Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada is going to impose sanctions on 160 members of the Russian Federation Council.
That brings the total number of sanctioned people with links to President Vladimir Putin to 964.
Trudeau says Canada is going to increase its defence spending, but at a news conference in Brussels following NATO and G-7 leaders' meetings he wouldn't be pinned down on specifics.
NATO's secretary-general says leaders have agreed to present plans by June on investing billions of additional dollars into their respective militaries.
