Canada promised to deliver a $400M air defence system to Ukraine a year ago. It still hasn’t arrived

A $400-million air defence system promised almost a year ago by Canada to Ukraine has yet to be delivered as plans are still being developed.

The Liberal government announced with great fanfare on Jan. 10, 2023 that it was acquiring the advanced air defence system and associated munitions for Ukraine at a cost of $406 million.

But the National Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System, or NASAMS, hasn’t been delivered, and plans are still being worked out, National Defence confirmed to this newspaper.

Is there no low the Liberals cannot sink to?
