Produktbeschreibung
When President Barack Obama sat at his desk for the first time in the Oval Office in January 2009, one of the farthest things from his mind was Canada. On Capitol Hill the whirling pursuit of interests was intense. In Ottawa, Canada's senior officials were too preoccupied to appreciate that the nation's neighbors to the south weren't paying attention to the affairs and concerns of the Great White North. Canada's relations with the United States are broad and deep, and with Obama in the White House, the two countries are about to enter what could be a new era of hope and renewal. From water and energy policy to defense, environmental strategy, and Arctic sovereignty, author David Dyment provides an astute, pithy analysis of the past, present, and future continental dance between two countries that have much in common yet often step on each other's feet.
