> Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said authorities had spent the past year preparing for the possibility of a US military invasion. He described the effort as management of an extreme tail risk rather than a base case. Carney also said Canada would diversify away from Starlink for military satellite communications by working with European countries and South Korea.
