Quote: "Canada is continuing to provide Ukraine with the comprehensive military aid it needs to defend its territory and people against ongoing Russian aggression.
Canada has trained 35,000 Ukrainian personnel through Operation UNIFIER, we have donated over $1 billion in military aid, and our Canadian Armed Forces personnel have transported over seven million pounds of Ukraine-bound donations."
For reference: Canada transports military aid from its base in Scotland where three Canadian cargo aircraft and about 60 soldiers are located. They supply military aid to Ukraine from there, provided not just by Canada but other NATO allies as well.
Background: Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada, has declared that Crimea is and always will be Ukrainian, and Canada will continue supporting Ukraine as long as it needs it.
