The Prime Minister said that, as a middle power, Canada understands how important it is to protect the rules-based international order

Summary

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau opposed any deal letting Russia keep Ukrainian land, saying it would encourage other countries to break international rules.

Speaking to a NATO meeting, he highlighted Canada’s $19.5 billion aid to Ukraine and stressed the need to defend global stability.

Trudeau defended his plan to raise military spending to 2% of GDP by 2032 after criticism of Canada’s low defense funding.

He warned against isolating Ukraine, saying continued support is crucial to stop further global conflicts.

        Oh, they’re working on it.

        Trudeau needs to step down. He’s been ok, but I honestly don’t think he’d win another election. The Trudeau hate is insane.
