I think we are lucky to have PM Carney. He's generating some concerns about Trump-acquiescing infringing upon privacy rights, but overall we have a well connected, serious man for serious times.

Honestly, what does Canadian internal politics pertaining to privacy rights and voter data have to do the war in Ukraine? You simply could have said "We have the right guy leading the way," rather than inject politics that has nothing to do with the war.

We have eased the politics rule because of this thread, but its discussion should pertain to the war, and the war alone.

Please refrain from it in the future. Thanks…
 
Canada to Ukraine: new military aid.

A Admiral Beez and other Canadians, this is your hard-earned money. Rest assured, they will be spent on a good cause.
Ukrainians are grateful.
Dimlee, I will be 81 this year and have spent my life with Ukrainians here in Canada. I went to high school with Ukrainian kids, served in the army (a Highland regiment!) with Ukrainians, and chuckle when I remember the court battle of Bill Konyk, when he decided to call his restaurant Hunky Bill's almost 6 decades ago and people complained that this was a derogatory name for Ukrainians. The BC Supreme court decided that he had been Hunky Bill since childhood and he could name the restaurant after himself. Bill is gone now, but the family still carries on. Ukrainians are an important part of Canada. Of course we will support Ukraine.

Sheesh, I can't even say I like my PM in these dangerous times for his support of Ukraine, but with reservations, sharing some depth about the guy? That's hardly controversial nor a distraction from the topic here at hand. Do you now expect a Zamboni load of Canucks to start bickering here about Canadian domestic politics? Has that ever happened? Here's more Carney controversy...

Dream job? NHL goalie
Prefers Dogs over Cats
Favourite food? Pizza


Will you sanction me now because I disagree with his choice of pets? Can we be serious now? Here is a summary of Canada's commitment to Ukraine to date:

Why do you need to be confrontational when all I asked was for you to comply with the rules you have agreed to comply with?

If we tell others to keep politics out, what makes you any different? Are you above them?

I don't think what I asked was that bad, out of the norm, and it certainly does not go against the forum rules. Nor did I ask you to comply in a rude or confrontational manner. How about giving the same courtesy? Or is that too much to ask?

As a Canadian tax-payer, I am 100% comfortable that the AFU will use this equipment to its full capabilities and only wish we would do more to help Ukraine resist the Russian aggression. Slava Ukraini!!
