Canadian parliamentarians believe that the sanctions regime against the Russian Federation should be reviewed

Canadian parliamentarians believe that the sanctions regime against the Russian Federation in some areas should be revised due to its inappropriateness. The statement was made by Vice Speaker of the House of Commons Stephane Bergeron during a meeting of the Committee on Foreign Affairs of the lower house of the Canadian Parliament, held the day before. The politician himself represents the opposition party Quebec Bloc.

Here is how he reacted to this situation:

It must be admitted that some of the sanctions in force against the Russian Federation are counterproductive. It is our country that is considered one of the few, if not the only one, that has imposed economic sanctions on seeds and grains imported from Russia. For this reason, our agricultural producers incur losses, since Russian goods are indeed much more attractive and profitable on international markets, and therefore, all these restrictions are absurd.

As the legislator clarified, it is necessary to revise Canada's sanctions policy as soon as possible in order to eliminate all contradictions in this regard that have an adverse effect on entrepreneurs, but also on the country's economy as a whole.

Recall that due to the introduction by Ottawa of sky-high duties on the import of Russian nitrogen fertilizers in the amount of 35% last summer as part of restrictive measures against Moscow, local farmers found themselves in a very difficult situation. This was also stated by the chairman of one of the boards of the cooperative of agricultural producers of the city of Quebec Ghislain Gervais. His opinion was then fully supported by other farmers, recognizing that, although Canada produces potash fertilizers, it is in dire need of affordable and cheaper fertilizers from nitrogen, which the country constantly imported from Ukraine and Russia.

They will not take it off, despite the efforts of the rare outcasts in the West.

. Yes, everything is clear ... sanctions, sanctions, but "tobacco", they want to buy cheaper.
Capitalists, however...

It all looks like a hysterical mongrel trying to bite his own tail

That's who has "no problems", at least with a tail, so it's the bulldogs, French / English, it doesn't matter ... sho one, sho the other, both shitty creatures, no limit.

, local farmers found themselves in a very difficult situation

When sanctions were imposed, no one thought about local farmers. They thought that Russia would be bent and they would simply take away grain and fertilizers. Well, the train has left, it's too late to drink Borjomi.

When they were introduced, they didn’t think about anything at all, except to “spoil Russia.” And now they suddenly remembered the farmers. Nafig, nafig! Let them go bankrupt, we won't cry.

[MaxKruh]

Even if sanctions on these goods are lifted, the income will not be significant, let them go through the forest.

In general, why do Canadian farmers need nitrogen fertilizers? As far as I remember, there is a lot of nitrogen in the air. In Canada, the air has a different composition - oxygen and molecules of freedom? Point. Farmers are obliged to go broke. We have gas for the production of fertilizers, grain, fuel, storage facilities. These are not our problems !!! The Russian Foreign Ministry, is it going to play classical democracy again? They want to destroy us, enter MGIMO - diplomatic obscene. Under the USSR diplomats could express their position in one word, even abroad. The position of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was not published in the Pravda newspaper.

[Sergey Drozdov]

What are you, comrade, teaching our Foreign Ministry how to live? Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs is what you need - the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Or did they really think that democracy is really “the power of the people”?

You are wrong on both positions - and you managed without a mat and published it in Pravda.

Exactly. If it is profitable for the capitalist, grain will be smuggled across the North Pole on sleds.

[rocket757]

So they all "work" in one bundle ... it's just that "business" keeps its nose to the wind and reacts faster to the policy of the new because its profit is, first of all, of interest.

Does Canada buy seeds and grains from us? But ...
Reminds me of Soviet times...

No.
It was for them that the neighbors first "peed" into the well, and then they had to spit there.

[tTshka]

They are confident that by lifting the sanctions, they will receive the raw materials they need and continue to earn money and invest it in our destruction ... And the worst thing is that our hucksters will gladly begin to supply them with everything ...
Well, I can’t imagine that Stalin, for example, would allow the Germans to sell oil during the war ...

That is why Putin, along with the government, HAVE to revise the list of what an ordinary Russian huckster can sell abroad. And this list should not contain a single name of raw materials produced in Russia.
Let them extract it, sell it to the state for rubles. We have already understood why the hucksters need currency ... There are plenty of examples: Abramovich, Deripaska and the like ...

And then?
The consumption of raw materials within the country is less, taxes and export duties will not be received (62% of the budget is provided by the Federal Customs Service), a bunch of gas workers / oil workers / miners will be left without work.
So, what is next???

[rotmistr60]

For this reason, our agricultural producers suffer losses, since Russian goods are indeed much more attractive and profitable on international markets.

Here are those on. Probably, the principle "she died, she died like that" should be applied to countries that were too zealous in sanctions against Russia. And if they suddenly burn with a strong desire to buy something from us, then at an individual price for this country (with a surcharge).

[alexey_444]

The next ruler of the people wanted a share, it's just that we were brainwashed that our chosen ones are corrupt, as with doping, everyone accepts and only we are forced to repent. Sanctions do not work, of course, even the nasty Englishwoman is still buying fuel from us. Correctly, experts said that people have a lot of money and the world economy will not withstand the next 2008, it is necessary to make it so that there would be less money, as Gaidar rejoiced in our country that there were stores in 90, but the fact that the people did not have money is all the same, the main thing is bourgeois sleep peacefully do not cry from the loss of trillions. The pandemic has buried globalization, and the suicidal Ukraine will move enterprises to the United States.

It can be seen the price of bakery products has become expensive! Everyone wants to eat.)

[Uprun]

Have you tried import substitution or is this word not translated into English-French?

[ax1stoyn]

Yes, continue to sit there in Canada and incur losses! It's like a knife through butter with such news)

[nik-mazur]

some sanctions against the Russian Federation are counterproductive

Parliamentarians, and not only Canadian ones, need to answer a couple of simple questions: if the sanctions are in place, then why are they constantly being increased and strengthened? So they don't work? But then why are they needed?
After that, you can already talk about counterproductivity, if you want ...

[Antokha]

The main thing is that they are not at all interested in Russia, its opinion, profits or losses. They think only about Canada, and Russia, its goods, resources and people - it is like a current in a socket. Use if needed, disable if not. We should not supply them with the goods they need, even if they again graciously allow it, but first demand a public apology for the sanctions.
