Canada has warehouses of weaponry that Ukraine needs. Why aren't we aiding our ally?
Opinion:
Instead of sitting in storage, these weapons could be used by Ukrainians to defend their country from Russia’s military aggression

As a result of his failed leadership and ineffective diplomacy, this plan has fallen through, and these weapons are now collecting dust in warehouses in Montreal and Jordan. Gen. Jonathan Vance, Chief of the Defence Staff for the Canadian Armed Forces, has himself acknowledged the unlikelihood of these arms ever finding their way into Kurdish military service.
Instead of sitting on these weapons, and having them simply take up space in storage facilities, they could be put to use by the Ukrainian Armed Forces, who have repeatedly made requests for these kinds of arms. This will be a real help to our Ukrainian allies as they fight for their liberty and independence.
Ukraine needs the support of such democratic allies as Canada if it is to repel Russian aggression and free Crimea and Donbas from their occupiers. Under prime minister Stephen Harper, Canada took a strong, principled position, and directly told Vladimir Putin to get out of Ukraine. We backed those words with action. That Justin Trudeau refuses to lead and offer real help to Ukraine is nothing short of shameful. Ukraine is a testament to what is achievable through defiance and an undying belief for a better future for their nation. Throughout a long history of severe foreign oppression, war and deliberate famines, Ukrainians have never lost their vision for a unified and peaceful future for their country. Andrew Scheer and Canada’s Conservatives will always support the right of Ukrainians to determine their own future in an independent state, safe from foreign aggression. We will never recognize the illegal annexation of Crimea, and we will always stand with a proud, united and free Ukraine.
