Canada pledges $1.5 billion in military aid to Ukraine, including drones and armored vehicles, to support defense and reconstruction efforts amid ongoing conflict.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney announced in Kyiv on August 24, 2025, a $1.5 billion military package to be transferred in September, with over C$1 billion funding drones, ammunition, and armored vehicles.
- The G7 pledge in June set the stage by framing Canada’s new $2 billion commitment as part of its $22 billion financial assistance to Ukraine, Ottawa said.
- About $570 million will go toward procurement of armoured vehicles and medical supplies, while Canada earmarked $150 million for drones, counter-drone and electronic warfare systems plus $220 million to a joint Ukrainian and Canadian defence industries venture.
- The measures immediately deepen operational cooperation by signing a customs mutual assistance agreement between Canada Border Services Agency and Ukraine, while Carney said he would not rule out sending Canadian troops postwar.
- Carney's visit underscores Canada’s geopolitical stance by solidifying its role in Europe’s defence network and outlining $31 million in humanitarian and reconstruction support in coming years with European partners and NATO.
