Former London bureau chief for Global news. Ukraine's Ambassador to Canada, Yulia Kovaliv joins us today. Ukraine's military has experienced great success pushing back the Russian army in recent weeks reclaiming thousands of square kilometers. Putin now threatens additional attacks. Does that mean battlefield nukes perhaps? U.S. president Joe Biden yesterday warned Putin "don't, don't, don't." What is the situation on the ground in Ukraine and what does Ukraine need most?  Germany has refused to ship decomissioned Leopard battle tanks to Ukraine and is being criticized for the decision. Yulia Kovaliv. Ukraine Ambassador to Canada. The Ambassador will also share her country's message of condolence to Canada and Canadians on the death of Queen Elizabeth. Canada's justice and correctional system facing criticism. From the Myles Sanderson murders in Saskatchewan and the fact an RCMP apprehension unit wasn't searching for Sanderson who with a long and violent criminal record was unlawfully at large beginning May of this year. - The sister of a murder victim who posted a photograph of the murderer who breached parole on social media was told by Correctional Service Canada to take down the photo. - Eustachio Gallese of Quebec who killed his wife in 2004 by beating her with a hammer before repeatedly stabbing her was sentenced to life in prison. After 15 years the convicted killer was paroled and ordered not to engage in relationships with women, although the board granted Gallese access to sex workers. A 22 year old Quebec City woman paid with her life for that decision as Gallese was charged with her murder. - There's also the issue of statutory release and what that really means. Scott Newark.
