BANGKOK – Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says Canada’s coming Indo-Pacific strategy will include new investments to strengthen the Canadian Armed Forces’ engagement in the region.

He made the announcement as he wrapped up his participation in the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Thailand, which was sidetracked after North Korea launched a ballistic missile that landed near Japanese waters.

More coming.
