Fearing a Russian invasion is imminent, the U.S. is the latest country to tell its citizens to leave Ukraine. Canada has already done so, but Global Affairs says nearly 800 registered Canadians are still there.

Canada’s diplomatic staff has been relocated to a temporary office in Lviv, Ukraine after operations at the Canadian embassy in Kyiv were suspended, according to Minister of Foreign Affairs Mélanie Joly.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau offered support to Ukraine’s president in a phone call today, but as Jennifer Johnson reports, some are urging him to do more.
