The CBC, just like Canadian politics, is a lot like professional wrestling. Some people find it mildly entertaining, but it's important not to take it too seriously.
+denny loverin Yous eriously think Putin does this for the people of Russia? lol He holds many of these long live tv events because the Russian government has the Russians by the balls, even if they publicly disagree with anything he says, they´d be jailed. I find it mindboggling how any westerner can be as naive as to believe Putin means well for his country. His ego is why he is on tv so much, his ego and nothing more. Ignorance is what a person has if he believes Russia is a democracy and people there are not taken advantage of by their government. It´s clear the people of Russia are very proud people (the same goes for the North Koreans and Chinese), and that pride makes them defend a government that keeps them down. I suppose you believe Putin is great because westerners have the freedom to express themselves without being jailed or beaten by government? Or maybe you believe Putin is good because westerners have many more opportunities to improve their lives and their families lives than the people of Russia and China do? There is no doubt that all governments are corrupt, but the western governments allow its people to progress, in technology, financially, etc. In Russia the government knows very well how dedicated and proud Russians are of their country, and they use that to their own advantage by making sure government officals and their families are taken care of while the Russian people are left for the table scraps. A Russian is happy even if they have very little as their parents had even less, so in their eyes the Russian government has made their lives better than their parents had it ie the past. Putin knows this and plays the Russian people very well. Western governments could do the same thing to its own people, but western governments do not. Westerners stand up and speak out about their government much more than the Russians do. When something bothers a westerner he will take action, he will stand up for what he belives in. Probably because a westerner does not need to fear being jailed or prosecuted for doing so by Putin. Russians would actually fit the defintion of being sheep more than westerners because they are less likely to speak out and more likely to just follow the government whether it is due to pride or due to fear. There is a reason Russians leave Russia in droves; and there is a reason they come to the west. Because they know they will have more rights and freedom and a better future by leaving their country and moving to the west. Westerners do not line up in droves to move to Russia or China, you realize? It´s the other way around. Most likely you´re just one of the westerners who are naive and think Putin ia ideal because his intelligence fools you. Russia needs an intelligent leader who knows how to play his cards right to keep their own people down because they have no plans to share the wealth with their nation; it is all corrupt and a nation run to keep the government officials and their families very well off and give the people one or two little things to keep them happy. if you are a Russian, It´s a shame for you though, that you are not one of the Russians who actually can experience what it is like to live in the west and everything we have, either out of stubborness or ignorance or pride. You would have a much better future for you, your family and your children. If you are a westerner, it´s a shame youi do not live in Russia so you can apparently be in a country where the best leader in the world, as yous eem to feel is the case. Hope you enjoy prison while you´re there, though, because 50% of the things you do in the west will land your ass in a Russian prison. You can throw away your opinion right now.
+denny loverin So far no Canadian leader plans to be in power for 48 years as Putin plans. Putin just does snowball questions to let everyone know Big Daddy is not yet ready to die in office like happened to Stalin, Brezhnev, Andropov and Chemenko.
"Mr. Putin, what are your thoughts on Canada?"-CBC reporter "My thoughts on Canada are exactly the same as everyone else's. Nobody gives a SHIT about Canada. Next question."- Vladimir Putin
This was very biased, when has any western political leader sat for three hours and answer political questions from citizens live? and Putin does this type of interview every year.
+funkyfiss Right! Putin understands that after being in power for 16 years he must look like Big Daddy in order to sail through until 2024, even 2048. Imagine, a generation of Russians have grown up knowing only Putin, much as happened with Stalin.
DataWaveTaGo Your wrong, look democracy isnt perfect. even in ancient Athens where democracy was started the people voted Pericles to rule them for 31 years until his death. his running mates would step down so he could win every time because they knew that he was the best that they had. Russia still holds democratic elections but because Putin has done so much for his country and is adored by the majority of his people he is consistently voted in time and time again. They remember the time when they had a puppet government of the west and how bad that was under Boris Yeltsin. It is very wrong for you to compare him to Stalin one of the worst mass murderers of all time.
