit and tie. A face without serious war injuries is proof that Mr. Volker is an unscrupulous diplomat of higher vagabond existence. Sorely needed in the West is a proven warhorse that packs an unrelentingly hard punch and doesn't become a soft wimp in comfort zones.
Stop wasting our taxes on neo Nazi, and stop importing that into Canada!
why should canada support nazis? anything to do with money? shame.
open your eyes and turn on your brains: USA + UK + NATO are using the citizens of Ukraine as cannon fodder to weaken the Russian army, and then attack Russia in full! Ukraine is just a consumable for USA purposes. THEY NEED THE RESOURCES OF RUSSIA! what is not clear here? EVERYTHING IS SIMPLE!
Lucky Canada is not black listed by Putin.He has enough nuclear missile for our government Trudeau.
Stop Criminal and terrorist Putin from killing innocents civilians and bombardment of residential buildings!
– Send Ukrainians aircrafts and advanced air defense systems and anti ship missiles ASAP to defend themselves.
– Hungry and thirsty Ukrainians without electricity and heating are under the heavy bombardment of vacuum and cluster munitions bombs and cruise and hypersonic missiles from the air and ground and sea every hour!
Nato are all psychopaths
Nato needs to pay the people of the middle east countries for all the damage they did for 2 decades and that fool needs to shut up
stop talking. save people in ukraine. save people in mariupol.
Simply said "We're all 🖕k"
USA is the pinacle of hipocresy they shouls stop their "Cowboy" practices and go back to woork on their internal problems , that will defenetlly cool off things for the benefit off all, practice what you preach!
No doubt Nato and the Eu are hoping that they can keep talking until Putin gets whatever it is he wants… then after a respectable time the sanctions will be lifted and all will be forgiven and forgotten … think China and tibet
U.S/ Nato. Do More. Russia War Crimes are enless They Kill Civilians God Bless Ukraine. 🙏 ✝️ ..
Until Russia rebuilds Ukraine, give them nothing
West must support Ukraine.
Curt for President…great mind and ❤
They should stop supporting. Problem solved
how can ukraine win a war win his enemies are his friends , america and europe. Russia is supposed to be the allies of ukraine here but because ukraine has a comedian leader more aligned with western kind of life , he prefer the west than his blood brother russian . zelensky forget the rule of business that if you are a rival , i will let you down silently , that|s europe when their agri products competed by ukraine and universities of europe began losing students because of ukraine|s no entrance exam result was 16 k indian students , 12 k african|s 10 k chinese students study at ukraine , and american oil companies wanted european markets , so war in ukraine let europe stop buying russian oil and gas and america is ready to deliver. zelensky never get that logic because of his cabinets mostly from movie industries better in making movies than foreign relation issue ,. the victims is the people of ukraine .
Let's be clear about this: Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky is Jewish and has zero ties to any neo-Nazi movement
It already has a Jewish prime minister, Volodymyr Groysman, and if he stays on after Mr. Zelensky is sworn in, Ukraine will be the only country .
Nato has nothing to do with it. Ukraine is not a nato country. That’s all there is to it
They are preparing us ….Nato wants to go to war…they tell us Russia is losing and winning at the same time
Pray for Peace Happy 2022
Ukraine needs air support
Are democratic countries ready to donate to the poor innocent Russians ( children, elderly, unemployed people) who are going to endure sanctions decided by the most powerful people on this planet? Disgrace ! Western media have turned many generous people into brainless sheep.
Putin plays his game of bluff and NATO folds….Russians must take care of this sociopath….
unless Ukraine nazsi army stop killing its own people Russia needs to step it up and a nuke if the killings don't stop wake up people
