Laas is a true hero24 Aug 2021 12:15
Laas Leivat is a hero who has fearlessly fought for our community for 50 years and still, he has to endure cowardly fringe whack-nut losers who snipe from the anonymity of this creepy 1990s EKRE web platform.

Laas used to be a harsh critic of authoritarianism and government censorship.
Lately he seems to have lost his critical eye when it comes to matters in Canada.
Since those full page Government of Canada ads began running in Eesti Elu during the COVID pandemic - they seem quiet about Canadian politics.... as you'd expect from a state-funded outlet.
