Canada has just 7 days left to prevent Ovechkin—a supporter of murderers, terrorists, and criminals—from appearing publicly on its soil (on @NHL ice) and promoting Russia’s imperialist war. Are 🇨🇦 lawmakers indifferent to the fact that this promotion will cost many human lives?

Yes!
I agree with this decision completely. The people of Ukraine have suffered immeasurably from Vladimir Putin’s illegal war. Alberta is now home to 70k Ukrainian evacuees who remain unable to return home because of Russia’s invasion of their country. We in Alberta stand with them.

Yes!
Mark Carney: "Russia and Belarus are supporting this illegal and unjustified horrific war in Ukraine, as long as that's going on, there will be none of those athletes competing for their countries in Canada. So if you're asking specifically about the World Juniors, the Russians will not be there."

Russian terror against 🇺🇦 civilians—including children—is intensifying! Yet, the US President invites representatives of the Russian criminal, terrorist regime to his country for an official meeting. This US support for Russia escalates the war and leads to many more casualties.
Ukrainian children killed by Russia in October 2026. This month was one of the deadliest of 2026 in terms of child casualties.

The Mayor of the Finnish city of Turku said today that they will withdraw as hosts of the 2028 World Juniors if Russia is allowed in. Arbitration courts can find all the loopholes in IIHF regulations they want, but at the end of the day it's all about people and human values. yle.fi/a/7-10108006

Agree. Keep the killers out. Do not legitimize a barbaric national.
Der kan da slet ikke være nogen tvivl. Rusland skal IKKE være med i nogen sportsbegivenheder overhovedet. Hvorfor f..... er sport så korrupt? #icehockey #ishockey #sport #iihf

Četl jsem prohlášení mnohých našich politiků. A ani jeden neřekl, že začne konat, že navrhne vyhlášku či zákon,který zakáže veřejné vystupování 🇷🇺 občanů,že zakáže reklamu na 🇷🇺 válku na území ČR atd!Každý zase jen píše o nesouhlasu s účastí Rusů!Přestaňte být pokrytci a konejte!

In case there was any doubt…
Trump has done everything Putin has wanted him to do. In Helsinki he stood with Putin and disclaimed U.S. intelligence. He lobbied to bring Russia back into the G-7. He withheld military aid to Zelensky and pulled out of Syria to give Russia a freer hand. He questioned NATO, lifted sanctions on Deripaska-linked companies, and walked away from the INF Nuclear Treaty. He walked away from Open Skies, leaving European allies blind to what Russia was actually doing. He slowed down Starlink for Ukraine and struck a diesel fuel deal with Russia even though he could’ve gotten a better deal with Canada. How can you not see the link??

Obama: "I'm not making this up -- the president of the United States is spending time supergluing gold medallions to the mantle in the Oval Office. He's literally doing arts and crafts while we are fighting a war and trying to deal with out of control prices."

The daughter of a key Russian Shahed drone producer is reportedly living comfortably in Toronto, having attended Humber Polytechnic and now working as an online influencer. Canada must sanction him and investigate her status. newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/osin…

When those first unofficial results started rolling out, there was silence here at the APP watch party and I heard someone say “uh oh.” Then, no reaction when CBC projected that the remain side had won the vote. I saw a couple people cross their arms.

Stay in Canada. No to the Nine. No to Danielle Smith.
Today you have a ballot in front of you. “Yes to the Nine” means Alberta gets a real say over our own immigration, so growth matches the housing, schools and hospitals we have to support it. It means temporary programs contribute to the services they use. It means constitutional reforms that protect this province's authority no matter who sits in Ottawa. Vote today. ✅ Vote for a stronger Alberta within a united Canada. ✅ Vote yes to the nine.

Haha. We’ll said!
Abdul El-Sayed: “My name is not the reason you can’t afford your gas or groceries or to go see a doctor. Their war in Iran is the reason why. Their insane tariffs on Canada is the reason why. If you’re picking a fight with Canada, you’re the asshole.”

This US reporting was dramatically incorrect. It cites Canadian media, including Global and CBC. In every breaking story there is a fog of confusion. Report the facts and don’t speculate. And don’t rely on the New York Post for your info.

Heartbreaking. I’m also thinking about first responders, health care providers, and reporters who will tell the dreadful stories as they unfold. My sincere condolences to all those impacted by this tragic event. I guess that’s all of us Canada.
The Canadian flag will fly at half-mast on federal buildings across Canada. All Canadians stand with the service members at CFB Wainwright, their families, and their community.
