Ironic that our very own sanctioned  Minister of Foreign Affairs Freeland is the front person for sanctioning the Syrians.

Is sanctioning an effective strategy?

In Ms. Freeland's case Canada sees sanctioning as a total non-event.
. 
It does not seem to matter that she is sanctioned by a member of the UNs security council.....  In the Liberals world there is no higher authority than the UN... yet Ms. Freeland is not made accountable for her actions.
