Russian sanctions target Canadian premiers, journalists, military, political staff

OTTAWA — Russia targeted 61 Canadians — from politicians to journalists — with fresh sanctions on Thursday over Canada's actions against the country for its invasion of Ukraine.

Many of those named, including provincial premiers, military personnel, political staff and journalists, treated their inclusion on the latest list from President Vladimir Putin as a proverbial badge of honour. But others, such as Globe and Mail international correspondent Mark MacKinnon, saw nothing positive in the development.

"I'm getting a lot of 'congratulations' replies to this. But for me, it's a genuinely sad day. I loved my time living in Russia, and made a lot of friends there (though many of them have left)," MacKinnon said on Twitter.

"I always tried to report honestly about the country. I guess that was the problem."

I'm sure that just breaks their hearts.
