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.

Environment Canada launches new polygon-based weather alert system

Environment Canada has introduced a new polygon-based alert system across Canada to provide more precise warnings about severe weather. The goal is to reduce unnecessary alerts being sent to people who are not directly in the path of a storm. Previously, when a severe storm warning was issued, alerts could be sent across an entire area, even if the storm was not expected to affect all of it. Under the new system, meteorologists will draw a specific polygon on a digital map to identify the areas facing the greatest risk. This means mobile alerts will be sent only to people located within the st

Ontario Liberal leadership race opens with debate over Ford record and need for legislature seat

Ontario Liberal leadership candidates, including former federal minister Navdeep Bains, took part in their first debate Monday night, with the five contenders criticizing Premier Doug Ford’s government on the economy, health care, education and affordability.

Quebec Premier Christine Fréchette says the province could allow U.S. wines to return to liquor store shelves, but only if there are gains for Quebec and Canada in ongoing trade discussions with the United States.

The Quebec government previously directed the province’s liquor board to stop selling U.S. products in response to tariffs announced by U.S. President Donald T
