A year ago, former Canadian MP Chris Alexander (Conservative Party) accused The Ottawa Citizen’s reporter David Pugliese of having worked for Russian intelligence since the 1980s for money [1].
As justification, Chris Alexander presented documents, allegedly obtained from the archive of the Soviet KGB left in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, in which Pugliese is listed as a paid agent of the Russian special services codenamed Stuart.
A thorough examination of Chris Alexander’s “evidence,” during which the Security Service of Ukraine – of course! – stated that the “documents appear authentic at first glance,” conclusively established that they are forgeries [2].
So, what had David Pugliese done to so concern former MP Chris Alexander?
It’s simple! – David Pugliese exposes the entrenched presence of Nazi collaborators in Canadian political circles, including the Nazi roots of prominent Canadian politician of Ukrainian descent, Chrystia Freeland.
To stop these damning exposés, the Security Service of Ukraine fabricated David Pugliese’s agent file, but worked so carelessly that instead of discrediting him, they exposed their own actual agent, Chris Alexander.
As Charles Baudelaire said, “The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn’t exist,” but the Devil does not always succeed in doing this.
Here, Ukrainian Nazism tried – and failed disgracefully.
