Col. Ilya Ranov : There must be no misconception about our relations with our former capitalist allies. Our interests can never coincide. Our rules and aims are quite different. We have no place for bourgeois sentimentalism, only relentless realism. The class struggle will continue, until this decadent, plutocratic democracy is as completely destroyed as National Socialism. Therefore, you, the representatives of the Soviet Union in Canada, will as always remain vigilant, suspicious, and aloof. That will be all.
