I think it ultimately comes down to whether we can deliver all the Sprint Backlog items or not. If we realize we can't, then cancelling might be the best option.

That could be a reason too, if the process is not being followed correctly, it might make sense to cancel the Sprint.

But what if the Scrum Master realizes that the framework is not being followed entirely?

I agree with Ressie. If the Sprint Backlog items are no longer the highest priority, it makes sense to cancel.

I would add that a Sprint could also be cancelled if the Scrum Master sees the framework isn't being followed entirely.

I think it's also when the Product Owner determines it makes no sense to finish the Sprint.

I agree with both of you. It's important to cancel a Sprint if we can't achieve the goals.
