    Their whole foreign policy is focused on destabilizing foreign countries and governments. They are absolutely involved.

      Not really. They’re interested in destabilizing America to further expand it’s interests.

      Canada is more likely getting fucked by American and Chinese interests

        They are our neighbour in a contested and highly strategic space: the Arctic. We are a middle power with an economy as big as theirs and as much land. We are allied with their (previous and current) adversaries, part of 5eyes, and freeze oligarch assets.

        We are growing, they are shrinking.

        They are more interested in us than most other targets.

          I don’t see that. Canada claim to the arctic rests on claiming our land physically extends out. America is up there claiming it with their navy and so is Russia. Anyways meme’n online isn’t contributing to their arctic claim. It doesn’t make sense. Politically Russia does not care about Canada right now. Aside from the odd afro turf about Ukraine, there isn’t much. China is targeting Canada. Big time. That’s where our bots are coming from. China and America

            You are making assertions based on your expectations about geopolitics? But your reasoning ignores history and Russian known tactics. Not convinced.

            Yes, so is India and other economic and political adversaries, especially authoritarian countries. China is a risky partner for us in many ways, and for a long time.

            It kind of goes without saying unless you need to be pedantic and completionist.

            The major subversive pressure currently is coming from those two militaristic imperialists however.