Yes, this CBC video is arrogant propaganda, which misrepresents what Putin said, and also takes several swipes at Putin's annual call-in, for which he is largely, perhaps even entirely not pre-briefed. This CBC video did take things out of context, but it didn't really twist facts as much as it avoided all facts, entirely. I also don't think it is a good job, but that it is a wicked and rotten job, performed by people who are not ethical or truthful enough, or intelligent enough that they should be presenting themselves as reporters of news to people. They are disingenuous, and snakes.
CBC is great at twisting news. They have a news monopoly in Canada and are funded at $1 billion a year by our socialist government. As a Canadian, if you want news, ask a homeless guy and you'll get a more honest and straightforward reply on any topic.
Putin unlike north American politicians has learned his craft from the bottom up. A special services officer of the Russian military and an intelligence officer. He has served in many positions in the Russian political arena and so he is not only brilliant he understands how the various departments in foreign countries operate. His deep understanding allows him to intercept aggressive actions against Russia before they can be implemented. Case in point is his intervention of American operations in Syria.
if there's anything to be jealous of Russia for, (which there isn't a lot of things), its that they are a completely sovereign , independent country, free of influence or pressure from others... wish Canada was more like that
+Steve Polychronopolous We could have been, but we value material comforts more than complete sovereignty and independence. Hardly a unique national trait.
+Steve Polychronopolous Well I think that if the TPP is truly ratified then we can kiss any semblance of "sovereignty" goodbye since a foreign corporation can sue our country to change our laws over projected losses due to a law or bylaw that they feel impedes them.

Frankly, I want to live in a world where we use "diplomacy" to get along with the rest of the world rather then childish "good guy - bad guy" scenarios.

Apparently the Russian government was pissed off at Canada for legalizing weed. I guess they don't like that there. Go vodka or go home. I have no idea how it's any of their damn business, mind you.
KGB_Putin is a little rat running Stalinist tactics to keep all Russians afraid of anything that he does not approve of. That's why Russians call in to his KGB_ Putin_Nation Show to ask him what kind of dog to buy for a pet.
@G Holmes How wrong you are friend. USA is living on infinite debt. Russia has NONE. Putin is an amazing president despite what the west says. Trump was a clown. Is America great yet?
I just checked your source. Russian debt is 17 % gdp. USA debt is 130 percent. Yes I agree. You dont dont know what you are talking about. I never assumed you were american. Just uninformed.
Jo1974 And he doesn't have his political rivals murdered. Putin has a lot of blood on his hands. The murder of opposition politician Boris Nemtsov Anna Politkovskaya - 2006 The 48-year-old journalist, a prominent critic of Mr Vladimir Putin, was gunned down at her Moscow apartment block on 7 October 2006, the president's birthday. Sergei Magnitsky- 2009 Lawyer Sergei Magnitsky died in police custody in November 2009 after allegedly being denied medical treatment and brutally beaten. He was investigating a multi-million tax fraud against the Russian state Stanislav Markelov and Anastasia Baburova - 2009 Leading human rights lawyer Stanislav Markelov was gunned down in broad daylight on 19 January, 2009. I will stop for now, but there is many more.Chew on those for now. A new survey by the independent Levada Center pollster has found that their work might be of limited use - more than a quarter of the Russians questioned said they were reluctant to express their views in opinion polls. Twenty-six percent of those questioned in the poll said they were averse to expressing their view on current affairs when surveyed, a poll published Friday on the Levada Center's website showed. Slightly fewer people, 23 percent, said they also felt uncomfortable about discussing such matters with their colleagues and 17 percent felt apprehensive even in a family context. Almost half of those questioned, 49 percent, said they thought most Russians would be reticent to discuss current affairs when approached by pollsters. The most popular explanation given for the aversion of speaking openly was fear of possible backlash on people's own lives - 56 percent of respondents thought fear of retribution was the main reason. One fifth of those questioned, 20 percent, said they thought people did not want to face the truth themselves.
