Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has stated that Ukraine will lose the war if the US halts its military aid. He made these comments in relation to the potential suspension of funding under Donald Trump.

Trump has pledged during election rallies that America will end its involvement in the war and redirect taxpayer money to improving the lives of Americans.

Currently, Ukraine is heavily dependent on the US to continue the fight. According to Trump, he would end the war within 24 hours, although he has not disclosed how he intends to do so. In response, President Zelensky has expressed concerns that if Trump cuts funding, it could lead to Ukraine's defeat. He also warned that such a move would be dangerous for European unity.

It is worth noting that many Republicans are advocating for the cessation of US taxpayer funding for Ukraine.

Migrant advocates urge federal government to withdraw proposed border security law

Migrant rights organizations are urging the federal government to abandon Bill C-12, legislation they warn could severely limit access to Canada’s refugee system. The proposed border security bill is currently before House of Commons committees, with clause-by-clause review scheduled at the national security committee this week. The bill features several significant changes to immigration and asylum procedures, including a provision that would prevent people who have lived in Canada for more than a year from submitting a refugee claim to the Immigration and Refugee Board.

Search continues for grizzly after Bella Coola school group attacked, Nuxalk Nation raises support funds

British Columbia conservation officers say they are continuing to search the Bella Coola Valley for the grizzly bear involved in a sudden attack on an elementary school group last week. Three students and a teacher were hospitalized on Thursday after the bear charged a group of about 20 people who had stopped for lunch during a field trip. Officials now believe the incident likely involved a mother grizzly with two cubs, a situation that can increase defensive behaviour. Conservation officers have placed traps in the area and are urging residents and visitors to avoid nearby forested trails wh

Snowfall warning in southeastern B.C. as weekend storm drenches south coast

Environment Canada is cautioning travellers in southeastern British Columbia as a winter storm brings up to 20 centimetres of snow to the Elk Valley region near the Alberta border.

The advisory stretches across Alberta’s southern boundary with the United States and into parts of southern Saskatchewan. The weather office says the snowfall is tied to a low-pressure system tracking across the Prairies, creating challenging conditions on highways frequently used by t
