unfortunately Hr. Leivat seems to have been left behind!

Most of the "democracies" of the world are now plutocracies!

This is particularly evident with the majority of the G7 and EU member countries...

Except Poland, Hungary, or Serbia

go get your 5th Vax and remember to wear a mask everywhere ...

What I’d like to know is when EWR went on the FSB payroll… interested in the answers

since when is populism "undemocratic" unless of course, it is not in line with your "intellect"

If you knew me you knew me, you would know that I'm neither pro-Russia nor anti-Ukkie.

I'm very anti-plutocracy.

Perhaps you could comment on the deputy PM position on her grandfather's being an editor of a pro-Nazi newspaper during WW2?

Or how a member of the SS was celebrated in the House of Commons?

Mis?

Just curious exactly how a member of the Ukrainian Waffen SS ever gained entry into Canada in the first place.

"First, the incident shows how the virtue-signaling imperative to support Project Ukraine supersedes all other values and considerations. The logic works backwards as follows: Ukraine is good, therefore Ukrainian nationalism is good. If someone is a Ukrainian nationalist, therefore, they must be good. Inconvenient facts such as Junka’s service in the Waffen-SS or even that the father of Ukrainian nationalism, Stepan Bandera, was a Nazi collaborator, are mere historical details to be swept aside or airbrushed out, as Western media sometimes do to the photos of Ukrainian soldiers displaying Nazi symbols on their uniforms.

Stripping away all of the present conflict’s historical context and complexity creates a simplistic binary: one must support either Ukrainian nationalism or the invader’s brute conquest. As this framing is reinforced over and over by the mainstream media and online partisans, any effort to seek a greater level of understanding becomes suspect. Do you have any deeper questions about the causes of the war or the potential paths to peace? You must be “pro-Russian.” For most liberals, and certainly Canadian politicians, it is safer to indulge in historically ignorant virtue signaling than to risk being called a Putin apologist – even if it results in the occasional moment of humiliation from cheering a Nazi."

No comment on the Soros/Schwaub owned judges, prosecutors, bureaucrats, cabinet members, heads of state manipulating/undermining democracies?

"Michael Chomiak, Freeland’s maternal grandfather whom she’s repeatedly cited as a political inspiration, edited a Nazi newspaper for Ukrainian exiles in occupied Krakow called Krakivski Visti, which was printed on a press seized from a Jewish owner.

Despite the equivocations of Liberal partisans, these facts aren’t in dispute. Freeland, in fact, helped edit a 1996 academic paper on the depiction of Jews in Krakivski Visti, written by her uncle, University of Alberta scholar John-Paul Himka.

At some point, Freeland decided it was politically useful to present the elder Chomiak as an avowed liberal democrat and the “most passionate” of Canadian patriots. When Chomiak’s history resurfaced in 2017, no doubt with some help from Russian authorities, Freeland claimed it was all a bunch of Russian propaganda."

"Whatever we find out, one thing is certain: Vladimir Putin was handed a massive propaganda victory.

He can now point to footage of a NATO member’s parliament honoring a Waffen SS veteran as proof of his narrative that Russia is fighting a sacred war against Western-backed Nazis in Ukraine.

How could such a sorry spectacle have taken place? The answer points to contradictions within Canada’s multicultural settlement."

Toronto Star article March 2017

Freeland KNEW about her grandfather's Nazi history as her uncle had documented it in 1996 and Freeland "proof-read" article.

https://www.thestar.com/opinio...

"Russia routinely argues that its enemies in the current Ukrainian standoff are neo-Nazis. Freeland, a vocal backer of Ukraine in that standoff is seen by Moscow as too friendly to its adversaries. For supporters of Russian President Vladimir Putin, the Chomiak story was a gift.

But it was neither Russian disinformation nor false news. It was true. Freeland’s grandfather had worked with the Nazis. The newspaper he edited did publish anti-Semitic material.

Documents attesting to this fact exist in an Alberta archive, according to the Ottawa Citizen. Freeland’s uncle, a historian, had written about it in a 1996 academic journal.

And, as the Globe and Mail eventually reported, Freeland has known of her grandfather’s wartime activities for at least two decades."
