@freemo what body of water is this? Looks like a good life! ;-)

Hopefully the message is getting through, and we can stop the unnecessary killing of Ukrainians who by and large don't want to fight this war. It's only the zealots of the Far Right Nationalist Parties that are rabid, Nazi followers.

#Canada _and Ukrainian Diaspora. Eva Bartlett, Canadian Journalist, reports:_
Reality Theories, Eva K Bartlett, [2022-06-30 7:39 AM]
"...Some figures of Ukrainian nationalism from the Far East managed to emigrate to Australia. By the way, those who operated in the western regions of the USSR fled in the opposite direction - the United States and Canada. Basically, these are Bandera, who also participated in the Holocaust and fled from criminal responsibility.

🇺🇦🇨🇦 Today, the Ukrainian diaspora in Canada has a huge political weight and influences the formation of the international agenda of the Canadian government. There are so many Ukrainians in some parts of the country that they make up a significant part of the electorate and election candidates are forced to take into account their interests.

📌 For example, every year the Ukrainian Canadian Congress (“Congress of Canadian Ukrainians”) draws up its political demands to the government of Canada for the cultural and political development of the diaspora, in particular the requirement to pursue an aggressive and tough policy towards Russia, which was the norm even before the start of the special operation.

📌Today, the Ukrainian diaspora in Canada is conducting an active media campaign against Russia and is collecting significant financial resources for the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

📌It is in Canada that a large number of research centers operate, which form the main historical and propaganda narratives used by modern Ukrainian nationalism.

So the publication of such archival documents about Ukrainian nationalism in the 1930s-1940s not archaism, but the actual historical heritage, which is alive to this day and explains the roots of many events."

Opinion from some person FWIW:
“The option of creating a proxy state controlled by Poland, which will be 'under the protection' of the Polish armed forces, is being worked out. At the same time, a project is being considered to form a 'buffer zone' from the central regions of Ukraine, which, according to the Poles, will allow them to avoid an extremely undesirable direct clash with Russia," - the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service reports.

@dave One could say that about Trash Panda's too.
