Canadians are too smart to fall for Russian propaganda about the war in Ukraine, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Friday.
Trudeau made the remark after he was asked about Russian President Vladimir Putin91裸聊视频檚 recent interview with Tucker Carlson.
In it, Putin mocked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for taking part in a tribute on Parliament Hill that included a veteran with Nazi ties.
Canada made international headlines last fall for accidentally inviting Yaroslav Hunka, a Ukrainian-born Canadian who fought with an SS unit during the Second World War, to Parliament and then giving him a standing ovation.
91裸聊视频淭he president of Ukraine stood up with the entire Parliament of Canada and applauded this man. How can this be imagined?91裸聊视频 Putin said through a translator in an interview shared Thursday evening.
Putin has claimed that he invaded Ukraine to defeat neo-Nazis 91裸聊视频 something Western counties have dismissed as propaganda.
Trudeau told reporters on Friday Putin will use 91裸聊视频渨hatever propaganda he can91裸聊视频 to try and justify the ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
91裸聊视频淏ut I can tell you, Canadians will not be fooled,91裸聊视频 he said at a news conference in King City, Ont.
91裸聊视频淐anada stands with Ukraine, not just because we are friends to Ukraine, but because the rules-based order and the system of laws and the UN Charter protect all of us, not just Ukrainians.91裸聊视频
He added his government will continue to support Ukraine.
91裸聊视频淯nfortunately, we see the lengths to which Russian propaganda will go to try and impact public opinion, to try and twist things.91裸聊视频
For weeks, Trudeau has slammed Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre and singled out many of his members of Parliament for voting against an updated free trade agreement with Ukraine.
Poilievre says while his party supports Ukraine91裸聊视频檚 in the war against Russia, it opposes consumer carbon prices and stands against the revised agreement because the text mentions that both Ukraine and Canada agree to 91裸聊视频減romote carbon pricing.91裸聊视频 Ukraine has had a price on carbon for years.
The Ukrainian Canadian Congress was among the groups to voice their disappointment over the Tories91裸聊视频 position.
Trudeau accused Poilievre of mimicking the position of some U.S Republicans, who are signalling less support for assisting the Ukrainian war effort.
Poilievre has pushed back against that accusation. Some of his MPs have begun calling on the Liberals to send more weapons to Ukraine after they began voting against the free-trade bill.
