Russian aircraft operators have been barred from entering Canadian airspace.
Omar Alghabra, Federal Minister of Transport, made the announcement Sunday morning.
Effective immediately, Canada’s airspace is closed to all Russian aircraft operators. We will hold Russia accountable for its unprovoked attacks against Ukraine.

It’s among the continued sanctions our country has levied against Russia in retaliation for the invasion of Ukraine.
