Mr. Speaker, the short answer is yes, and I appreciate the question from the leader of the NDP.
Canada will contribute observers to an important military observer mission in a coordinated effort to better monitor the Russian military intervention in Crimea.
I can also announce today that at the request of the Prosecutor General of Ukraine, we will be imposing economic sanctions on members of the Yanukovych regime. I am also announcing that we are suspending our participation in a joint economic and commercial commission with Russia.
