  • Chapter 5 Québec Impact on Triangular Relations Politics And
    Chapter 5 Québec Impact on Triangular Relations Politics and Security Policies Introduction The previous chapter assessed the economic importance of the province of Quebec, it pointed out the influence of the province on Canadian economic issues, taking as example the signature of the Canada-United States Free Trade Agreement, which not only revealed extremely profitable for the country but for the overall Canadian provinces and the U.S., creating a more homogeneous North America. It also determined the economic influence of the province, providing evidences that even though it represents only one tenth of the whole Canada (in terms of provinces), still accounts for an undeniable percentage of the overall Canadian economy and trade with Canada’s southern neighbor, hence has enough weight to occasionally influence the Country’s trade policy. In the last chapter, it was also discussed and understood that Quebec enjoys a relatively good trade relation with the United States, thus has the ability to play a role in the Canada-U.S. bilateral policies. As well, previously shown in the first chapter of this present thesis, there exist fundamental differences between the Canadian and the Quebecois culture, and as their language, life habits and other measurable differences were compared, there still remain differences that cannot be measured i.e. the level of pacifism or antimilitarism of a population (which will be assessed in this last chapter) . This chapter emphasizes on the fact that the Quebecois population is in majority antimilitarist, and that this antimilitarist state of mind has played several times on the province of Quebec’s public opinion, thus influencing some decisions previously taken by the federal government.

  • Canada and ‘Re-Engaging’ United Nations Peacekeeping
    Canada and ‘Re-engaging’ United Nations Peacekeeping. A Critical Examination. by Daria Goncharova A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of the University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Political Studies University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2018 Daria Goncharova ii Abstract With the advent of Justin Trudeau in 2015, Canada appears to be determined to revitalize its historic role as a peacekeeper. Central is whether Canada truly abandoned UN peacekeeping per se. In order to answer this question, the following needs to be addressed. The first relates to the meaning of UN peacekeeping and the evolution of peacekeeping’s aims, tools, and basic principles, such as consent, impartiality, and the appropriate use of force. The second concerns the role of Canada in UN peacekeeping from 1947 to 2017. Given the nature of UN peacekeeping and Canada’s role from 1947 to 2017, the rhetoric of Trudeau government is confusing. Canada never truly disengaged from UN peacekeeping. Rather, for a variety of reasons, it shifted from UN-led to UN-approved peace operations. If the Trudeau government’s re-engagement means he intends to support UN-led missions rather than UN-approved peace operations in contradiction from the current trend, this has several implications that require careful examination. The final chapter articulates some of these implications. iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Jim Fergusson. I appreciate his time, patience, guidance, and support. Thank you so much for helping me improve my writing skills and critical thinking.

  • Russia-Canada Relations in a Period of Crisis, 2014-2020
    30 Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies, 14(1) 2020: 30-54 ISSN 2562-8429 Russia-Canada Relations in a Period of Crisis, 2014-2020 Natalia Viakhireva1 Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC) Abstract This article explores the state of Russian-Canadian relations from 2014 to 2020, identifying areas where cooperation is still possible. Russian-Canadian bilateral relations are deeply affected by the crisis in Russia-West relations and are at their lowest point since the end of the Cold War. Despite the sanctions and accusatory rhetoric from politicians on both sides, ‘niche cooperation’ between the two countries is still possible in areas of common interest. Cooperation on non-political issues and the use of instruments of alternative diplomacy – Track II diplomacy, para-diplomacy, business diplomacy, and parliamentary diplomacy – are all workable approaches, with the potential for positive interactions during the crisis. One very promising area of cooperation is interaction in the Arctic region through bilateral and multilateral frameworks. 1 Natalia Viakhireva is an expert and program manager at Russian International Affairs Council (RIAC). 31 Canadian Journal of European and Russian Studies, 14(1) 2020: 30-54 ISSN 2562-8429 Introduction Political relations between Russia and Canada from 2014 to 2020 show that bilateral relations have been affected by the crisis in Russia-West relations and limited by a war of sanctions and accusatory rhetoric from both sides. In Canada, mainstream political discourse does not support dialogue with Russia, while in Russia, Canada itself and Russian-Canadian relations are not among central topics of political discourse and research. This makes the search for a common dialogue complicated.

Taking their name from the distinctive towers built during the nineteenth century to defend Kingston, Ontario, these papers cover a wide range of topics and issues in foreign and defence policy, and in the study of international peace and security. CIDP hosts a number of Fellows, whose extraordinary experience and expertise across a range of subject areas are invaluable in ensuring that the work of the Centre is and remains of interest and value in both academic and policy circles. We are extremely fortunate that we can count Louis A. Delvoie as one of their number. With a thirty-year career in the Canadian Foreign Service serving, amongst other roles, as the Canadian High Commissioner to Pakistan, the Ambassador to Algeria, the Deputy High Commissioner to the United Kingdom, the Director General of the Bureau of International Security and Arms Control in the Department of External Affairs, and Assistant Deputy Minister for Policy in the Department of National Defence, Ambassador Delvoie has been ‘front and centre’ of Canadian foreign policy through one of the most intriguing and formative periods in this country’s history.
