I guess it was just too tempting not to do it. Well deserved though.

Website created by two Harvard students matching Ukrainian refugees with hosts around the world offering shelter: https://www.ukrainetakeshelter.com/

Article about the site: https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/20/us/ha...ter/index.html

(Note: The site is different from a similar site being set up by the Canadian government for those refugees coming to Canada.)

Out of curiosity, I did a search of the site using the keyword Winnipeg. Several listings popped up.

“As Trade With Russia Halts, Countries Turn to Canada

Canada produces many of the same commodities as Russia, such as oil, nickel, wheat and potash, and countries are lining up to broker deals”

Yeah it is as long as the usual objectors allow it's transport to shipping locations. However; we all know how that will probably work out.

This is an interesting bar chart: https://www.ifw-kiel.de/fileadmin/Da..._v2_052022.pdf (see Figure 4 on page 19)

It compares foreign aid for Ukraine (excluding refugee support outside of Ukraine) by Western country as a percentage of donor country GDP. I am a bit surprised Canada ranks so highly compared to other countries. The data covers the period Jan 24 to Apr 23 so the comparison may be different now

Figure 5 is interesting too. It compares total dollar amount of military aid by Western country. Canada ranks 5th.

Look at Canada and US. We are living in a imaginary world where people identify as a unicorn and we must pretend this is real life. We are inviting sexual perverts into schools and introducing their lifestyles as "normal" and "natural".

- Usury leads to inequality and debt slavery.

- Promoting sexual perversions, leads to the destruction of family unit, the foundations of a nation. Abortions make it easy to pretend to avoid the consequences and live selfishly.

- Promoting drug legalizing "progress" when one is simply constructing one more imaginary world for oneself.

- Selling the country to foreign powers, through mass immigration, destroying the ability for a family wage and chance to live in a actual home.

All of these problems are promoted and encouraged, these rely on each other and display the image of a country who is a complete joke to someone like Putin. While we are worried if a man who identified as a woman feels "accepted" in a military unit. What a joke. This is all to be championed in the name of "equality" which really means making so many rules who screw over the normal serious men and women who are the back-bone of any nation.

The Trucker Convoy solidifies that the government is actively eliminating real men and losing sight of reality. Putin saw what he needed to see. All he had to do was wait. Putin knows that Canada is no threat whatsoever. Same with the US under the woke progressives. He knew that we will of course abandon Ukraine.
Like most rapturous Putin-fanboy posts, this one hasn't aged well... to put it mildly.
