You are correct, I was talking about US aid to Argentina, not Canada's aid to Ukraine.

You seemed to understand that much before you broke down in tears.

Are there any family members nearby who can comfort you?

Miraje,
He was talking about Canada's aid to Ukraine, not US aid to Argentina.
And even U.S. aid to Argentina is turning out to be $20B, not the reported $40B ...

US banks shelve $20 billion bailout plan for Argentina, WSJ reports (Yahoo Finance)

This is because the original $40B figure included both Trump's currency swap of $20B plus an estimated $20B of private equity.

However, unlike the bankrupt casino builder, actual bank executives can't tolerate the risk of loaning money to a fiscal basketcase like Argentina. At least not until Milei's libertarian reforms start to bear fruit, which is still a long ways off.
