You make the claims, you provide the research.

The burden of proof is on you.

No, it’s not. Before critiquing anything, it’s incumbent on YOU to have a knowledge of the subject. Not what you think, but what is factual. Do you actually know what’s been happening in Ukraine before Russia’s invasion? Do you know that we’re supporting an undemocratic fascist regime in Ukraine (Zelensky cancelled elections which are due May 21 of this year, and made opposition parties illegal)? Even the MSM before the invasion had articles concerning the Nazi fascist rise in Ukraine. Do some research! The first casualty in war is the truth. Canada has been sending mercs to fight in that war. It wasn’t an accident that a Nazi was honoured in our Parliament FFS! Read some history of the 2nd world war! Even our deputy PM Chrystia Freeland’s grandfather, from the Galician region, was a Nazi officer! Many inconvenient truths that folks like you either don’t know about or are ideologically invested, in this fallacy. Most Canadians are wilfully ignorant of foreign policy. Unfortunately.

An example of the reportage BEFORE Russia invaded Ukraine: https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbesleadershipforum/2014/05/19/why-everything-youve-read-about-ukraine-is-wrong/?sh=48e8486c510e I have pages of more, but I’ll leave it serious readers to research. I just wish our election cycles in Canada involved more foreign affairs content. It doesn’t so Canadians are mostly ignorant of the world poltically.

There’s no way it could be because of that tiny pandemic that slowed down the economy, created shortages of all kind of products for more than a year causing a lasting effect that we still feel today, and changed the work environment paradigm where a massive amount of people can work from home.