Jackson Ryding Holeeee Crapppp! You know nothing as to how the KGB trained bandits set up "unfortunate" murders. Now I had not even mentioned Nemtsov, so stop projecting your deep felt desire to protect poor-liddle KGB_Putin who only has all Kremlin controlled media and a budget of billions$ to defend him. Poor, poor liddle Pootsy. Awwwww .... sniff ...
No matter what they say, Mr. Putin is without question the most influential leader of our times. I envy Russian people for having such a powerful and intelligent leader. I wish we had a leader like him in my country.
I guess we Canadians can actually thank Donald Trump and his Trade War threats against us that made us actually stop being USA's lapdog. Putin wasn't wrong about that....
The Russians love him...He did a lot for the stability of his country...He has the ability to not only talk but help his people as well...The world should learn from him....Surprised that Canadians are trying to create a negative image of Putin,,,Work with him and the world will be better off
Did you know that South Korea just banned Russia from participating the Pyeongchang winter olympics over doping violations? Putin is also banned from watching the olympics in South Korea. I am so happy. Japan was not banned how lucky!
Mike F: Let's be honest- Putin would hold Trudeau down, stretch him from here to Finland and then shave Justin's hair that that all the tards fawn over.
Ethan Silver so putin trump and Trudeau have stealing from the people in common. Trump steals from you right now it's called tariffs or another tax. 700 billion on military are you starting another war you can't win.
Russia is under sanctions from major countries - which is one reason its economy is struggling. But if they can stick to their principles and build up their independence, they (unlike the US or to a lesser degree China) will not have to cow tow to the American empire's rules and interests.
Putin is like a chuck norris meme you dont mess with him and he can do pretty much anything even verbally attack and you will feel it physically lol XD
I LIKE WHERE PUTIN TALKS POSITIVE OF CANADA . PUTIN PATIENTLY WAITED TILL TRUDEAU GOT A LITTLE OLDER & TRIED TO GET ALONG . TRUDEAU DOES NOT SPOUT OFF CALLING PEOPLE MURDERERS . HOWEVER I AM WITH TRUDEAU WHERE HE DOES NOT LIKE TRUMP WITH PUTIN-VERYMUCH . PWW
Genetically speaking, that is the most false thing you could have possibly said. Economically speaking, that still shows that you don't remember your History lessons. Canada is built almost entirely of immigrants who came here in the late 20th century, and made us into the G7 nation we are today.
O you mean unlike the grip that our own government has on all the main news outlet here. Interesting, unsound, but interesting none the least even though the last comment the reporter made was just to make me laugh.
Maybe he is just well informed and knows what best for his country,this bias is practically dripping from the screen.Canada and Russia respecting each other is how it should and can be,but not with the tone being set by cbc here.To be clear Canada is no ones lap dog.
I hope I don't see people writing about how Canada and Russia should form an alliance. Russia does bad stuff just like the US and it's worse off in a lot of areas. I know the US also does bad things but I would rather see Canada closer to the US and UK than Russia.
***** Do you want me to count the wars and military actions that the USSR/Russia was involved in, because believe me I can. If the Soviet Union was so good, how come nobody liked it? Russia is not the economic future. Their economy is going down the drain. Their economy solely depends on oil and their prices are going down. Putin isn't doing anything about it, he only wants to promote nationalism. He's been in power for 17 years, time to go into retirement.
That's a great plan, we could form a military alliance and annex the United States! One further step in the master plan for Canadian World Dominance :)
Putin: I can see Canada and Russia getting along well😀 2018: (Cyber attack on Canada by Russia and N. Korea.) Me: (screams as if I were going super sain)
Canada needs to break our leash to the usa below us and build stronger ties with natural friends to our West, Russia and China. We have much in common as countries and as people
Polished and scripted, an obvious PR exercise, but the fact that over 2 million questions were submitted is what's really interesting. Seems Russians do have a lot of questions they want answered.
