Boots on the Ground? Canada Suggests Joining ‘Coalition of the Willing’ in Ukraine
Breitbart ^ | 03/06/2025 | Frances Martel

Canadian Defense Minister Bill Blair said on Wednesday that Canada is open to sending troops to a “coalition of the willing” to protect Ukraine from Russian invasion.

The remarks followed assurances from radical leftist Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that “everything is on the table” regarding Canadian sacrifices to help protect Ukraine. Trudeau’s government has been among the world’s most vocal opposing Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine that began in 2022 and has regularly engaged Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to support the war effort.

It also followed calls by European leaders to strengthen their support of Ukraine, which has not outpaced their purchases of Russian fossil fuels, following a very public disagreement between Zelensky and President Donald Trump in the White House last week. The leaders of Britain and France, in particular, have proposed the establishment of a “coalition of the willing” of peacekeepers stations in Ukraine to discourage Russia from further violating the sovereignty of that country.

They all want war because they are greedy toddlers. The money needs to stop immediately.

It should be called the “Coalition of the World War 3ers.”

This is play acting. A fantasy. Europe and Canada can put “boots on the ground” but as soon as they are shot at, they have zero ability to effectively wage war against Russia.

War mongering idiots.


You are referring to the Russians who began the war in 2014? The same Russians whose leader makes no bones about restoring his country’s borders to pre-1991?

Sending their people to a meat grinder rather than working towards peace. If I was a Canadian, I’d be pissed at the way this guy talks. He should be the first to go.
