I spoke with President @ZelenskyyUa today. We agreed that decisions on the future of Ukraine must be made by Ukrainians, that international borders cannot be changed by force, and that diplomatic engagement must be reinforced by continued pressure on Russia to end its aggression. We also underscored the need for robust and credible security to enable Ukraine to defend its territorial integrity and sovereignty.
As negotiations work toward securing a just and lasting peace, Canada’s support for Ukraine is steadfast.
We’re rebuilding, rearming, and reinvesting in the Canadian Armed Forces.
At the Maritime Test Range in Nanoose Bay, B.C., I met with some of the Naval officers who keep Canadians safe every day. Thanks to @Comd_RCN for the warm welcome and for your leadership.
The Canadian Armed Forces keep Canada strong — and it’s time we invest in that strength.
From today until July 21, Lord Strathcona’s Horse (Royal Canadians) mount the King’s Life Guard at Horse Guards - only the 3rd non-UK unit in history to do so.
A proud moment of Canadian nationhood & sovereignty, and a great example of Canada’s enduring commitment to its Allies.
Canadians: polite, apologetic, and fiercely patriotic. We're proud to serve and defend this amazing country of ours.
Happy #CanadaDay from your Canadian Armed Forces; we stand on guard for thee! 🇨🇦

Happy #CanadaDay from your Defence Team! 🇨🇦
Warmest congratulations to @MarkJCarney and the entire Canadian people on Canada Day. This day celebrates a nation that has become a shining example of unity, democracy, and the defense of freedom.
Throughout its history, Canada has become home to many Ukrainians, who today form one of the most influential Ukrainian diasporas in the world.
Canada stands with Ukraine in our most difficult times, providing financial and defense assistance, humanitarian support, and playing a vital role in ramping up pressure on Russia through sanctions.
We are deeply grateful to all Canadians for this unwavering commitment and valuable contribution. Together, we are stronger. Together, we stand for the values that unite our nations.
Happy Canada Day!
I met with President @ZelenskyyUa at the G7 to share the next phase of Canada’s support for Ukraine:
Canada will provide new military support — including drones, armoured vehicles, and equipment Ukraine needs to defend its sovereignty.
We’re also disbursing a $2.3B loan to help Ukraine rebuild its infrastructure, and advancing a new sanctions package that targets Russia’s illicit shadow fleet and energy revenues.
Canada’s support for Ukraine remains unwavering.
Today, a brilliant operation was carried out — on enemy territory, targeting only military objectives, specifically the equipment used to strike Ukraine. Russia suffered significant losses — entirely justified and deserved.
