‘Terror attack from Pak soil will be act of war’: Defence minister Rajnath warns
Ottawa is witnessing a discussion over Prime Minister Mark Carney's recent comments to the New York Times about Canada's potential examination of U.S. military action in the country. Defence Minister David McGuinty is downplaying the significance of Carney's remarks, stating that all militaries analyze such risks and it is not unusual for a government to prepare for extreme tail risk.
However, McGuinty insists the government will not disclose the details of such an analysis. Conservative MP Ellis Ross criticized Carney's comments as irresponsible and potentially stoking fear and division.
