Zelenskyy appeals for help from Canada in emotional speech

TORONTO (AP) — Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy asked Canadians Tuesday to imagine bombs landing in their communities as he urged the Canadian Parliament and government to exert greater economic and military pressure on Russia.

Zelenskyy asked Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and lawmakers for help to enact a no-fly zone over the Ukraine.

“Justin, can you imagine you and your children hearing all these severe explosions, the bombing of the airport, the bombing of the Ottawa airport?” Zelenskyy said. “Cruise missiles are falling down and your children are asking you ‘What happened?’”

Speaking by video from Ukraine to a packed House of Commons chamber, Zelenskyy said the Russian war on his country is designed to annihilate Ukraine and subjugate its people.

“Dear Justin, dear guests. Can you imagine that every day you receive memorandums about the number of casualties, including women and children?” he said. “You heard about the bombings. Currently we have 97 children that died during this war.”

Zelenskyy evoked British wartime leader Winston Churchill as he told the U.K. Parliament last week that his country would fight Russia’s invasion to the end in Ukraine’s cities. Zelenskyy also was to speak Wednesday to members of the U.S. House and Senate, an event that will be livestreamed for the public.

Why isn’t he asking Soros for help?

Zelenskyy was sitting in a T-shirt, fighting a Russian invasion, and fending off assassination attempts, and every Canadian MP was wearing a damn covid mask!

If only Zelenskyy were a lot less like Castreau.

He could end this today, but he seems to want WW3.

Maybe Trudeau could send some Truckers to drive into Kviv and set up some bouncy houses to distract the Russian troops.

Canada's a dictatorship.

Trudeau's the dick, and Canadians are the taters.

As far as I know the war is over and the Russians lost. Two more weeks max is what I have been told.

But I thought that Zelenskyy was already kicking the Russian’s butt.

Salty Cracker said Zelensky is married to a man. I don’t think he was being sarcastic.

“Canada no longer has a real military.”

Canada has a mediocre guard force that is sprinkled here and there with some of the world’s most outstanding individual troopers.

Sadly, their woke government is working hard to purge these outstanding people from their military. Give it a few more years and your comment will be 100% accurate.

Salty Cracker has a real hate on for the Ukrainians. I’ve noticed he’s also lost some of his longtime supporters in the Rumble super chats.

I get it having an opinion but he’s actually a lot more hateful towards the Ukrainians than literally any of the Russians I’ve heard from or even seen right here on FR. It’s a little much.
