PSAC condemns Russia’s senseless attack on Ukraine and extends its full solidarity to the people of Ukraine.

Canada’s unions, including PSAC, continue to urge the Canadian government to welcome all those fleeing Ukraine and to provide more humanitarian aid to those displaced by the war and those still in Ukraine. The government must take action to ensure refugees can reach Canada quickly and safely.

PSAC members are encouraged to aid victims by donating to the Red Cross’s Humanitarian Crisis Appeal online at www.redcross.ca. 

PSAC also extends its solidarity to the people of Russia openly opposing the war. The Canadian government must work with the international community to do everything possible to de-escalate the crisis and find a peaceful solution.
