Canada ‘to look after itself,’ leader says, as US intelligence allies closely watch war plans leak fallout
CNN
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada must “look out for (itself)” after the Atlantic reported top US officials sent detailed operational plans and other likely classified information about US military strikes on Yemen on a messaging app which mistakenly included a journalist.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada must “look out for (itself)” as the fallout over top US officials sharing military operation details inside a popular messaging app reverberates among key intelligence allies and partners. “It’s a serious, serious issue and all lessons must be taken from any of those, including in this circumstance,” Carney told reporters on a campaign trail stop in Halifax, Nova Scotia Tuesday ahead of the country’s April 28 election. Canada has long been one of the US’s closest allies, though the relationship has deteriorated in recent months since President Donald Trump threatened to enact sweeping tariffs on Canadian goods and annex the country as the “51st state.” “We have a very strong intelligence partnership with the Americans through Five Eyes,” Carney said, referring to the intelligence-sharing alliance between Canada, the US, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand. “Mistakes do happen, but what’s important is how people react to those mistakes and how they tighten them up,” Carney said. Carney said the likely leak of sensitive military plans by senior US officials means Canadians must “look out for ourselves.”