How is it a PR exercise if well reasearched and asserted answers have been given? Or giving half-assed unsure answers without thought on the spot would have better? Use your brain a little bit.
+Drath Luk KGB_Putin was trained by the KGB to do this stuff. He went to sleep when spying in East Germany years ago, but Boris Yeltsin handed him the keys to the decrepit empire and thanks to big oil sales KGB_Putin took lessons in PR for just these situations (Bad times = smooth-as-silk lies).
+DataWaveTaGo Yes and? Bush was also the director of the CIA but did it give him any special priviliges? By the way, of course it's a PR campaign, why the fuck would they be taking questions from 2 million people instead?

+spartaknumerouno I know Russia is democratic, Putin for 16 years now, and he will be there until 2024+. Why? Leaders of the opposition parties keep dying off, they are too weak to withstand bullets and poison.
You do know when you ask this Man anything... he's quite straight to the point.
He is a great leader!
+Cris Py !6 years so far, he might step down in 2048. That is real democracy, Soviet Style!
Mass Murderer? Interesting, how?
He was....
Oh gosh, the comments' section down below aged so terribly
Ikr
I'm only 51 seconds in and I can already hear the hype in the womans voice, I turned her off and went somewhere else.
Yes, her entire presentation is disingenuous and aims to suggest rabid paranoia in people to lead them away from considering the truth of the matter. CBC has turned to shit, and reporting like this video is the end result.
Cbc is owned by liberals. We are like dictated what we can here. Peole are so ignorant on what are none educated priminister is doing to our country
Putin is Great! you have many fans here in New Zealand.
Vlad has fans the world over. And believe me; the #s are growing Rapidly.
***** croak of shit.
***** BBC you think that's impartial news, Putin is polling at 87% fact.
***** I can meet your challenge but why do I need to waste my time trying to convert a person like yourself, you seem to be an anti Putin man so I have better things to do with my valuable time bye.
Mr Putin, seems to be loved and adored everywhere
I wish they had this in Canada
As a canadian i say lets be friends all of us no war anywhere.. anytime.. humans all have these things in common they want fair wage retirement happy healthy kids good schools access to medical clean society freedom of choice..
I wish bro....
Hopefully Canada build's better relations with Russia. They are in a sense, our direct neighbours apart from US and Greenland
america wont likw that because we are a vassal of them
Apparently the Russian government was pissed off at Canada for legalizing weed. I guess they don't like that there. Go vodka or go home.
I have no idea how it's any of their damn business, mind you.
@@devilsoffspring5519 Probably "Influencing" Their People idk
@@devilsoffspring5519 oh well, Canada can still be friends with us then 🇺🇸
@@siberiusstuph As if Russians need any "influence" from another country over how to get intoxicated. They're kinda experts when it comes to that :)
now this is what I call a president of a super power
KGB_Putin is a little rat running Stalinist tactics to keep all Russians afraid of anything that he does not approve of. That's why Russians call in to his KGB_ Putin_Nation Show to ask him what kind of dog to buy for a pet.
Bush Senior is still briefed by the CIA being a past director of this terror organisation.
Right👏🏾🤛🏻 because USA is a hyper-power. We are the owner of this world.
@G Holmes How wrong you are friend. USA is living on infinite debt. Russia has NONE. Putin is an amazing president
despite what the west says. Trump was a clown. Is America great yet?
I just checked your source. Russian debt is 17 % gdp. USA debt is 130 percent. Yes I agree. You dont dont know what you are talking about. I never assumed you were american. Just uninformed.
No marlarkey with President Putin. He speaks his mind. Another breath of fresh air.
1:11
this guy literally pointed with 4 fingers I'm dead
Its because of his combat training... One finger is an aggressive symbol, four is like "movement"... Or in this case permission.
its called a knife hand
This is true elsewhere also
judo chop
False.... Aggression is something desired in combat. Speaking from experience... The knife hand is an authoritative gesture.
