This is the best summary I could come up with:
Canada will contribute $33-million to a British-led partnership that is buying air defence equipment for Ukraine to help it fend off Russian missile and drone attacks, Defence Minister Bill Blair said on Sunday.
In a statement, Blair said the contribution was part of the $500-million worth of military aid for Kyiv that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced in June.
Canada, home to one of the world’s largest Ukrainian diasporas, is a vocal supporter of Kyiv.
Since Russia invaded in February 2022, Ottawa has committed over $8-billion in aid, including around $1.8-billion in military assistance.
The partnership, which also includes the United States, the Netherlands and Denmark, aims to buy hundreds of short- and medium-range air defence missiles and associated systems.
