Canada’s military is examining scenarios for an unlikely invasion by the United States, Prime Minister Mark Carney has said.
Carney confirmed that the armed forces are running through possible situations involving a US attack on Canada. His comments presented the prospect as a long shot rather than an expected development.
The preparation reflects military planning for a scenario that the prime minister considers highly improbable. No further details about the scenarios or the nature of the planning were provided in the supplied material.
For now, Canada’s military is continuing to assess the hypothetical situation, while the government maintains that a US invasion is unlikely.
