CDN Foreign Policy Influencers

We have a new prime minister, a new government and new foreign minister — and a new foreign policy

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of International Trade, the Minister responsible for Canada-US trade, Intergovernmental Affairs and One Canadian Economy, and the Secretary of State (International Development), are responsible for advancing Canada’s international relations

Foreign Minister Anita Indira Anand speaks of a shared perspective with Mark Carney:

And we are of the same viewpoint in terms of building new economic partnerships, new geostrategic partnerships, forging new alliances, and ensuring that we are never again 80% dependent on one economy.

This is an all-hands-on-deck moment for our country.
