The Hour of RAGE

NATO leaders have been unwilling to commit to Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's request for a no-fly zone over his embattled country, but is there more the western alliance could be doing to help that doesn't risk open war between nuclear powers? The leaders of NATO countries will be meeting in Brussels next week for a summit to discuss further options, but they're facing increased criticism for not directly intervening against Putin. Professor Bohdan Kordan studies Ukraine at St. Thomas More College, and he joins Gormley to share his thoughts.

A 28-year-old Saskatoon woman is facing a charge of driving while impaired by THC, causing death after allegedly hitting and killing nine-year-old Baeleigh Maurice while the girl was crossing 33rd St. E in September of 2021.

Open Session

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed Canada's parliament yesterday, thanking our nation for the aid and support, but begging for NATO to implement a no-fly zone over Ukraine to put an end to the Russian airstrikes and bombing attacks that have left the country devastated and many dead. While many have been calling for the West to do more to stand up to Putin after his unprovoked attack on Ukraine, a no-fly zone is controversial as it might bring NATO forces into direct combat with Russian troops. This morning we're putting the question to YOU in one of Gormley's patented Reality Checks: Should NATO enforce a no-fly zone over Ukraine? Call 1-877-332-8255 and add your voice to our poll!
