Speakers:
Some Canadian pundits argue that structural trends in the United States’ domestic politics, which in turn influence US foreign policy, create disproportionate risks for Canada. They suggest that Ottawa needs to be more deliberate about its relationship with Washington to avoid being left out in the cold. However, for a quarter century, Canadian politicians have gone against US policy on irregular migration, trade, Arctic security, North Atlantic Treaty Organization posture, and more. Can the United States still rely on Canada as a full partner in shaping the twenty-first century?
Join Senior Fellow Matt Boyse for a conversation with Distinguished Professor Christian Leuprecht of the Royal Military College of Canada, Queen’s University, and the Macdonald-Laurier Institute. They will take stock of the US-Canada relationship and evaluate its implications for security and prosperity in North America, the Euro-Atlantic, and the Indo-Pacific.
