ON TARGET: Unsavoury elements taint Ukrainian regime
http://thechronicleherald.ca/opinion/1294541-on-target-unsavoury-elements-taint-ukrainian-regime

"When asked for a clarification vis-�-vis the possibility of our troops assisting right-wing extremists, the defence minister�s office stated that the Canadians would only be training the Ukrainian National Guard. Unfortunately for all involved, as of September 2014, the Azov Battalion officially became a member of that National Guard.

As loathe as the Canadian government is to admit that Ukraine�s security forces contain such unsavoury elements, it is imperative that we follow the U.S. lead on this and ban any and all support to neo-Nazi fascists, even if they are anti-Russian."


Canada has given almost half a billion dollars
supporting this government with no accounting
of how monies are spent - what programmes
were cut in order to do this. Any thoughts???
