The premiers and I agree: we must build one strong Canadian economy, not thirteen. So we will work together to break down internal trade barriers. #DebatDesChefs

A year ago, on April 15, 2024, Pavlo Petrychenko - Euromaidan activist, organizer of the “Who Ordered Katya Handziuk?” campaign, and junior sergeant of the 59th Brigade - was killed in Donetsk the day before his 32nd birthday. Герої не вмирають.

Sumy wasn’t a mistake. It was murder, it was a war crime. And unless Europe steps up, it will go unpunished.

Russia pretends to be a religious country. We must look not at words but at actions. This Sunday, many people celebrate the great Christian holiday. And the Russians hit the center of Sumy with ballistic missiles. They killed at least 20 people this Sunday. Putin does not stop killing.

⚡️Ukrainian diaspora groups urge NHL to reject games with Russian league. “To organize any such events in partnership with Russian government or sporting officials would be to ignore, and thereby to implicitly endorse, Vladimir Putin’s crimes,” the signatories write.

The US lied, claiming no tariffs on Russia due to lack of trade, says Le Monde. America still trades with Putin: the 2024 trade balance hit $3.5B, more than with Mauritius or Brunei. If Belarus and Russia were on the list, tariffs would be 42% and 24%. www.lemonde.fr/internationa...

George Milner from the United States is helping Ukraine during the full-scale invasion. His family from North Carolina has adopted three Ukrainian children, and George himself gathers resources to support Ukraine and visits occupied territories. Thank you, Sir! 📹: Voice of America

18-yr-old Russian soldier’s last video to his mom. He gathered cash for commanders so they wouldn’t send his friends on assault. Ended up there himself—his own squad offed him on orders.

Residents of Sudzha are telling what seems to be a foreign correspondent how it really was when Ukrainian fighters took the town. Unsurprisingly, their accounts differ sharply from the staged tales of "Polish mercenary rapists" filmed by Russian propaganda in Sudzha.

⚡️ Russia has struck Ukraine's energy sites 8 times since Putin's claimed pause, Zelensky's advisor says. "We’re not going into all the details, but there have already been eight confirmed hits on energy facilities" since March 18, President Zelensky's advisor Dmytro Lytvyn said on March 25.

Jaw dropping … the only country that is threatening Greenland is … Trump and Vance. Protecting the “security of the entire world”? Bullock! This is a ruse. Greenland is covered under NATOs Article 5. Never mind that it sounds like a Mr Dresssup episode.

No truer words have been spoken & countries on the eastern flank know it. NATO Article 5 will never be invoked for the Baltic states, Poland or Romania; countries under the greatest threat from Putin ie NATO won’t invoke Art 5 in response to a hybrid incident & Putin knows it. He is the 👑 of hybrid

Italy has suspended the Starlink $1.6 billion purchase negotiations with SpaceX amid Musk being a Nazi and a Trump / Russia collaborator. Italy cites security concerns about the reliability of the US.

Witkoff's repeating of Kremlin lies about "russian-speakers" wanting to "join Russia" is truly chilling. This is nothing less than carte blanche for Putin's genocidal imperialism. Hearing Americans talk like this should be an electric shock for Europe, not a wakeup call.

Hey Ron DeSantis, Canada thinks your politics suck. We have stopped visiting and we have stopped buying. Look at the precipitous drop in orange juice sales. Lol. The boycott is strong and getting stronger.

This was the view from my bedroom window onto Peace Street (Vulytsya Myru) in central Bakhmut, eastern Ukraine, 13 years ago this weekend. Snowy, peaceful and home to 80,000 people. Fast forward to today, and the city has been destroyed and occupied by Russia. Population: 0.

Forgetting brings impunity. russians carpet-bombed Mariupol, blocked civilian evacuations, forced people to seek refuge in the Drama Theater, bombed it too, and then kept shelling the area to make any rescue mission impossible. There can be no normalization with this evil.

Just do it!

Russia has kidnapped tens of thousands of Ukrainian children. Putin was indicted for this crime. Yale has a unit searching for them. Musk eliminated the funding. inews.co.uk/news/world/m...

The Institute for the Study of War confirmed that there is no geolocation evidence of encirclement of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region. At the same time, Zelensky reported that the operation of our forces in designated areas of the Kursk region continues.
