Carney says Trump ‘creating the opportunity' to end war in Ukraine

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Mark Carney says U. S. President Donald Trump is 'creating the opportunity to end Russia's illegal war in Ukraine.' Carney is praising the U.S. government's efforts to end the war in a statement today, after Trump met with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska on Friday. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy did not attend the summit, which ended without any agreement for a ceasefire or path to end the war. Carney says in his statement that Canada is co-ordinating closely with Zelenskyy and other partners to intensify steadfast support for Ukraine. Carney took part in talks Wednesday with European leaders and spoke directly with Zelenskyy on Monday. The prime minister says on social media that Canada's partners insist that Ukrainians decide their own future with diplomatic efforts reinforced by military and economic pressure on Russia so the war can end.

Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu to provide update on Air Canada labour dispute

OTTAWA – Jobs Minister Patty Hajdu is holding a news conference on Parliament Hill today to provide Canadians with an update on the Air Canada strike. Passengers around the world are feeling the effects after the union representing more than 10,000 flight attendants with Air Canada announced its members were walking off the job after it was unable to reach an eleventh-hour deal with the airline. The strike officially began just before 1 a.m. ET on Saturday and in turn, Air Canada locked out its agents about 30 minutes later due to the strike action. On Friday Hajdu urged the airline company and the union representing its flight attendants to get back to the negotiating table. In an interview with The Canadian Press, Hajdu said it's 'critical' that the two parties 'return to the table' to forge a deal on their own. Air Canada and business advocacy groups have called on the government to order binding arbitration to settle the dispute.
