There is very disturbing impression emanating from our government that  loyalty to her ancestral homeland, Ukraine, is and has been having an undue influence on Foreign Affairs Minister Freeland's decisions and her advice to the Cabinet.

This would be completely inappropriate for a Minister, and the impression has become strong enough that the PM needs to make it crystal clear that indeed her loyalties are entirely focused on Canada and its interests, in all aspects of her governmental activities--not just regarding Ukraine, but also Russia, with which Canada should be pursuing relations independent of the confused, aggressive mess roiling the U.S.A.
