BREAKING: PM Carney announced Canada will DENY entry visas to the Russian national hockey team for next month's World Junior Championship. As long as Moscow continues its invasion of Ukraine, Russian and Belarusian athletes will not set foot on Canadian soil (or ice). Good call. 🇨🇦🇺🇦

Sounds like canada will not issue visas to the russians

ZERO visas to russians.
⚡️BREAKING: Finnish Foreign Minister Elina Valtonen warned that Russian athletes will not be welcome in Finland next year if Russia continues its war against Ukraine.

Valtonen announced plans to push EU counterparts to restrict Russian athletes from entering the entire Schengen area.

Not if they don't get visas. Pretty sure Alberta plays no role in issuing of visas.

Mark Carney: "Russia and Belarus are supporting this illegal and unjustified horrific war in Ukraine, as long as that's going on, there will be none of those athletes competing for their countries in Canada. So if you're asking specifically about the World Juniors, the Russians will not be there."

Stop giving them Schengen visas, they are everywhere, like rats.

Just require visas and then deny visas. Quite a few Albertans must have a Ukrainian ancestry. My grandmother did.

I think I remember reading somewhere that healthcare worker visas dropped by 60~%. That must be mad crippling for the healthcare system. I cannot imagine this can go on much longer.

Digital nomad visas, great food, and LA like weather with European subways and trains.

The PM solved an issue by denying Visas to the Russians 👍

That's before you consider the ruinous costs they have to pay to get their visas renewed every few years not to mention the additional admin burden on employers who have to demand new share codes from them every six months and check their validity or risk prosecution.

Utterly stupid.

How about no Schengen visas for anyone from that dump?

Canada needs to do two things. First, boycot any games with Russians and second, refuse visas for their entry into Canada in December.

May as well have gone all-in and started selling 'golden visas'...

Carney took care of it. No visas for Russia and Belarus. 🇨🇦

Russia could go back to CAS and demand that tournaments be moved from countries that won’t issue visas. The IIHF would argue that there isn’t time to do that this season, and with participating countries and sponsors threatening boycotts, there are no realistic alternatives.
Once the IIHF informs Hockey Canada that Russia is reinstated for the World Junior (as ordered by CAS) expect the matter to be referred to the federal government, which will then officially announce what it has said in the past: it will not issue visas for Russia to participate in the tournament.
Czech authorities will not issue visas to Russian hockey players for the junior world championship. The Sports Arbitration Court decision allowing Russian hockey players to take part in international competitions does not oblige the Czech
