Toronto police search for two suspects after shots fired at U.S. consulate

Two suspects pulled up in a white Honda CR-V and opened fire in front of the U.S. consulate in Toronto before fleeing, according to Toronto police. Authorities say security will be increased at embassies and consulates in Toronto and Ottawa; immediate market impact is minimal but expect localized travel and diplomatic disruptions and short-term risk-off sentiment—monitor for escalation that could broaden geopolitical or operational effects.
