Moscow: According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, there have been numerous instances of physical violence and discrimination against Russians in Canada. As a result, Russia is advising its citizens to stay away from the country.
In the conflict with Moscow's forces, Canada is one of the most outspoken supporters of Ukraine and has imposed trade bans and sanctions on a vast number of Russian officials and businesses.
According to a warning from the Russian Foreign Ministry, "due to the numerous instances of discrimination against Russian citizens... in Canada, including physical violence, we recommend you refrain from travelling to this country for tourism, education, and in the context of business relations."
