When and how will it end

 Only the people of Russia can save the Ukrainian state. The destruction of the port shows that; it was merciless. I do pray that the news that the Russian military does not like what it is doing are true. They can turn the tide and stop this dreadful butchery in Ukraine. It is like watching the famine all over again. Such hatred we have only seen a few times in recent human history. 

What really is the intent? Is it to chase all of these people out of this region and repopulate it with Russians? We are willing to welcome millions which would rather create a very large group of Ukrainians in Canada. There are about 1.5 million people of Ukrainian descent living in Canada apparently. That is actually a small portion of our population perhaps 4% only but a sudden influx of 2 million people would have a huge impact in just one generation. We said as many as wanted to come could come for three years. Speeded up residency for anyone with family in Canada already. 

I do understand how they feel about their homeland. My grandparents loved their homeland (England) and my grandfather always planned to go back when he retired but his wife died and there were so many grandchildren here and so he stayed.
