Canadian State Media CBC: Russia is behind the Trucker convoys in Canada

CBC anchor Nil Köksal on Power & Politics suggested on Friday that Russia had played a role in planning and orchestrating the Truckers for Freedom Convoy.

Köksal made the outlandish claim while interviewing Liberal public safety minister Marco Mendicino as protesters began to arrive in Ottawa to protest COVID-19 mandates and erosion of freedoms.

“Given Canada’s support of Ukraine in this current crisis with Russia, I don’t know if it is far-fetched to ask, but there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this protest grows, perhaps even instigating it from the outside?” asked Köksal.(True North,tnc.news)
