    1. @dk RaWk what does Russia export to Canada? Actually, nothing. Russia doesn’t produce anything except oil and natural gas. With this respect, oil embargo is of great benefits to Canada.

    2. @Angela Smirnova wow, You must be joking….Wood and articles of wood, wood charcoal,Aluminum, Machinery, nuclear reactors, boilers,Electrical, electronic equipment.
      Would You happen to be one of those canadians protesting for nothing and screaming and yelling that You want your human rights and freedoms?
      Go learn about you own country before running your mouth about others when You have zero clue wtf You is talking about.
      Russia has nothing oil and gas, well they do have many other things, but YOU are burning Russian oil and gas.

  1. Russian Ambassador says that they are not afraid of sanctions. However, Russia doesn’t produce anything except oil and natural gas. With this respect, oil embargo is of great benefits to Canada. Tougher sanctions on the Russian energy sector and corrupt Russian oligarchs who use money to corrupt western governments. This will reduce corruption here and help our oil industry.
