Prime Minister Justin Trudeau issued a statement on twitter shortly before 9 a.m expressing Canada’s full support of the United States’ action in Syria.

U.S. warships launched 59 Tomahawk cruise missiles at a Syrian airfield at 8:40 p.m. EDT Thursday night in response to Tuesday’s chemical weapons attack.

According to a Tweet from Press Secretary Cameron Ahmad, Trudeau is planning on making an additional statement in house today.

More to come.
