Trudeau set to reveal details of anti-ISIS mission

Ministers of National Defence, Global Affairs and International Development to attend

OTTAWA: -- As Justin Trudeau prepares to reveal his plan to change Canada's role in the fight against ISIS, he's hoping Canadians will focus on more than just fighter jets.


On Monday morning at 10:30 ET Trudeau will be joined in Ottawa by the ministers of National Defence, Global Affairs and International Development to reveal the new strategy. That invite list indicates Trudeau will roll out plans to beef up Canada's contribution to humanitarian and international development efforts too.

There's been no sign, however, that the Prime Minister will back down from his campaign pledge to pull Canada's six CF-18 fighter jets from the American-led coalition bombing efforts against ISIS. Instead, he says, Canada will find ways to contribute more effectively, even suggesting Canada is doing "more than its part" in the war against ISIS.
