Finally, we hear actual legal terms. Thank you @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu
As someone who studied EU Policy, I appreciate this.
My question is though - how stable is any ceasefire if Russia is entitled to keep what they occupied even if the change to actual, legal UA borders isn’t recognized?

As a Canadian, I am most proud that our government is part of the three country coalition to bring home the tens of thousands of Ukrainian children that Russia stole from their families.

This reminds me of Cardinal John Henry Newman's book Definition of a Gentleman. I often cite Newman's book because it's so instructive. The term gentleman is so overwrought and frequently abused, but to the degree it means anything at all, I think Newman captures it here:

Electricity is about to become the new base currency and China figured it out
As we accelerate into an all-electric, all-digital age, the ultimate representation of productive capacity becomes the kilowatt-hour (kWh).

Good to hear PM Carney say positive things on #climate, but "meeting Paris targets" really doesn't mean anything.
What we need is a specific commitment for Canada to clarify it's 2030/35 targets, and go (way) further to meet our fair share toward those Paris targets.

A major win for the planet, and for the Greens. Elizabeth May just secured a historic on-the-record promise from PM Mark Carney: Canada will meet our Paris climate targets and our Kunming–Montreal biodiversity goals. We’re not here for talk, we’re here for results.
