US jet shoots down ‘unidentified object’ over northern Canada,
Trudeau says
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Saturday that an “unidentified object” had been shot down over Canadian airspace on his orders.“I ordered the take down of an unidentified object that violated Canadian airspace. @NORADCommand shot down the object over the Yukon.
Canadian and U.S. aircraft were scrambled, and a U.S. F-22 successfully fired at the object,” Trudeau said on Twitter.
Trudeau said that he spoke with US President Biden on Saturday and that Canadian forces will lead the object recovery operation.
Canadian Defense Minister Anita Anand tweeted Saturday that she had discussed the incident with US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin “and reaffirmed that we’ll always defend our sovereignty together.”

I’m happy to know that my Prime Minister acted quickly, and I’m pleased to know that he and President Biden are on the same page in regards to national security.
