I didn’t come here to sign a contract. I’d rather take my chances in Canada, though I think living there is risky too.
You'd have to watch Canadian society treat people you hate with respect. The horror.

- If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
- Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you're only using an excerpt from an article that's otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.)

Nonsense. Just move to Alberta.
All the racists and incel roughnecks and insane police violence and systematic rape of first nations peoples. You just don't have a risk of being pushed into the Ukraine meat grinder.
Please, no. Please? This is how we got into this mess in the first place. We were slightly more conservative than the Canadian average 25 years ago and then all the rest of the country dumped their social rejects on us. Our population doubled in like 10 years and now we have Danielle Smith running the province. Please, I'm begging you, stop sending every failed Ontario washout to Alberta.

This guy hates gay people so much he moved his family to Russia. But he doesn't hate them enough to die in Ukraine.
It's ironic that a Christian got in trouble because they couldn't hate enough.

As a Canadian, I truly hope that others like him follow his example.
We don't need their kind around here.
I truly hope that others like him follow his example.

Fucking hilarious, I hope we dont accept him back, when his permit expires
Enjoy living in the airport with your wife and 8 children, shitstain. Hope it was worth it.
I understand what it’s for and why [the authorities] want you to sign it.
I’d rather take my chances in Canada, though I think living there is risky too.
Last I checked, as a Canadian the only military defence contract I had to sign was when I voluntarily joined the armed forces, not just existing as a Canadian.
These people cannot be this stu....No.. No they are this fucking stupid. They are stupid, dumb mother fuckers.

I feel bad for his kids.
Thoughts as I was reading this:
He then brought his wife and eight children…
This is not someone who should be taken seriously. Not normal.
He also said his family no longer recommends that other foreigners move to Russia because the authorities keep changing the rules and “there’s no way forward.”
Haha, loser. Imagine finding out in 2026 that the Russian state is corrupt.
Since November 2025, foreign men ages 18 to 65 who are deemed fit for military service have been required to sign a contract with the Defense Ministry to obtain a permanent residence permit in Russia. People who moved to Russia through the “traditional values” program are not exempt from this requirement.
Go get killed for the state, moron. Why do you think they let you in? Because they're nice and friendly? They need cannon fodder, you dolt.
I thought one of the "traditional values" these guys love is men being protectors? So he should be thrilled to serve in the military to "defend" his family and the "traditional values" he loves so much
Thinking that Russia, a country with the highest rate of HIV, abortion, CSAM, child prostitution, and drug use has traditional values is proof that online propaganda works.
Yeah but they don't like "the gays" so it evens out I guess.
CSAM, child prostitution
Glances at news
My guy I think those ARE the traditional values they want.

the idiot also likely doesnt want to learn Russian, which is required if you want to surive in russia.
Oh yeah. Been following this guy for the schadenfreude for awhile. When he first moved there he was surprised that workers at the random Russian bank he went to didn’t speak English. Dude is so fucking stupid

Dont come back, fucker.
What's more traditional values than dying for your liegelord in an offensive war that doesn't benefit you even if won though?

How can someone move his family with 8 children to a war zone? "Traditional values" what the fuck?
when they are so brain damaged that war is an adventure like in the TV but knowing that some person in Canada is cay and exists, that's the real danger!!!

Did he think Russia was taking them in out of the goodness of their heart? They need meat for the meat grinder.
He thought he could be a social media influencer for the Russian conservative pundit class.
Guess not.

The only way to guarantee citizenship is to enlist? Sounds familiar..
Is sadly better in that respect than the US, where we require complicated paperwork to gain citizenship through military service, and deport those veterans who make errors or miss paperwork deadlines.
It’s so funny that some people think Russia has traditional values. It was an atheist country up until 30 years ago, and today when people say they’re religious, what they mean is they go to church a couple of times a year at most. Not to mention, today they have a very high divorce rate/many single mother households. How are these traditional values?
When people say they want traditional values, they mean racism, gay-bashing and misogyny. Russia has those. This loser is mostly upset because they want him to fight in ukraine in exchange for permanent residency.
Yeah "traditional values" = "I get to hit the people who are forced into dependency on me"
My father is a traditional values type and I remember him complaining to me when I was like ten that "spousal rape" was a thing.
He also hit us.

Surely getting over the fact that other people don't necessarily want to live your religious lifestyle would have been easier and safer
Well I feel bad for the eight children. Enjoy being fodder and not at a farm.
Good to know. Because, I was just about to move there. I hear Siberia is lovely in the winter. Also, I was promised a free trip to Ukraine. Two countries for one price, what a deal!
Now if only a few hundred US MAGAts would follow his example
The most unbelievable part of this whole story is that someone would admit to their mistake.
They have traditional values in Russia. It's just that they are Stalin's traditional values.
