And as Redmond Shannon reports, it comes as Ukraine tries to shore up more international support against Russia’s full-scale invasion.
Meanwhile in the U.S., a battle is being waged over abortion rights in Texas. A judge has ruled the state’s abortion ban is too restrictive for women with serious pregnancy complications.

It’s still summer, but political pundits are already looking ahead to the fall, when the country’s next provincial election will take place.

Most people alive today experienced the Second World War through old photos and films, but it’s hard to grasp the true sense of the times unless you’ve lived them.

Brody Ratcliffe explains.
