Oh Canada! A critical perspective on Canadian foreign policy

In January, the new Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons came into force. But Canada was not one of the signatories. Why not? Last summer, we lost our bid for a seat on the UN Security Council. Why? There is a new cold war heating up with China. What role is Canada playing? Meanwhile, we continue to export weapons to Yemen and invest tens of millions in new fighter jets. Why these priorities? And what does anti-blackness look like in Canadian foreign policy?

Join Bianca Mugyenyi, Executive Director of the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute to learn about the importance of internationalism in a post-COVID-19 world.
