OTTAWA — Canada has announced sanctions on more foreign nationals than ever as part of its foreign policy, but the government is leaving unanswered basic questions about how those sanctions are actually working.
The Liberal government has issued list after list of new financial sanctions in response to Russia’s February invasion of Ukraine, totalling nearly 1,500 Russians, Ukrainians and Belarussians. What’s not known is how many of those individuals have actually had their money frozen, had money in Canada in the first place, or even why those specific individuals were chosen to be on the sanctions list, say critics.
The Trudeau government is performative bullshit.
