We aren't sending more equipment because we don't have more. Canada's Army (and Navy, and Airforce) is destitute, and we had to scrape the barrel to find the equipment we did send. We do help with more than just equipment though - we have an ongoing mission training Ukrainian soldiers that has been operating since 2015.
