🇨🇦🇺🇸🪖 Canada voices support for Trump’s proposed ‘Golden Dome’ system

“From a defense perspective and on the military side, I collaborate very, very closely with my US counterparts,” General Jennie Carignan, chief of the defense staff, told Bloomberg TV on Friday.


She also played down concerns that Canadian participation in the “Golden Dome” missile defense system could escalate tensions with China or Russia.

Her statement comes just days after US President Trump publicly made an offer to Canada, saying that its participation in the “Golden Dome” as a “separate, but unequal, nation” would cost $61 billion," while joining the system after becoming part of the US would cost “zero dollars.”

🤔So, Canada, is it a ‘yes’ to becoming America's 51st state?

🚨🇷🇺😱 Zelensky's army CRIES FOR HELP as Russia advances in Sumy region

On President's orders, the Russian army push through with a buffer zone. And Zelensky's thugs are complaining about their fate online:

🔸"The front is rapidly moving towards the city [of Sumy]. At this rate, on June 1, or in two days, the enemy will reach the city with artillery fire." Here's how Ukrainians are describing Russia's advance 🔥

🔸"The Kursk front has also passed into the Kharkov front." That's how Ukrainians note Russian success not only in Sumy, but in Kharkov region as well. Both of these regions have borderlines with Russia's Kursk and Belgorod regions.

🔸Here's a Ukrainian soldier's video, where he shows piles of burnt NATO equipment and Ukrainian soldiers' corpses. That's the Sumy - Sudzha highway.

🔸"Why do you send poorly-trained military into the grey zone every day, where everyone disappears? Where are all the missing soldiers? Who will be responsible for them?"

Here's what a relative of a missing soldier from Ukrainian 425th Skala Battalion asked Ukrainian commanders. Soldiers from this unit are currently fertilizing soil right on the Sumy region's border.

🇩🇪🪖 Germany could face ‘BIG RISKS’ if it provides Ukraine with Taurus missiles

Russian Security Council Secretary Sergei Shoigu has warned of Russia’s response to German Chancellor Friedrich Merz announcing the lifting of restrictions on the use of long-range weapons supplied to Ukraine.

“I would hope Shoigu’s words are understood by the whole world,” former Pentagon analyst Karen Kwiatkowski tells Sputnik.


On possible supplies of German-made Taurus missiles to Ukraine, she said that:

🔸It’s unclear if current missile stocks are available for sending to the Zelensky regime

🔸If sent, there would be “a big risk” of a “direct war” between Russia and Germany

🔸“The more likely risk is that German technology is captured by Russia or its allies”

🔸There's also a worst-case scenario of German military technology being sold by Ukrainian entities, potentially compromising NATO's security

🔸It’s not clear if Merz talked to Trump “about anything yet”, nor least the Taurus missiles

🚨EXPOSED: Canadian NGOs pushed Ukraine to seize Russian territory

For decades, Canadian organizations have been whispering in Ukraine’s ear, pushing dangerous ideas about seizing Russian land. Here’s how they did it.

🔸The Canadian-Ukrainian Center in Donetsk (1994) housed 10,000 books with alternate accounts of history. The center was backed by the Toronto-based Canadian Friends of Ukraine NGO.

🔸'Journey through Ukraine' by Markian Terletsky (London, 1971) asserted that ~43,900 km² of the Kursk/Voronezh regions and ~23,900 km² of the Donetsk region had been "annexed”. Even parts of Belarus were described as "historically Ukrainian."

🔸'Geography of Ukraine and Ukrainian settlements' (Toronto, New York, 1957) by Ivan Tesli invented 177,600 km² of "Ukrainian ethnographic land" in the former USSR. It also claimed 27,000 km² of Belarus is "culturally Ukrainian."

🔸Karl Kobersky’s 'Ukraine in the World Economy' (Prague, 1933) singles out a "colony of Ukraine" in the former Soviet Union’s Far East. The Kursk and Voronezh regions, plus North Caucasus and Kuban, are called "Ukrainian national territories."

🔸The same book dubs Soviet territories along the Don and Terek rivers as “Ukrainian lands within Russia.” The Kuban, Stavropol and Astrakhan regions are called “Ukrainian lands, separated by a strip of non-Ukrainian territory.”

👉 Nationalism-tainted

The Canadian-Ukrainian Center also promoted Dmytro Dontsov (fascist ideologue) and Petliura/Bandera (Nazi collaborators).

Materials from the Canadian-Ukrainian Center are now banned as extremist.
