Canada to withdraw from anti-ISIL bombing coalition

A date has not yet been set, but Canada was not invited to a meeting Wednesday of defense ministers of several countries that was convened to discuss tactics for 2016 in the war against ISIL.

Conservative leader Rona Ambrose said the exclusion was proof that “when you are not a full partner, you don’t get invited to the table”.

Canadian Defense Minister Harjit Sajjan said the non-invitation meant nothing because these meetings happen “all the time”.
