On February 24, 2022, the Government of Canada published Canada’s response to the crisis in Ukraine and advised to avoid all travel. Canadians living in Ukraine should shelter in place unless they can leave the country safely. Those who need consular assistance have to contact the Emergency Watch and Response Centre (EWRC) for 24/7 emergency consular assistance. Canadian permanent residents who don’t have a valid PR card can apply for a permanent resident travel document to travel back to Canada.
