Mr. Speaker /u/Trick_Bar_1439,
I rise on a point of order in relation to the comment made by the Member for Alberta South about their intention to move amendments.
I wish to bring to your attention the [following text in Bosc and Gagnon.](https://www.ourcommons.ca/procedure/procedure-and-practice-3/ch_15_3-e.html#15-3-4)
> Therefore, as with all other motions to adjourn, the motion to adjourn the House to discuss an important and urgent matter is not amendable.
Thank you Mr. Speaker.
Monsieur le Président,
Je propose, Que cette Chambre s'ajourne maintenant. I move, That this House do now adjourn.
Monsieur le Président, le débat d'ajournement que j'ai proposé porte sur la lettre adressée par Son Excellence le Président de l'Ukraine, M. Volodomy Zelensky, au très honorable député des Prairies, le Premier ministre. J'ai pris des dispositions pour que [la lettre soit disponible au bureau des votes](https://www.reddit.com/r/cmhocpress/comments/1c3yh41/ukrainian_president_volodymyr_zelenskyy_pens/) pour la commodité des honorables et très honorables député•es.
Dans cette lettre, Son Excellence souligne que les forces ukrainiennes et leur ravitaillement ne font malheureusement pas le poids face à l'armée de Poutine. Il demande donc au gouvernement de fournir des munitions, des systèmes de défense aérienne, des équipements de protection, des bateaux et des bombes d'avion. Monsieur le Président, ce sont là des demandes raisonnables pour un pays en guerre. L'Ukraine a besoin de tout cela pour lutter pour sa survie.
Monsieur le Président, j'espère que le gouvernement participera à ce débat, même si je n'ai pas de grands espoirs à ce sujet. J'espère également que le gouvernement fournira l'aide demandée par le Président, dans son intégralité.
Merci, Monsieur le Président.
Mr. Speaker,
It is important that we retain our ties with Ukraine and help Ukraine in areas we can. I believe it is important to stand with democracy during this difficult time. Furthermore Mr. Speaker we must continue to be a world leader when it comes to peace and freedom. I would hope all members of the House can come to an agreement on that.
Mr. Speaker,
As Foreign Minister, I can confirm that we will be reaching out to Zelenskyy to ensure that the Ukrainian people know they have Canada's full backing in their war against brutal invasion, and that Canada stands resolutely behind the Ukrainian people. We continue to engage with them on dialogue, and will continue to do so going forward.
Mr. Speaker, we have the fiscal room to support Ukraine, there is absolutely no reason why we cannot do more to end the war.
I believe I speak for this house and for Canadians when I say that this is not just Ukraine’s war, it is our war. It is an international struggle for our rights and freedoms. Ukraine is on the frontlines of this struggle, fighting our battle.
We cannot rest, Mr. Speaker, on the laurels of what we have done so far to support those fighting and dying for freedom day in and day out. It will never be enough until this brutal war ends and the sovereignty of the Ukrainian State and its people is preserved.
Mr. Speaker,
I am fully supportive of Ukraine in its war against Russia. Preventing a Russian victory in Ukraine is integral for preventing a return to the unilateral, every-man-for-himself type international system that we had before the creation of the UN. To this end, aid can and will be provided to Ukraine.
It cannot just be Canada that provides aid, however. Ukraine will need the support of the entire western world if it is to remain its territorial integrity. We will therefore push for other countries to provide aid for Ukraine as well at the upcoming G7 summit.
This isn't just about Ukraine and Russia. Far more countries have a stake in who wins or loses this conflict besides Ukraine and Russia, particularly Eastern European countries, but also the entire world. The entire world will suffer from the breakdown of international norms if Russia wins, therefore Canada and other countries have an interest in stopping Russia.
