© Ryan Remiorz/The Canadian Press Canada sent four M777 155-millimetre howitzers to Ukraine earlier this year. The barrels on modern artillery guns — such as the M-777 howitzers Canada sent to Ukraine — have to be replaced after firing up to 2,500 rounds. Defence Minister Anita Anand announced the donation of 10 new barrels to Ukraine during a meeting with NATO allies in Brussels. An additional $127 million in military aid to Ukraine was spent before the fiscal plan was released in early April. "There is a continued need to provide equipment and military aid to Ukraine, and governments across this world only have so much inventory," she said.
