Canada Wildfires: PM Trudeau says military to be sent in to tackle British Columbia's wildfires
Canada will send in armed forces to tackle fast-spreading wildfires in British Columbia, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has said, as more than 35,000 people were put under evacuation orders in the western province.
Trudeau said in a social media post yesterday that the federal government had agreed to send in military assistance after a request from the British Columbian government.
British Columbia had imposed a state of emergency late on Friday, giving officials more power to deal with fire risks.
The main fire was centered around Kelowna, a city 300km east of Vancouver with a population of about 150,000.
Mark Carneyâs recent victory signals a potential thaw in the icy relationship between India and Canada, which had been strained under Justin Trudeauâs leadership. Carney, calling India âincredibly important,â hints at a new era of bilateral relations based on mutual respect. With India identified as a key partner in Carneyâs global trade strategy, experts suggest that talks for a revived India-Canada CEPA could soon resume. This shift also promises faster visa approvals for Indian workers and students, marking a pragmatic approach to foreign policy.

Mark Carney has secured a new term as Prime Minister, leading the Liberal Party to its fourth consecutive victory in the 2025 Canadian federal election. Early projections confirm that the Liberals, under Carneyâs leadership, have outpaced Pierre Poilievreâs Conservatives in a closely fought race shaped by economic concerns and foreign policy tensions, particularly with the United States. Carney, who took over from Justin Trudeau earlier this year, steered the party through a dramatic comeback fueled by a surge in national unity after controversial comments by U.S. President Donald Trump. Voter turnout reached historic levels, with nearly 29 million Canadians eligible to cast ballots.

Trump has announced a 25% tariff increase on Canadian steel and aluminum, escalating trade tensions between Washington and Ottawa. The decision comes just days after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned of potential economic fallout from U.S. trade policies. Trump justified the move by citing the need to protect American industries and jobs, while Canada has strongly condemned the tariffs as "unfair and harmful" to North American trade relations. Experts warn this could lead to retaliatory measures from Canada, further straining economic ties between the two nations.
