A two-week ceasefire involving Iran was welcomed by Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney as a positive development; Canada will work with allies to help restore shipping traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. Carney emphasized any ceasefire or peace plan must also include Lebanon. Short-term regional risk to energy shipments and logistics could ease modestly, but the temporary duration and unresolved broader issues leave significant uncertainty.
