snuggling up to dictatorship

instead of judging countries by how much the US praises their democracy, judge them by the control of oligarchy and colonial masters. US and we are far more corrupt, because democracy makes corruption easy.

Instead of "hating less liberal democracies to the point of suicide", realize that "that bastion of freedom and democracy south of us" wants to destroy us. We need to make friends quick, and collectively destroy US manufacturing. An embarassing G7 joint communique of "we hate Russia even more now"divides Canada/west even further from Russia, which is exactly what US empire wants. Losers that desperately keep subservience to US military cooperation, and distances itself further from the enemies US tells us to make our enemies, is a loser move towards failure. Defense cooperation with Philippines categorically pathethic. Authorisizing US war on Mexico by agreeing to drug cartel designation as state sponsored terrorist, pathetic.

the first major European war of aggression since WWII

By far the greatest evil Canada has ever committed is pretending that US/Ukraine isn't fully responsible for provoking/forcing this war. Just as Russia understood its survival was at stake and acted accordingly, you need to understand the same for Canada. When you lick US empire diaper with even greater enthusiasm, instead of breaking off US military cooperation, and taking a clear minded view of who could be helpful as friends, instead of desperation that existing friends will be willing to choose Canada over US.

If our leaders don't make all possible new friends and detente with US enemies, then they will pull a "Chuck Schumer" after raising a tiny fuss. "No better option than full surrender", because no other options were ever prepared.

Not just a great demonic evil by Canada to participate in your lie, it shouldn't be possible to be as naive as you are pretending to be. Record is very clear. categorical and absolute: NATO forced this war.

If you are naive, know that G7/EU leaders keeping up the lie is because simpletons get locked into lies and hate and support those who support the lie. The courage to break free from colonial rule in face of stronger demands for tributes, starts with the courage that everything your master stands for was always leading up to your proposed slavery. Somehow people around here understand that US has lied its way into every war, but a Ukrainian nazi puppet regime being innocent freedom fighters is a direct result of generations of hate programming where nazis are better than Russians. You just don't understand the lie and US empire evil.
