Draft genome sequences of clinical <i>Mycobacterium canettii</i> strains in Canada
<i>Mycobacterium canettii</i> is a rare pathogen causing tuberculosis in humans and presents a risk to public health. Here, we report the genome sequences of two <i>M. canettii</i> strains. The genomes will assist in creating sequence-based tools for <i>M. canettii</i> and serve as references for identification, surveillance, and epidemiological investigations.
