‘Our friends in France:’ Trudeau says Canada will work to fight terrorism
CALGARY — Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada is thinking of “our friends in France” and will work to fight terrorism.
“We had a terrible attack last night and our hearts go out to the victims and their families,” Trudeau said Friday while in Calgary to attend the Stampede.
“Canada stands with France as a steadfast ally and we will work with the international community to fight terror to ensure that we live in a peaceful world.”
At least 84 people were killed when a truck full of weapons plowed into a crowd of Bastille Day revellers in the French resort city of Nice late Thursday.
