Vladimir Putin offers a ceasefire deal. Should Ukraine accept it?

Tonight on The Ezra Levant Show, Ezra Levant discusses Vladimir Putin’s proposal for a ceasefire with Ukraine?

Did you hear about it?

Click here to see how Ezra describes the Canadian media's response on tonight's episode of The Ezra Levant Show.

Some can call it propaganda, a trick, or a lie. Some can say it ought to be rejected — or whatever your point of view is. But did you even hear about it?

Maybe you did. Here’s how the Globe and Mail, our country’s self-described "newspaper of record" reported on it: "Ahead of peace summit, Putin demands to keep parts of Ukraine."

Here's an excerpt:

"One day before the start of a summit in Switzerland aimed at advancing a plan to end the war in Ukraine, Russian President Vladimir Putin has made it clear that he is still seeking Kyiv’s capitulation, not a negotiated peace deal.

A weekend meeting at the Bürgenstock Resort, near Lucerne, which many Western leaders are attending, but Russia wasn’t invited to participate in, is expected to end with the endorsement of parts of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s 10-point peace plan, which calls for a complete Russian withdrawal to pre-2014 borders – before Russia seized and illegally annexed the Crimean Peninsula from Ukraine.”

So the Burgenstock meeting is the peace summit. Putin is belligerent — he doesn’t want a deal. That’s how the Globe reports it.

As usual, the Western media coverage of the situation leaves a lot to be desired.

How is it a peace meeting if the enemy isn't even there?

It is pathetic when you have 5 running for mayor and 24 for city Councillor and you can't come up with 8 you would vote for for Councillor. I pass by if they are a civil servant or don't know the responsibility of the different levels of government. This is Red Deer. I have been waffling on Mayor but have finally made up my mind. Two former city Councillors are HELL NO's and hope to see their asses in rear view mirror.

Tamara Lich and Chris Barber got 12 months of house arrest today for “mischief.”
Not violence.
Not property damage.
Mischief.

Peaceful Canadians—criminalised for daring to speak out. The same justice system that drops charges for real crimes and lets violent offenders walk free spent three years trying to break two people who stood for freedom.
The Crown had outrageously demanded seven years in jail to make an example out of them.

Why?
To warn you.
To scare anyone who might ever peacefully defy the state again.

Even the judge admitted Chris Barber “came with the noblest of intent” and never called for violence.

But it didn’t matter. They needed bogeymen.

We remember all the others:
Maxime Bernier was handcuffed in Manitoba for speaking at a peaceful rally.
Mark Friesen was fined thousands for organizing gatherings.
Randy Hillier saw convoy charges stayed after years of harassment.
Todd Dube was ...
