Remember when the G7 tried to hurt Russia but instead they destroyed themselves?

I love how Trudeau proves over and over he can't do his job.

[johnclarke]

Seems like their more worried about everyone else but Canadians who got Canadians backs it makes me sick to my guts

[georgesmiley]

Hypocrisy? The NDP supports banning Canadian pipelines and using Russian, Iranian, and Venezuela oil by tanker.

[Bloodywasher]

Wtf are you talking about you're ruining our economy for Zelensky...

[bludaizee]

Does anyone think Putin is the least bit concerned about what Trudeau says? Lol

[jasonlauritsen]

Until we have a proper military, complete with aircraft and arctic worthy ships, we should just stay out of pissing on Russia.

Holding the turbines was a stupid move in the 1st place. We are playing checkers while Russia is playing chess.

[bmacmillan]

Crazy idea, let's get the oil in the tar sands to market.

[karendarel]

Why do you give this hasbeen a platform to spew his crap? Seriously.

Actually, Mulcair is the hypocrite on this. On Newstalk 1010AM last week he crowed about how unfair it was for the Canadian government to withhold this essential equipment from Germany. Which is it Thomas?

[davidcunningham]

“We” aren’t doing this. Trudeau is doing it. And yes, our resources are ethical and critical to help solve this problem. But Trudeau is crushing our oil and gas industries.

[jaredwall]

Who was it that warned Germany of getting comfortable with being dependant on Russia again?

[caldepen]

A lot more complicated than this article and Mulcair is over simplifying things. If we didn't do this, we'd be helping Russia more by causing the crash of Germany. Damned if we do, damned if we don't.

Interesting timing... Turbines might be going back.... Rogers gets knocked offline due to "maintenance", then next day all turbines being sent back.

Hmmm... If Canadians knew that someone attacked their telecommunication system, the population might see it as an act of war. Best to keep everyone in the dark.

[kellyknudsen]

I guess Mulcair thinks letting Europe freeze this winter will increase support for Ukraine. This was the right thing to do for the short term until Europe is able to access other sources of energy.

[davidrockefeller]

Rogers gets hacked and then this happens.

[realscience]

So sad! …Canada is in a great position to help ease the oil/gas situation!
The taps should be opened in AB, NFLD, SAS, & shipped to Europe!

[cleigh]

Why are they asking Mulcair about anything? Be better off asking Harper who is a proper economist and businessman.

[claudiocorleone]

This is a great country with enormous potential. It’s being run by incompetent governments almost at every level. Folks please vote every single government on the city, provincial and federal level .
