The relationship between Canada and Russia has slid a long way from the days when Canadians were viewed with a special fondness rooted in the 1972 Summit Series and a shared love of hockey
Canadian Ambassador to Russia Sarah Taylor, left, and Russian President Vladimir Putin, right, attend a ceremony to receive credentials from newly arrived foreign ambassadors in Moscow, Russia, Nov. 5.
One such demonstration earlier this year saw a crowd of perhaps two dozen people stand outside Ms. Taylor’s official residence. In a video broadcast on Russian state television, the crowd waved orange-and-black flags, symbolizing support for the invasion of Ukraine, while chanting about Canada’s alleged support for “fascism.”
The Kremlin, meanwhile, almost completely ignores the Canadian embassy, other than on low-level issues such as consular cases. It all has a familiar echo for Ms. Taylor, who spent part of her childhood in what was then the capital of the Soviet Union, attending the famed Anglo-American School of Moscow while her father James Taylor was stationed at the Canadian embassy as political counsellor between 1967 and 1970.
