OTTAWA — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is on Parliament Hill and set to addressthe House of Commons, followinga series of meetings with senior Canadian officials.
MPs and senators are milling about the chamber, where seats have been placed along the central aisle, as is typical when foreign dignitaries address the Commons.
Zelenskyy thanked Canadians for their support and asked that it continue during remarks at the beginning of a meeting with Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. Also invited are former Gov.-Gen. David Johnston, who stepped down this year as special rapporteur on foreign interference, as well as Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami president Natan Obed, Chief of Defence Staff Gen. Wayne Eyre and RCMP Deputy Commissioner Brian Larkin.
CSE is calling on"operators of government and critical infrastructure websites — to adopt a heightened state of vigilance, and to bolster their awareness of and protection against malicious cyberthreats." Still, Zelenskyy and Trudeau were expected to talk about what more Canada can do to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia, 19 months after rockets starting raining down on Kyiv.
Just shy of two years later, more than 9,000 civilians have been reported killed, including more than 500 children — though the UN agency that is tracking casualties warns the actual figures are likely much higher. "To move on this battlefield to liberate each and every village, it takes very careful operations," she said.
