Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said that on Saturday "NORAD confirmed that an unidentified object entered, unlawfully, Canadian airspace. It represented a reasonable threat to civilian aircraft so I gave the order to take it down. Canadian and American fighter jets were scrambled and an American F-22 successfully shot down the object."

Trudeau added that "recovery teams are on the ground looking to find and analyze the object."

Trudeau made the statement on Sunday before embarking on a trip to the Yukon where he will participate in the Council of Yukon First Nations' 50th-anniversary celebration with community leaders.

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

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.”
