Canada stops arms shipments to Israel

Israel has historically been a top receiver of Canadian arms exports, with CAN$21 million worth of military materiel exported to Israel in 2022, according to Radio Canada, following CAN$26 million in shipments in 2021. That places Israel among the top 10 recipients of Canadian arms exports.

Send them to Ukraine instead.

To the best of my knowledge Canada has been a steadfast ally to the Ukrainians. In February they announced additional support in 2024, including just over 3 billion in military and economic assistance among many other smaller initiatives. This story also says Canada is willing to participate in an ammunition bulk-buy being quarterbacked by the Czechs that may see about 800,000 artillery rounds sourced and delivered to Ukraine.
