Canada is opening its arms to Ukrainians fleeing war by relaxing immigration rules.
The government is announcing expedited temporary visas for Ukrainians that will take just weeks to process, instead of the usual year.
Canada is also tightening its economic chokehold on Russian oligarchs, and booting Russia and its ally Belarus off its most favoured nation list of trade partners.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada and other close partners are calling for Russia's suspension from the international policing agency Interpol.
