Canada will provide an additional $100 million in humanitarian aid for Ukraine as part of a global pledging drive that it convened with the European Commission.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau made the announcement during the Stand Up For Ukraine event that took place in Poland over the weekend. Trudeau co-hosted the event via video link with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, where he accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of deliberately targeting civilians in Russia’s ongoing invasion of Ukraine.
