The RCMP said that since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February, more than $400 million in assets held by individuals on Canada's sanctions list have been frozen or blocked. "We're still a ways from passing that legislation," the prime minister said on Friday. When pressed about who would spend that money, the prime minister didn't give a clear answer, saying Canada is "a long way from that moment." Trudeau also didn't directly answer whether Canada would deliver the full value of what's been frozen over to reconstruction funds. "As with just so many things in regards to the conflict in Ukraine — nothing about Ukraine, without Ukraine," the prime minister said.
