"A hard hitting look at Canadian security post-9/11, from the Afghanistan war to US relations and Arctic sovereignty"--Cover.
Canada's role in the international community has transformed dramatically since the events of September 11, 2001. Where Canadians may once have thought of themselves as a "moral super-power" on the world stage, the past decade has witnessed new alliances and new global regions of conflict. Canada has emerged with a very different foreign policy and is making key changes to its army, navy, and air force. Canada has moreover made some significant, perhapsunprecedented, decisions in the past decade. Consider its engagement in sustained combat in Afghanistan, but not in Iraq. Canada's positioning towards the United States has also changed in recent years in a range of key areas, such as border management, the war on terror, the narcotics trade, and ballisticmissile defence. Moreover, as Arctic boundaries begin to alter with the advent of climate change, this question is taking on new urgency. This short, concise book evaluates the new Canada that has emerged in the first decade of the new millennium.
