With inflation destroying family budgets, hundreds of thousands are fearful that they are unable to manage the soaring energy costs -- that we just can’t afford.

The high prices of energy and gasoline have critical effects on cost-of-living increases in our daily lives... Inflation is hitting families hard, especially low-income and elderly Canadians.

People are getting ridiculously high new energy bills, and many businesses are in danger of closing.

The whole world is in crisis. Canada is in crisis. We must take action before it’s too late!

Tension on the Ukrainian/Russian border has been mounting for weeks.

Now, early Thursday morning, in Ukraine, Russian soldiers invaded the sovereign nation of Ukraine. Russian forces advance from three fronts: the south (through Crimea, which was seized by Russia in 2014), the east, and the north.

Shortly after that, Russian President Vladimir Putin declared war on Ukraine.

After the first day of fighting, 137 people were killed and 316 injured.
