Summary

This year's volume in the Canada Among Nations series takes stock of Canada's evolving relationship with its most important hemispheric partner, the US. It looks to the future of Canada-US trade, investment, fiscal, and monetary linkages. Although there is widespread agreement that Canada's relationship with the US and other countries in the hemisphere must change and adapt to new economic, technological, and political realities, there is still no national consensus on what this means for Canadian domestic and foreign policies. This volume lays out these debates, indicating what the key issues of contention are.
