Under pressure from the Ukrainian community and diplomats, the Canadian organization that financed the Russian propaganda documentary “Russians at War” said it would no longer support it.
This was announced by the Chair the Board of Directors of TVO, Chris Day.
“We have listened to the Ukrainian-Canadian community and their thoughtful and heartfelt input. TVO’s Board of Directors has decided to respect the feedback we have received, and TVO will no longer be supporting or airing Russians at War,” Day said.
He added that “TVO will be reviewing the process by which this project was funded and our brand leveraged.”

I have a feeling the film outline submitted for funding differed greatly from what was delivered. Still a real fumble.
