Canada’s Prime Minister Mark Carney has called off his scheduled appearance at the Munich Security Conference in light of Tuesday’s mass shooting in a remote western Canadian community, his office confirmed.
“Following the tragic news out of Tumbler Ridge, British Columbia, the Prime Minister will be… suspending his planned travel out of the country for the time being,” the prime minister’s office told AFP.
Carney had previously announced plans to be in Munich from Wednesday to Sunday.
Nine people were killed in the British Columbia shooting, including seven who were shot at a school.
