Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is expected to deliver a statement on Sunday.

Canada’s Defence Minister Anita Anand said on Saturday that “it’s far too early” to say whether an “unidentified object” shot down over Yukon came from China.

Trudeau announced on Saturday afternoon he had ordered the object shot down after it violated Canadian airspace.

That followed confirmation from the North American Aerospace Defense Command of an exclusive Global News report published at 3:36 p.m. Eastern Time that officials with the continental defence alliance were monitoring an object that could be another potential spy balloon.

Anand noted the object is “potentially similar to the one that was shot down off the coast of North Carolina though smaller in size and cylindrical in nature.”
