I don’t get pizzed at Canadians, I laugh at them :)
And they’ll need EVERY cent of it. Cuz Russia has no economy otherwise.
Comrade Jon, the fact that you’ve got no response to the damning statistic I cited just shows how deep a hit it was
yes, Russia’s economy is small and poor
LOL ... enjoy those sanctions, buddy!
Way to go, Brandon
The only Canadian statistics that has value is the current price of a bottle of Molson.
You're a foreign subversive. You don't even possess the good sense to tread lightly.
I’m an Amerophile in Alberta
so this “foreigner” is a lot closer to the US than Comrade Jon in Ireland or the many Russian trolls in Europe - both physically, and in terms of political sympathies
Hush, Neocon.
It’s sickening to see the neocons defend the disastrous Biden regime decisions...

No one seems to have figured out that we can get our own information. Just like they seem to think that demonization & name calling works in a debate. I mean, look what that did for Trump’s popularity.
You are the very definition of a foreign subversive. You can use whatever colorful language you like but it doesn't change your position in this life. You and others like you are on this American website on a daily basis goading my country to fight and or fund your wars. You constantly degrade anyone (Americans for real, not by proxy) that offer any resistance to your goading. You and others constantly post and spread known foreign propaganda on this American website and you damn well know why you do it. Why you people are still getting away with it concerns me greatly. What are your country's laws regarding subversive behavior? How is it defined?
Russia GDP is just slightly higher than Mexico’s. Were it not for their Nukes, they would be a 3rd world power.
As it is, they are punching way over their weight class.
Prices are down 25% since then.

Volume is up. Besides the India sleight-of-hand, EU countries are buying from Russia. So is the US.
Sanctions are a mirage.
I don’t know about the IT sector, but there are plenty of Chinese and Indian developers, judging by the number in the US. Where are the chips & hardware produced? Not here.
Financials? With the BRICS adding countries weekly, the East Eurasia alliance, along with the Global South (can’t recall the title) is doing well setting up international trade, a parallel clearance system and the beginnings of a currency based on a basket of commodities. Those commodities are increasingly valuable. Nature abhors a vacuum and the degradation of the USA created one. Add to that the potato is granting other nations (China) lithium mining rights in the USA and then they can also export the product, refine and sell it abroad.
Joe’s handlers! Is there anything they can’t do?
“You hate Russia so much”
I actually like Russia and Russians (especially Russian women), but the Government is monstrous, and this war is monstrous.
Putin is a sociopathic mass murderer who must be stopped. His regime is mafia/siloviki dictatorship that is oppressing and abusing not only Ukrainians, but Russians as well.
“Wow, Russia really is small and poor”
If you think it is poor now, you ain’t seen nothing yet.
Russia Russia Russia
“Russia sees 38% rise in energy export earnings this year: Report”
Obviously our sanctions TEACHING PUTIN A LESSON. Any minute now he will buckle and apologize.
What you're saying is actually TRUE OF ZELENSKY.
Zelensky has shutdown opposing parties and media outlets. He's imprisoned opposition leaders. He has allowed neo-Nazis and Ukrainian nationalists to terrorize the ethnic Russian population for eight years.
During this war -- I've seen proof on video -- the Ukrainian army has used civilians as human shields, targeted civilians in Donetsk with missiles and butterfly mines and, now, is attacking a nuclear power plant.
If you're this badly deceived at what you're supporting, I feel sorry for you.
I've watched Russian YouTube for more than two years. Russia has less political prisoners than we do as Col. Douglas Macgregor has pointed out. Russia, at worst, is a more conservative version of Canada. But, it's those that promoting the LGBT agendas that are silenced rather than Christians and conservatives.
