Time to ‘man up’?

Dear Editor:

An open letter to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.

Sir, in the not so distant past, we Canadians were admired around the world not only as peacekeepers, but keepers of the peace! It seems not so much lately, on your watch.

In regards to the conflict in Ukraine, you hold back on being part of a “no-fly zone” out of fear that this would lead to an escalation in the fighting. It’s obvious that Putin wants to wipe out the people of Ukraine when he shells nuclear power plants, schools, hospitals and bomb shelters. The territory of the country is secondary. 

Do you think that when those refugees flee to Poland, Germany and Belarus, that Vlad will stop going after them there? Neville Chamberlain is rolling in his grave. Man up, Justin!
