  1. Wow not enough???? Canadians cannot even afford grocery. This is a never ending war like Afganishtan. Somebody is making money on war. Taxpayers suffers.

    1. My wife and I are a retired household living on a very modest, fixed income, but we are managing fine in this time of increased inflation. Cutting back on luxury, nice to have things, and shopping within our budget. Still absolutely behind supporting Ukraine, as they are struggling for their very existence as a sovereign nation, and society.
      This is also a defensive action to discourage any other autocratic, authoritative military leaders of the world from thinking that the civilized world will just allow them to run around with their military forces, and annexing foreign, sovereign territory. Basically armed robbery.

  2. Meanwhile – “The funding shortfall is estimated at $792.3 billion for the CPP, $494.4 billion for OAS, and $894.7 billion for medicare. Together the unfunded liabilities in Canada’s public pensions and health care programs total $2.2 trillion or $134,841 for each income taxpayer”

  3. I bet zelinkys wife is pissed with the riots in paris. Cant go clothes shopping.

  4. Uh. How about nothing. That’s what I would pledge and I’m a veteran Canadian with grand parents in world war records. I don’t think we should be there or issue any involvement. Not our beef

  5. 39M not enough how about we give them nothing instead and help all the Canadians in our own country that are suffering

  6. This is not our war, we can help some but we do not have a bottomless money pit no matter how much our dimwitted leader thinks HE has. We have many problems here at home to be dealt with like another big raise for our politicians, bigger expense accounts, long vacations while nothing is being done to help Canadians.
