It is nice that you support Russia's invasion and seizure of Crimea, as well as their ongoing deadly efforts to take control of eastern Ukraine, but please don't label my support of the sanctions as subservient.  Go and ask any native Ukraine or anyone from former Soviet satellite states if they would like to return to a life under the control of Russian.  They support the sanctions.   Listen to the interview of the Lithuanian president two weeks ago if you need a refreshing reminder of why the Baltic states look to us for leadership and support on this matter. 

I am not a fan of Trudeau, but I am a fan of standing up for what is right.  The effect of the sanctions can be right if executed correctly.  Unfortunately, with the arrival of Trump in January, it is not clear he remotely cares about what is right or being a leader.   He cares about himself, himself and himself.
