Mr. Speaker, tensions are escalating again between Russia and Ukraine. Armed conflict is imminent.
Let us look at the evidence. Even though no Russian soldier has set foot in Ukraine yet, the country is already under attack. For weeks, the Government of Canada has been claiming it will impose harsh sanctions against Russia in the event of an invasion. The attack has started, and Ukraine needs support from its allies now, not once it is too late.
Will the government immediately issue preventive sanctions to dissuade Moscow from taking action?
