On this episode of Global National: People living in eastern Ukraine are running out of time to escape the wrath of Russian forces – and running out of places to bury loved ones. Crystal Goomansingh reports on the warnings the war will worsen and which countries have no problem continuing doing business with Russia.

As the U.S. sanctions Russian President Vladimir Putin's daughters, Western allies are also being criticized for putting business needs ahead of human lives. Jackson Proskow explains how much money has been spent on Russian oil and gas since this war started and the questions about whether Putin will retaliate against the sanctions.

Meanwhile, in Canada, Ottawa has approved Equinor's Bay du Nord oil project off the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador, an undertaking that could produce 200,000 barrels of oil a day. Mercedes Stephenson explains how the controversial project clashes with the government's climate goals and what it's expected to announce in the 2022 federal budget.

Canada's sixth COVID-19 wave is also underway, as infections and hospitalizations creep up. Eric Sorensen looks at how different provinces have different strategies on dealing with the new uptick, what Ontario's wastewater is revealing and the urgent advice about vaccine doses.

And as Ukrainian refugees displaced by war make their way to Canada, the federal government still has its commitment of settling 40,000 Afghan refugees. So far, only 10,000 have been resettled. David Akin explains the concerns Canada can't keep up with two refugee crises.

Plus, Mattea Roach, a 23-year-old woman from Nova Scotia, has earned serious bragging rights after becoming the latest champion on "Jeopardy!" As Mike Drolet explains, Roach has also won some priceless hometown pride.
