Canada said on Tuesday, it was imposing sanctions on 14 individuals in the Russian government, including President Vladimir Putin’s two adult daughters, according to a statement from the foreign ministry.

Canada’s minister of foreign affairs, Mélanie Joly said in a statement that, “We will continue to impose severe costs on the Russian regime in coordination with our allies and will relentlessly pursue accountability for their actions.
“They will answer for their crimes.”

Earlier this month, the United States and Britain both announced sanctions against Putin’s daughters, Katerina Vladimirovna Tikhonova and Maria Vladimirovna Vorontsova because they said they are believed to be hiding the Putin’s wealth.
