Canada will 'never participate' in Iran offensive, Carney says

Prime Minister Carney emphasized Canada will avoid military involvement despite earlier ambiguous remarks, affirming support for preventing Iran's nuclear program, officials said.

  • Tuesday, Prime Minister Carney told MPs that Canada is not participating in the U.S.-Israeli offensive and will never participate in it.
  • After criticism, Carney changed his schedule to attend Tuesday's question period after missing Monday's session for a community Iftar, prompting opposition calls for clarity.
  • During question period, Carney acknowledged contested remarks, saying he supported the strikes with regret and faced few questions, amid disruptions.
  • Gérard Deltell asked, 'In Quebec and across Canada, people are wondering where the prime minister is. Where is the prime minister in this debate? Where is the prime minister in this arena that we call the House of Commons?' and Normandin cited a pattern of disinterest throughout Carney's first year in office.
  • Carney emphasized diplomatic coordination with G7 leaders, including U.S. President Donald Trump, and a PMO readout said his call with French President Emmanuel Macron focused on secure access through the Strait of Hormuz and rising energy prices.
