It is obvious that she grew up hating Russians, influenced by her relative's past, and expressed by her unilateral positions on Ukraine. She seems to think that the majority Russian speakers of Crimea and Donbass are just going to accept being forced back under Kiev rule despite attempts to take away their language and cultural rights.

 Not the person we should have as Foreign Minister, as important negociations are pending with Russia concerning jurisdiction over the Arctic Ocean and its resources. Canada is way too weak to confront Russia militarily, and we are rapidly fritting away their patience through undiplomatic and confrontational language. Canada is going to look pretty silly if Trump manages detente with Russia, because we will be largely isolated wrt Russia.

A clear self-inflicted diplomatic disaster for Canada, thanks to Trudeau's impulsive appointment of this Foreign Minister.