I'm not surprised that this is virtually the only CBC The National video that does not have the comments disabled.
PUTIN IS GREAT! from Canada with love!
Alice Evonic Why? I'm Canadian and like Putin too. He's a great leader and you can't deny it.
HAIL PUTIN THE PEACEKEEPER
Alice Evonic I understand why you'd dislike him, but look at the bigger picture here and you'd be surprised.
Alice Evonic Putin is doing good work in Syria.
One of the GREATEST leaders ever , few will match him EVER.
He is way more frank person than the Trudashian.
+Jo1974 But like all past Soviet leaders he lies well.
+DataWaveTaGo oh yeah, Trudashian doesn't lie.
Jo1974 And he doesn't have his political rivals murdered. Putin has a lot of blood on his hands. The murder of opposition politician Boris Nemtsov
Anna Politkovskaya - 2006 The 48-year-old journalist, a prominent critic of Mr Vladimir Putin, was gunned down at her Moscow apartment block on 7 October 2006, the president's birthday.
Sergei Magnitsky- 2009 Lawyer Sergei Magnitsky died in police custody in November 2009 after allegedly being denied medical treatment and brutally beaten. He was investigating a multi-million tax fraud against the Russian state
Stanislav Markelov and Anastasia Baburova - 2009 Leading human rights lawyer Stanislav Markelov was gunned down in broad daylight on 19 January, 2009.
I will stop for now, but there is many more.Chew on those for now.
A new survey by the independent Levada Center pollster has found that their work might be of limited use - more than a quarter of the Russians questioned said they were reluctant to express their views in opinion polls.
Twenty-six percent of those questioned in the poll said they were averse to expressing their view on current affairs when surveyed, a poll published Friday on the Levada Center's website showed. Slightly fewer people, 23 percent, said they also felt uncomfortable about discussing such matters with their colleagues and 17 percent felt apprehensive even in a family context.
Almost half of those questioned, 49 percent, said they thought most Russians would be reticent to discuss current affairs when approached by pollsters.
The most popular explanation given for the aversion of speaking openly was fear of possible backlash on people's own lives - 56 percent of respondents thought fear of retribution was the main reason. One fifth of those questioned, 20 percent, said they thought people did not want to face the truth themselves.
Jackson Ryding Holeeee Crapppp! You know nothing as to how the KGB trained bandits set up "unfortunate" murders. Now I had not even mentioned Nemtsov, so stop projecting your deep felt desire to protect poor-liddle KGB_Putin who only has all Kremlin controlled media and a budget of billions$ to defend him. Poor, poor liddle Pootsy. Awwwww .... sniff ...
+DataWaveTaGo What an idiot
Putin is a real leader. 👍🇨🇦♥️
He was.....
I'm Italian, and here in Italy Putin is very welcome.
Not like MERKEL !!!
I'm Italian too but I currently live in Canada
laura baschi whop
TheCrazyKid1381
Italian Lamborghini costs more than your Canadian Economy
laura baschi a lot of Americans agree
Love how mainstream media will point out the cons of foreign media but refuse any similar accusations against them.
Liberal Propaganda Platforms.
...............Lately, Russia has been the voice of reason in the world. Canada and Russia should be the best of friends.
Putin is the real James Bond, the reincarnation of Christopher Lee and in general a complete Badass.
No matter what they say, Mr. Putin is without question the most influential leader of our times. I envy Russian people for having such a powerful and intelligent leader. I wish we had a leader like him in my country.
so you like murders
@@the-wolf1841 wtf???🇷🇺🇷🇺🇷🇺
dont know about that now eh?
Aged horribly wrong
Bet you don't think that now, yeesh.
gets the facts straight cbc
REPEATING in NOT REPORTING
I guess we Canadians can actually thank Donald Trump and his Trade War threats against us that made us actually stop being USA's lapdog. Putin wasn't wrong about that....
Ironic isn't it?
We need a leader like Putin
NOT!!!!
