Canada considers increasing military aid to Ukraine

[TR_123456]

Newly appointed Defense Minister of Canada Anita Anand is considering deploying hundreds of additional troops to support the Canadian soldiers already in Ukraine on a training mission and moving a warship into the Black Sea, or redeploying some of the CF-18 fighter jets currently based in Romania.

Ukrinform reports this with reference to The Globe and Mail.
It is noted that no decision has yet been made about deploying additional forces in Ukraine.
“It’s still status quo, as of now. There’s been no change in our posture,” Lieutenant-Commander Julie McDonald, a spokeswoman for the Canadian military, said on Wednesday. “We’re closely monitoring the situation along with our allied partners.”
Canada currently has some 200 troops based in Ukraine that train their Ukrainian counterparts.
As reported, Russia amassed about 94,000 troops, 1,200 tanks, 330 military aircraft and other equipment along the border with Ukraine, which is considered as preparations for large-scale aggression against Ukraine.

Canada cannot even remotely attend to our own national disasters (BC Floods) let alone more troops for Ukraine. Seriously, another "ship" for the Black Sea and more aging CF 18 Hornets for Romania? Let's face facts. Our military is "broken" and "under-funded by the Liberal government (by design). A "no decision" is simply the government trying to delay, delay, delay......again!

''Considering'' doesnt mean anything,looks like a message to Russia.

''Considering'' doesnt mean anything,looks like a message to Russia.

Russia must be "snickering" to themselves thinking that whatever Canada says or "considers" will have any impact at all by Putin WRT Ukraine. However NATO may have to decide soon to "sink or swim" and the US will have to decide what action or response will be enough to make Russia back off as well. Delaying is simply an oft used Canadian tactic that has no impact and never will.

Its a message from a NATO member,not enough for Putin?
I think its a form of Geopolitics.
