Prime Minister Mark Carney said the government backs American military action on Saturday to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon and “prevent its regime from further threatening international peace and security.” Under Ayatollah Ali Khamenei — the nation’s supreme leader who U.S. President Donald Trump said had been killed after 37 years in power — Iran has a history…
