Canada is on the cusp of finalizing a defence co-operation agreement with Ukraine, and the country's ambassador tells CBC News he's hopeful the Trudeau government will soon allow Canadian companies to export weapons to the embattled nation...

The defence co-operation deal would allow for more direct Canadian military and defence industrial support for Ukraine.
