"OTTAWA—The federal government has decided to opt out of the controversial U.S.-led missile defence plan, sources say.

Prime Minister Paul Martin was expected to formally announce Canada's position this week — possibly as early as tomorrow in the Commons — although that plan was up in the air last night.

The deciding factor, sources say, is the Liberal convention in early March, where Martin was expected to face heated questions from within the party that opposed Canada's involvement in the missile defence program."
