'Do more:' Ukrainian President Zelenskyy urges Canada to help stop Russian aggression | FULL

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed Canada's House of Commons in a historic session, pleading for the Canadian government to impose more sanctions on Russia along with its allies to stop the invasion.

Zelenskyy’s virtual address began with an impassioned plea for Canadians to put themselves in the shoes of Ukrainians facing shelling and horrific violence at the hands of Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“Can you imagine when you call your friends, your friendly nation, and you ask 'please close the sky, close the airspace, please stop the bombing, how many more cruise missiles have to fall on our cities until you make this happen?'” he said, urging a no-fly zone to be imposed over Ukraine.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other leaders of the NATO military alliance have ruled out a no-fly zone in Ukraine despite repeated pleas from the country’s leadership.

Leaders of political parties followed Zelenskyy by statements, praising the people of Ukraine and calling for a tougher response to Russia.

This is stupidity at its finest. Standing ovation while his citizens are dying because of him. Has the world gone insane?

[beautifulwaterfall]

Zelenskyy: "I don't need a standing ovation, I need a no-fly zone!"

[ousmanbarrow]

Why all people are standing now for Ukraine and other countries are still in war but nobody stand for them this is not what we should do we need to stand for every country because we're all human beings let's stop this hypocrite things in this world and we all need to stand together as one world one love

[moody]

Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on, or by imbeciles who really mean it.

[elliottb]

something about justin fighting for freedom and human rights after he froze the bank accounts of a few truckers and supporters seems off.

[codyclace]

What if we take all the claps and use that combined power as a sonic boom to defend the skies!?

I got it! Send parliament! Problem solved

[jackbenimble]

Not too many people that wear a suit and stand in front of a country tell the truth anymore .

[CoyotePretty]

Trudeau should go live in Ukraine and leave us Canadians to live in peace.

[idilu]

This the ripple effect of syria and iraqi children and women killed

Reflect on your own authoritarianism buds. Evil is evil no matter where it takes place.

“Filmed before a live studio audience”

[lanaali]

Double standards!!! .. they never had interest on the name of free democratic and truth about people dying in Yemen and Syria, indeed it's part of the core resisim system west always deployed.
African, native American, ... and the list so huge.

[simont.s.]

no one talking about the nazis in ukraine. what a shame

[julienbrunelle]

Fool me once WW1
Fool me twice WW2
Shame on you... 8 year civil war and biolabs.,

[roselynbautista]

We want Canada as a safe country we don't need war zelensky

[mahdisalah]

A very difficult decision to make: do nothing and keep watching people die or help Ukraine and start WW3 which will lead to the death of even more people.
It's like the entire humanity is forced into a situation in which death is inevitable.

[tikydacouassi-ble]

Why is he allowed to have an audience and talk down to people for something HE should have been prepared for? You apparently wanted a war but ask others to do more because you are unprepared??? I am not even sure how to qualify this. The support he got an the coordination of media to support him seems to show that this is beyond Ukraine. What is there to gain in that conflict may be the real question.

[wurdofwizdumb]

I want the people of Ukraine to live in peace. Starting world war 3 in the name is peace is a terrible idea.
In my opinion we shouldn’t let emotional heart strings pull us into a conflict that we don’t want.
