The federal government of Canada is currently negotiating with local authorities to purchase prohibited weapons from private owners.
The Canadian government is discussing with Ukraine the possibility of sending some of the banned firearms. The AP reported it.
As you know, Canada’s Minister of Public Safety Dominic LeBlanc announced the ban on 324 more firearms, continuing the ban on 1,500 makes and models of firearms in May 2020.
“This means these weapons are no longer usable,” LeBlanc said, adding that they belong on the battlefield, not in the hands of hunters or sport shooters.
Canada’s list of banned firearms has been expanded amid public concern that the initial ban did not take into account many assault weapons.
According to Canadian Defense Minister Bill Blair, Ottawa approached the Ukrainian authorities, who expressed interest in some of the weapons.

We remind you that Ukraine received winter uniforms for the Armed Forces of Ukraine from Canada. About 200 pallets of winter equipment were delivered to the Ukrainian military. We are talking about sleeping bags, thermal underwear, boots and socks.
Earlier, the Canadian Parliament adopted a resolution calling on the government to step up support for Ukraine in its defense against Russian aggression.
