TORONTO — The Turkish government has pulled out of an international military air exercise in Canada to protest Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s characterization of a mass killing of Armenians as a genocide, the Globe and Mail reports.
Officials with the Turkish embassy confirmed Tuesday that a half-dozen Turkish jet fighters and support aircraft, which were supposed to take part in the exercise May 17 to June 24 at Canadian Forces Base Cold Lake in Alberta, have been withdrawn."
