Mark Carney announced approximately $900 million in new military support for Ukraine at the NATO summit on July 7.According to the Prime Minister's Office, the package includes:• $475 million for ammunition• Approximately $400 million for 35 Canadian-made armoured vehicles• $50 million for "critical technology"But the numbers add up to $925 million.The government never specified the currency. The written PMO readout doesn't match the remarks made at the podium regarding air defence. And Canada's Department of Finance has previously redacted details of federal aid to Ukraine.In this episode, I break down the math, examine the inconsistencies, and explain what a real paper trail for nearly a billion dollars of public spending should look like.Sources• PMO breakdown (via Kyiv Independent)https://kyivindependent.com/canada-pledges-900-million-to-ukraine-for-vehicles-and-ammo-but-no-air-defense/• Epoch Times ($475M / $400M / $50M breakdown; $2.8B 2026 commitment)https://www.theepochtimes.com/world/canada-to-provide-ukraine-900m-for-ammo-armoured-vehicles-carney-6058644• Ukrainska Pravda (currency unspecified)https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2026/07/07/8042849/• Kyiv Post (podium remarks on air defence)https://www.kyivpost.com/post/79782• Euromaidan Presshttps://euromaidanpress.com/2026/07/07/canada-announces-900-million-military-aid-package/• Juno News ($25.5B total aid; Department of Finance redactions)https://www.junonews.com/p/pm-carney-pledges-900m-aid-package• LIGA.net ("over $925 million"; Development Support Recovery Bank)https://news.liga.net/en/war/news/official-canada-has-announced-a-new-aid-package-for-ukraine-worth-over-900-millionChapters
