OTTAWA Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is urging immediate negotiations to prevent a wider Middle East war following the overnight attack by American B-2 bombers on Iran.
Canada calls on parties to return immediately to the negotiating table and reach a diplomatic solution to end this crisis, Carney said Sunday on X,shortly before boarding his Royal Canadian Air Force jetliner to Brussels for a European Union summit. As G7 leaders agreed in Kananaskis, the resolution of the Iranian crisis should lead to a broader de-escalation of hostilities in the Middle East, including a ceasefire in Gaza.
U.S. President Donald Trumps deliberations about possible airstrikes on Iran surfaced at the G7 summit in Kananskis, Alberta last week, when he departed a day early and warned on Truth Social that Iranian civilians should immediately evacuate Tehran.
Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand issued a statement on X echoing Carneys call for diplomacy.

We urge parties to return to the negotiating table and reach a resolution to this crisis.

Iran would be fools to negotiate a sandwich order, much less a peace deal with Il Douche, Little Marco, The Drunk, and the rest of the merry band of cyphers
