Part of me thinks the u.s. Russia deal was to move oil out before Ukraine has a chance to blow it up and to swap money back and forth to float two leaders with dwindling power and support. I'm liking how fast the world responds.

If the United States is going to fund Russia's war machine, the Ukraine has no choice accept to close every Russian Refinary and pipeline and bomb ships carrying oil. US Military if your listening......your President is funding your enemies.

Canada has imposed over 3,500 sanctions in response to Russia’s violations of Ukraine’s sovereignty. During their conversation, PM Carney assured that Canada will maintain and, where effective, tighten sanctions to support efforts to secure a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.

PM underscored Canada’s unwavering support for Ukraine – for its sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity. Since Russia’s unprovoked and unjustifiable full-scale invasion began, Canada has committed over $8.5B in military support and over $750M for Ukraine’s recovery and reconstruction.

I can imagine Carney's security is really beefed up in light of the threat of assassination against the Polish PM. #CISI #Cdnpoli #EU

3,500 is real weight. The gap is enforcement. Announced sanctions and actually closed loopholes are different animals, and Moscow prices in the gap. Carney naming the diesel deal as opposition is what matters.

That's true, although you have to wonder how much they're really willing to sacrifice for Ukraine. Plus, they're already pulling fuel out of emergency reserves. That may not be safe to continue for a long time.

Even the republicans agree with carney this time. Increasingly they are doing that, even on the trade war. Trump has finally worn out his welcome even in the GOP.
