Mercenaries of the Wagner Group are completing the handover of their weapons to the Russian military, the Defence Ministry said Wednesday, a move that follows the private army's brief rebellion last month that challenged the Kremlin's authority.

The disarming of Wagner reflects efforts by authorities to defuse the threat it posed and also appears to herald an end to the mercenary group's operations on the battlefield in Ukraine.

The Bill Kelly Show Podcast:

It’s great to see the PM getting the message — but Canada is still terribly late to the party. We won’t completely fulfil the Latvian commitment until 2026. This also means that Canada’s peacekeeping efforts in other parts of the world, such as Haiti, will be curtailed. After years of neglect, our military simply doesn’t have the troop strength to support in all the places where it is sorely needed.

So why is Trudeau finally getting Canada’s act together on NATO?
