Canada Cancels Ukraine Military Contract

After the Canadian government cancelled a military contract with Ukraine, pressure is growing to explain the decision.

The contract, which involved refurbishing 25 light armoured vehicles, was cancelled by the federal government, but the reason behind the decision has not been disclosed.

Conservatives say the contract's cancellation risks making Canada appear as an unreliable ally to Ukraine and undermines commitments to bolstering the domestic defence industry.

Defence Minister David McGuinty informed the House of Commons defence committee about the cancellation, but stated that he couldn’t explain the reason behind the decision.
