The vehicles are being purchased from Roshel, a company based in Mississauga, Ont., at a cost of $90 million, and represent the latest contribution from Canada in response to Russia's invasion last February.Canada sent eight of the same Roshel-made Senator armoured personnel carriers to Ukraine last spring, and more recently promised to provide an American-made air defence system at a cost of $406 million.
That announcement was met with some questions over why Canada was buying military equipment for Ukraine from the United States, and why a similar system was not being bought for the Canadian military.The latest announcement came during a one-day trip to Ukraine in which Anand met with her Ukrainian counterpart, Oleksii Reznikov. She is also scheduled to attend a U.S.-led meeting on Ukraine in Germany on Friday.
The federal government says Canada has contributed approximately $5 billion in military, financial and humanitarian assistance since Russian forces crossed into Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022.Anand's visit to Ukraine came as officials there said the country's interior minister had died in a helicopter crash near the capital that killed at least another 14 people, including other officials and three children.
Interior Minister Denys Monastyrskyi oversaw Ukraine's police and emergency services. He is the most senior official to die since Russia invaded nearly 11 months ago.This is her first visit to
Serious question, are we at war?
Missile defense systems, armored vehicles, likely tanks upcoming shortly This isn't Ukraine fighting Russia. This is Canadian taxpayers fighting Russia.
Can't we send more hashtags and sanctions? They seem to be far cheaper.
So we are contributing to WW3?!? I didn’t vote for this. We are just sending metal coffins let’s face it. Time to start talking about peace was a year ago. It’s overdue..
To be blown up by Russia on arrival ! I suppose you don’t watch the clips of nato gears being destroyed daily?
Trudo is giving away all our Army military equipment so Canadian Forces become irrelevant…I hope our guys have enough decks of cards to pass times! Trudo must go!
Liberals are supplying Nazis.
I assume that Ukraine knew she was coming, unlike SK and Trudeau.
Does Zelenskyy know when he loses the WarhammerCommunity against Russia he will have to make Reparations to them and repay all those countries he borrowed from.
Sure why not? Canada will never recover from the Trudeau regimes crippling generational $trillion debt anyways. If he's going to take us down it might as well be monumental
That is a big contribution. European nations (UK, Poland, and one or two others excepted) should take note.

We really need to have an election...
