Canada tells diplomats to avoid photos with U.S. candidates before midterms

Global Affairs Canada has told diplomats to avoid being photographed in the same space as U.S. candidates or elected officials before the Nov. 3 midterm elections. The memo also says their names should stay out of public materials. Senior official Glen Linder sent it. Spokesperson John Babcock said limiting public events during host-country election periods is standard practice.
