Prime Minister Mark Carney and ministers speak briefly with reporters on Parliament Hill as the federal cabinet holds its weekly meeting. The prime minister, Minister Anita Anand (foreign affairs) and David McGuinty (defence) mark the fourth anniversary of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. They announce new sanctions against Russian and $2 billion in additional military aid for Ukraine.

Ministers Evan Solomon (AI), François-Philippe Champagne (finance), Sean Fraser (justice), Gary Anandasangaree (public safety) and Marc Miller (Canadian identity and culture) face questions on today’s meeting between federal government officials and representatives from OpenAI. The meeting comes in the wake of revelations that OpenAI banned an account associated with the Tumbler Ridge, B.C. shooter last June but failed to alert Canadian authorities.

Fraser also comments on Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act.

Marjorie Michel (health), Lena Diab (immigration) and Steven MacKinnon (government House leader) speak about Conservative opposition motion that calls for a review of the program that provides short-term health-care coverage for asylum seekers and some resettled refugees.

Heath MacDonald (agriculture and agri-food) and Champagne discuss the government’s upcoming trade mission to India.

Patty Hajdu (jobs and families), Mandy Gull-Masty (Indigenous services) and Maninder Sidhu (international trade) comment on applications for OAS, the water crisis in the remote First Nation northern community of Kashechewan, and the Canada-U.S. trade relationship.
