Why were people in Canada and Germany blaming higher energy prices on environmental policies like the carbon tax or wind farms and not on the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Russia exported lots of gas and the war meant that other countries couldn’t just buy Russian gas and support an invasion of a foreign (white) nation.