The Russians love him...He did a lot for the stability of his country...He has the ability to not only talk but help his people as well...The world should learn from him....Surprised that Canadians are trying to create a negative image of Putin,,,Work with him and the world will be better off
I really think we Canadians and Russia should make some kind of alliance, it would be very beneficial for both of us
Bruv.
If you take a look at Canada, it's beautiful.
But if you see Canada, it's a mess.
CBC don't be surprised if you loose all your viewers...
Did you know that South Korea just banned Russia from participating the Pyeongchang winter olympics over doping violations? Putin is also banned from watching the olympics in South Korea. I am so happy. Japan was not banned how lucky!
If this man ever sets foot on Canadian soil and isn't killed I have lost faith in my nation.
they will wipe you out from world map if anything happens to putin
If he steps foot here he will be guned to nothing
@@Springboi101how about learn how to spell first
Long live Rassia 🇷🇺
Long Live Vladmir Putin ❤

Putin > Trudeau
Putin has stolen billions from the people of Russia
Mike F: Let's be honest- Putin would hold Trudeau down, stretch him from here to Finland and then shave Justin's hair that that all the tards fawn over.
I don't like either of them but yes.
Ethan Silver so putin trump and Trudeau have stealing from the people in common. Trump steals from you right now it's called tariffs or another tax. 700 billion on military are you starting another war you can't win.
Go Buffalo!
Russia is under sanctions from major countries - which is one reason its economy is struggling. But if they can stick to their principles and build up their independence, they (unlike the US or to a lesser degree China) will not have to cow tow to the American empire's rules and interests.
I’m Scottish and I want putin as my pm
Canada wants him. Buzz off !
im sure putin has changed his tune about trudeau and his misfits by now and id bet it didnt take long
As a Canadian, Putin has more pride and focus on his own nation than the joke PM ruling Canada currently.
Putin is like a chuck norris meme you dont mess with him and he can do pretty much anything even verbally attack and you will feel it physically lol XD
i see putin hates justin and i respect that 🤘🏻
"State controlled media"...sounds familiar.
As a Japanese-Canadian I deeply apologize for CBC and Justin Trudeau
I LIKE WHERE PUTIN TALKS POSITIVE OF CANADA .
PUTIN PATIENTLY WAITED TILL TRUDEAU GOT A LITTLE OLDER & TRIED TO GET ALONG .
TRUDEAU DOES NOT SPOUT OFF CALLING PEOPLE MURDERERS .
HOWEVER I AM WITH TRUDEAU WHERE HE DOES NOT LIKE TRUMP WITH PUTIN-VERYMUCH . PWW
diversity is our weakness not our strength
Genetically speaking, that is the most false thing you could have possibly said. Economically speaking, that still shows that you don't remember your History lessons. Canada is built almost entirely of immigrants who came here in the late 20th century, and made us into the G7 nation we are today.
H -wite exactly. When has being divided been an advantage.???
Which politician is not WELL BRIEFED.
O you mean unlike the grip that our own government has on all the main news outlet here. Interesting, unsound, but interesting none the least even though the last comment the reporter made was just to make me laugh.
Maybe he is just well informed and knows what best for his country,this bias is practically dripping from the screen.Canada and Russia respecting each other is how it should and can be,but not with the tone being set by cbc here.To be clear Canada is no ones lap dog.
just love the man
As a Canadian putin you are amazing there are thousands of us Canadians that support you stay strong
@@carlosfasano800 learn english
Hopefully Canada will be one day part of Russia!
That is very well possible , wouldn't mind it either .
I hope I don't see people writing about how Canada and Russia should form an alliance. Russia does bad stuff just like the US and it's worse off in a lot of areas. I know the US also does bad things but I would rather see Canada closer to the US and UK than Russia.
If Trudeau has the mind as his father, it would be the opposite
Gole Zozol Then there's nothing to fear as Trudeau is just as critical of Putin as Harper was.
*****
Do you want me to count the wars and military actions that the USSR/Russia was involved in, because believe me I can. If the Soviet Union was so good, how come nobody liked it?
