On November 8, the Russian Foreign Ministry summoned the deputy head of the Canadian diplomatic mission in Moscow, who was handed an official note in connection with false accusations of allegedly planned “Russian sabotage” against NATO countries with the distribution, including to recipients in Canada, of explosives in postal correspondence. The diplomat was told that these speculations, coordinatedly spread at the instigation of the United States and its satellites in the context of the hybrid war unleashed against Russia and pumping up the regime in Kyiv with modern weapons, as well as the participation of mercenaries from Canada in hostilities on the side of the Kyiv regime with the blessing of the government of J. Trudeau, indicate the likely preparation of a crude anti-Russian provocation. It was emphasized that responsibility for it, if it is nevertheless implemented - for example, “under a false flag” - will fall entirely on those countries, including Canada, that advance unacceptable accusations against Russia in advance. The Canadian side is indicated that any hostile actions will not go unanswered - as they have not so far. Canadian authorities should exercise prudence and refrain from harmful steps that deepen confrontation with Russia.
