According to Defence Minister Anita Anand, Canada has also deployed three simulators to help train Ukrainian tank crews and improve their skills.

Anita Anand added that Canada will continue its comprehensive support to Ukraine.

Incidentally, Canada originally planned to send only 4 Leopard 2A4 tanks to Ukraine, but later decided to double their number. As of today all 8 tanks have arrived in Poland.
