This is a good question that focuses on work that has been ongoing in the Government of Canada since 2015 with Operation Unifier, whereby members of the Canadian Armed Forces have trained approximately 47,000 members of the Ukrainian armed forces. That is part of the work we're doing.
Layer on top of that the work over the past four and a half years, since the illegal and unjustifiable further invasion of Ukraine by Russia, during which we've put forward approximately $25.5 billion in multiple forms of aid. That would be financial, economic and military aid, for example.
On top of that, we are also working with civil society and countries around the world relating to the return of Ukrainian children. We are the co-hosts of that effort internationally. I've just, in the recent past, returned from Brussels, where we had a very large gathering of countries supporting the return of Ukrainian children who have been indoctrinated, kidnapped and taken by Russia during the war.
There's more work to be done to bring Ukrainian children home to their families. We will be hosting another such summit here in Canada, in Toronto, on September 29 and 30. We very much hope that members of our government and beyond will be able to attend. It is extremely important, not just for Ukrainians but for the principle of democracy writ large.
I'd like to thank MP James Bezan from the Conservative caucus, in fact, with whom we have been working over the past number of years to ensure that there is a unified message going forward for Ukrainians in Canada.
