Contributing to war and peace: Canada’s role in Ukraine explained

Canada ranks fifth globally in financial support to Ukraine, contributing over $22 billion in military aid, humanitarian relief, and diplomatic efforts to counter Russian aggression.

  • In 2014, Russia entered Ukraine, seized control of Crimea, and engaged in conflicts over other regions for several years before initiating a large-scale invasion in February 2022.
  • The conflict began following Ukraine’s 2014 popular movement to overthrow a president supported by Russia, alongside Kyiv’s efforts to strengthen ties with the European Union despite opposition from Moscow.
  • Canada has been part of multinational efforts including ongoing training missions since 2015, participation in the Coalition of the Willing peacekeeping talks, and humanitarian aid including resettling abducted children and removing landmines.
  • Canada has committed up to $22 billion in combined military, humanitarian, and financial aid, ranking fifth in raw dollar contributions globally, while experts say Canada’s military support is limited by resources.
  • The ongoing war and diplomacy remain fluid with no ceasefire agreed, and analysts warn victory for Ukraine could severely weaken Russia’s neo-imperialism and reduce threats including potential Arctic territorial ambitions.
