PM Carney: “Just arrived in Kyiv, Ukraine.  On this Ukrainian Independence Day, and at this critical moment in their nation’s history, Canada is stepping up our support and our efforts towards a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.”

Wow - not surprised but still

Harper cut health care spending and increased the age of eligibility for Old Age Security from 65 to 67. (Trudeau changed it back.) Pierre Poilievre says he wants to bring back Harper policies. Be careful what you vote for.
