Canadian parents who wanted to raise their 8 kids with "traditional values" moved to Russia. Wife now says, "I'm ready to jump on a plane and get out of here." http://boingboing.net/2024/02/15/canadian-parents-who-wanted-to-raise-their-8-kids-with-traditional-values-moved-to-russia-wife-now-says-im-ready-to-jump-on-a-plane-and-get-out-of- here.html
A Canadian family of eight sold their farm and moved to Russia. Why? They wanted to raise their kids in Russia's morally superior environment.
"Well, Canada is not the same country it used to be," said daddy in a video interview, "and we didn't feel safe for our children there in the future anymore. There's a lot of left-wing ideology, LGBTQ, trans, just a lot of things that we don't agree with that they teach there now, and we wanted to get away from that for our children."
But it didn't take long for the immigrants to regret their decision. Their Russian bank accounts were frozen, and since the family doesn't speak a lick of Russian, they have had trouble asking the morally superior Russian authorities to release their funds.