Russia is not the economic future. Their economy is going down the drain. Their economy solely depends on oil and their prices are going down. Putin isn't doing anything about it, he only wants to promote nationalism. He's been in power for 17 years, time to go into retirement.
dude you should have taken the Red pill instead. Maj Bruce Trahan ret
I want Canada and Russia to work together
That's a great plan, we could form a military alliance and annex the United States! One further step in the master plan for Canadian World Dominance :)
Shocked that commentss havnt been disabled yet
Next year will be better lol
Nice try Val. Propaganda move well played. However Canadians are far too smart to fall for it. 🇨🇦
As a Canadian, I love putin.
Really? This didn’t age particularly well in the slightest 🤦🏻♂
Putin: I can see Canada and Russia getting along well😀
2018: (Cyber attack on Canada by Russia and N. Korea.)
Me: (screams as if I were going super sain)
Long live Putin! Long live Russia!
Really? This didn’t age particularly well, did it (rhetorical question)? 🙄
Why can't the world get on? Simply religion, land and greed. Sad really :(
Putin is the coolest president of all time
Politic #1 in the world. We can only dream for such a politics in our countries.
Canada's thoughts on Russia: "Their President looks like the bass player from Green Day"
I’m from Canada and I gotta say that I hope Canada and Russia can get a better relationship with each other
coolest guy on the planet
Why not a CBC station in Russia?
We love u too putin
Canada needs to break our leash to the usa below us and build stronger ties with natural friends to our West, Russia and China. We have much in common as countries and as people
Look, Vlad. I’m Canadian. We aren’t angry that you invaded Ukraine. But we’re extremely disappointed.
Lapdog? Ok, your Tim Hortons Rewards card has been revoked , and because you really pissed us off we're sending you Justin Bieber.
Putin I'm sure spends Zero time thinking about Canada!!
Polished and scripted, an obvious PR exercise, but the fact that over 2 million questions were submitted is what's really interesting. Seems Russians do have a lot of questions they want answered.
The stereotype you just tried to create is very stupid to be honest. Hypocrisy in its prime.
How is it a PR exercise if well reasearched and asserted answers have been given? Or giving half-assed unsure answers without thought on the spot would have better? Use your brain a little bit.
+Drath Luk KGB_Putin was trained by the KGB to do this stuff. He went to sleep when spying in East Germany years ago, but Boris Yeltsin handed him the keys to the decrepit empire and thanks to big oil sales KGB_Putin took lessons in PR for just these situations (Bad times = smooth-as-silk lies).
+DataWaveTaGo Yes and? Bush was also the director of the CIA but did it give him any special priviliges? By the way, of course it's a PR campaign, why the fuck would they be taking questions from 2 million people instead?
***** Bush the elder. But otherwise wtf huh...
truth is the strongest tool. once you start using it, you become bullet-prove. and this guy is the king of the world. we can discuss it, we can even not agree with it, but that is all we can do about it :D
these comments aged like milk
Canada is a close ally of the US, they were there to march right in with us in WW2, and are our north neighbor. But Canada is its own country.
The National, are you TELLING us how we Canadians should think about Putin? Canadians aren't American lapdogs, The National is.
people go watch unedited full interview in RT ..THEN you will realize how authentic his interviews are
Love how Putin handled the Oligarchs not paying the workers
And with Ottawa's grip on the stage in Canada. There's little chance of a misstep. Close the CBC once and for all.
Putin... you’re my hero.
Wait... Did he understand what the reporter said?
if this aint bias .....
Welp, that didn't age well.
I know he has no respect for Justin.
My dad's a charmer and is one of a kind and thats it.
cbc im shaking my head on the rest of your words.
Why do they do an English voiceover, cant they just do subtitles instead??
This is Why I Love Putin. He's Honest and Fears Nothing. He's fair and Humble! Although some don't agree with his views I think he's Brilliant.
He was a good man
Was....
Russia has a CBC??
