U.S. "Coordinating Very Closely" with Canada After Attacks 
-----------------------------------------------------------


 
On Thursday, White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest said the Obama
administration is working closely with Canada in the wake of the
attacks.

Josh Earnest: "President Obama yesterday offered Canada any assistance
that's necessary in responding to these attacks, and our respective
national security teams are coordinating very closely, including again
today. As the president said yesterday, when it comes to dealing with
terrorist activity, it is clear that Canada and the United States have
to be entirely in sync. We have been in the past, and we will continue
to be in the future."

The shooting in Canada came one day after six Canadian fighter jets
departed to join the U.S.-led war against the Islamic State in Iraq.
