I'm sorry, I just have to laugh at this story.
If it's anything like Canada's fleet of surplus British submarines that all need extensive repairs before Canada even has an operable submersible fleet, the Sudanese rebels won't have anything to worry about.
Canada will lend the African Union mission in Sudan 105 surplus armoured vehicles for one year to help in their efforts to restore peace in the wartorn Darfur region, officials announced Thursday.
A team of 80 military personnel will also travel to Senegal next month to train AU soldiers in their use and maintenance.
The 100 Grizzly and five Husky armoured vehicles will be ready to be deployed by mid-September and used by AU troops from Nigeria, Rwanda and Senegal.
"This armoured vehicle loan is an important part of Canadas assistance to the African Union Mission in Sudan," said Defence Minister Bill Graham. "It will provide the AU with some of the key tools they need to safely and effectively conduct peace support operations in the troubled Darfur region."
