This book looks to answer the question of how an increasingly divided country, Canada, engages a world that is itself divided. As Canada experiences increasing political and ideological divisions, this political instability and international uncertainty will in turn significantly affect Canada’s domestic situation and its ability to engage as an effective global actor. Contributors explore issues that cause or reflect this tension, such as energy and climate change, military action abroad versus commitments to North American security including NORAD, The Arctic, and continental defense, international engagement by firms seeking new markets and risking damage to Canada’s brand through corrupt practices, and middle-power leadership at the United Nations versus ad hoc collations of the willing and like-minded states.weiterlesen
