Canada discusses joining US Golden Dome missile defence programme
PM Mark Carney's office says there are "active discussions" on the Golden Dome, but it's too early to say how Canada would join or pay in.

Trump said the proposed Golden Dome is meant to target increasingly sophisticated aerial weapons, including hypersonic missiles, and will include space-based sensors and interceptors.
He said the system would be "capable even of intercepting missiles launched from the other side of the world, or launched from space".
It is partly inspired by Israel's Iron Dome, which the country has used to intercept rockets and missiles since 2011.
