Is he going to freeze Russian banks as well 🤔 😳 🤣 😏 😅 😂

[brucegraham]

Don't you mean sanctions on his own people? Oh wait, he's already done that.

[thomasprince]

he is good at sanctions, look at the sanctions he is imposing on Canadians

[ekuqose]

My god! Instead of sanctioning Russia you better take care of your own country.

[natanmysli]

Such a hypocrisy. Dictator calls himself a democracy defender...

[karenhorton]

It’s terrible and extremely sad to see a country’s dictator starts a war in another country. Canada has a dictator starting a war in his own country! How ironic that he’s showing more concern for people in Ukraine then he does for Canadians.

This guy really needs to get out of office. Clearly he's not fit for the job.
