Canada will be keeping 2/3 of all the millions of drones produced every year for their own armed forces.

That means they're trying to protect the country from attacks at the North Pole by Russia, and also from south of the border by America.

And yes I know it's highly unliky that America or Russia will ever attack us, but at the end of the day you never know.

Better to be safe than to be sorry.

Smart move by Carney 👍

Smart move by Trudeau and then Carney to give billions away
to Ukraine to defend us from future attacks by Russia. So long
as we keep up with sending aid to Ukraine Russia would never
ever launch an invasion into Canada from the North.

So it seems our economy is running great and not affected by "trade war" with the US...

Do you have any idea how much mineral resources we can mine up anytime we choose? We have btw 450 BILLION US treasuries.

Seriously man.
It is not just Ukraine. Many mineral-rich countries in the world hold
substantial gold reserves in their central banks.

Do you think Bank of Canada could just confiscate properties of
gold miners in the country to back up our currency at some point.

Yes. They can in fact. The emergencies act could do just that. But we wouldn't have to. We have a AAA rating, and our massive resources, copper, nickel, rare earth's, oil, gas etc would carry us.

Btw, no nation carries anything close to the value of their currency in gold. The total volume is a rounding error at this point in the world economy.

what a joke. Bunch of grandstandng and tossing red meat to the Ukrainian crowd here in Canada.

Canada's plan to donate refurbished armour to Ukraine is still spinning its wheels (https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/armatec-canadian-forces-dnd-ukraine-1.7323330)

Canada's plan to donate refurbished armour to Ukraine appears to be on the scrap heap (https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/ukraine-light-armoured-vehicles-lav-9.6938382)

Canada cancels plan to donate refurbished armour to Ukraine: defence minister (https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-ukraine-light-armoured-vehicles-9.6947629)

let's see if they get through the bureaucratic nonsense with this wasteful new plan.

Wow guess Canadians will be working for Zelensky for a few minutes every week for the rest of their lives. I guess we are probably gonna be joining the EU.
Great news! Fuck Putin!


Do you think money will ever flow from Ukraine to Canada in our lifetimes?
Is any money going to flow from Russia AKA Putin, into your pocket? Just asking for a Ukrainian bud.

It is enjoyable to see all the Comrades in a tizzy over this.

You could say the same of any other foreign aid.

When Canada gives money to African countries, do you think we'll ever see any of that money flow back??
We Canadians are the good guys. I am fine with our leaders indulging
in virtue signalling; But only up to certain point. I will love it had Ukraine
received no more free money from us than some other poor African
countries.
