‘He’s Our Hero’: Ukrainian Canadians Hopeful as Zelenskyy Joins G7 Summit

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Kananaskis, Alberta, on June 17, 2025, to attend the G7 Summit hosted by Canada.
Zelensky's visit follows ongoing conflict since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, amid intensified drone and missile attacks on Ukrainian cities.
At the summit, Zelensky planned to urge G7 leaders for more military support and sanctions against Russia, though his scheduled meeting with Trump was uncertain due to Trump's early departure over Middle East tensions.
Canada pledged $4.3 billion in support for Ukraine and announced new sanctions on Russia's energy and shipping sectors, with Prime Minister Mark Carney emphasizing unwavering backing for Ukrainian peace.
Meanwhile, Ukrainian Canadians like Olha Kulybanych express hope seeing Zelensky nearby, voicing needs for stronger defense systems and sustained international pressure to protect Ukraine and achieve peace.
