Clinton was a keynote speaker at the partys biennial convention in Ottawa Friday night and said western government should continue supporting Ukraine in anyway possible.

Ukraines fight for freedom and against Russian aggression is our fight. It is not just their fight, she said. The best way to end Putins aggression is for Ukraine to win.

Clinton said she worked with former Russian president Dmitry Medvedev during her time as secretary of state and said Medvedev was open to economic innovation. But she said Putin, who was pulling the strings at the time, didnt want that kind of openness.

If youre going to encourage people to be free thinking in business. Whoa, thats a threat to the state, eventually.

She said a win against Putin in Ukraine will also cool Chinas ambitions to potentially invade Taiwan.

She said Ukrainians should be the only ones who decide when the war ends and they should have the wests support until then.

I want you to understand youre dealing with someone who is not only narcissistic and megalomaniacal, but totally untrustworthy, she said. We have to continue to provide as much military support to Ukraine.

Clinton also turned to Canadas domestic politics and applauded the Liberal governments child care plan.

Its important in todays political world to get out there and make sure people know what youve done. $10 a day for childcare thats extraordinary, she said. The idea of a feminist set of policies of feminist economic policy is exactly where you need to be if you want to increase economic opportunity and economic output.
