i don’t get it. These people always have an office full of interns working for them. Nobody bothered to research the guy beforehand? The internet sure seemed aware of him.
Eh, they knew that this guy "fought against the Russians" during World War II. They just didn't care.
And not just Trudeau et al., even the Conservatives who participated in the two standing ovations he got. I like PP, but he seriously went off the rails here.
I don't think a global clampdown would even be physically possible at this point. The armed forces are tapped, there's been rumblings among the military media that they may have to bring back the draft in the US because a major war will sap manpower to a degree they just don't have. Recruiting is fucked and the reserve forces are dwindling to point it'd be infeasible to use them. Armaments are in the same boat, for example a recent report revealed that Germany only had about ~20k artillery shells in the whole country while Russia will use that amount in like 2-3 days. Extrapolate all the other weapons that disappear in the Ukie blackhole and I don't see how there's a force there that'd help them.
The west is looking down the barrel of some deep shit and I feel like this stuff is more chickens running around with their heads cut off than than any master psychological plan.
The Deputy Prime Minister of Canada, Chrystia Freeland, is the proud granddaughter of another Ukrainian Nazi collaborator and associates with Ukrainian ultranationalists, up to & including personally holding the black-and-red flag of the UPA (the only WW2-era Ukrainian faction even worse than the literal SS volunteers). There's a very good chance that the Liberals up to the Prime Minister's Office knew full well what Yaroslav Hunka was and approved this whole shebang under the belief that people would be too stupid to notice and/or it'd all blow over in a weekend without any real consequences. Since things didn't pan out that way, they're now throwing Rota under the bus as their scapegoat.
People are dumb. Corrupt people get complacent. Those who've 'made it' into whatever station become stagnant. Habituation towards taking it easy meant nobody cared enough to be diligent.

They're using him as a scapegoat. He of course should resign, but his resignation should be the 1st of many.

That's how things like this happen.
