Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a third set of severe sanctions against Russia and its president on Friday.
"We will be imposing sanctions on President Putin and his fellow architects of this barbaric war, his chief of staff, and foreign minister," said Trudeau. "I am confirming Canada's support to remove Russia from the SWIFT payment system, a critical part of the global banking system."
Trudeau also said the federal government will match donations, up to $10 million, to the Canadian Red Cross' Ukraine Humanitarian Crisis Appeal.
