Biographic Sketch: Ambassador Garango, 54, married, 2 children. Previous assignments include Minister of Finance, 1966-1976 and Ambassador to Federal Republic of Germany, Austria and Yugoslavia, 1977-1981. Pertinent Background: There have been no visits to the U.S. by the Upper Volta Head of State since the recent change in government, nor have the President or Vice President visited Upper Volta. (Mrs. Bush made a brief refueling stop in Upper Volta during her November 1981 trip to Africa, and was greeted by the President's wife, Mrs. Zerbo.) Significant Issues: A group of military officers led by Colonel Zerbo seized power in a bloodless coup on Novem- ber 27, 1980. The coup has not damaged relations with the U.S., which traditionally have been cordial. Upper Volta is one of the poorest countries in the world, and suffered seriously during the Sahel drought in the 1970s. Principal bilateral issues thus center on the significant U.S. AID program, which is carried out with the cooperation of about 80 Peace Corps Volunteers. Issues for Discussion: Express appreciation for Voltan support for the Camp David accords and its UN votes on Afghanistan, Puerto Rico and other issues of concern to us. Reassure Ambassador that, in spite of painful but necessary cuts in U.S. foreign assistance budget, we will do our best to preserve essential elements of assistance to Upper Volta.

  • MARCEL CADIEUX, the DEPARTMENT of EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, and CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: 1941-1970
    MARCEL CADIEUX, the DEPARTMENT of EXTERNAL AFFAIRS, and CANADIAN INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS: 1941-1970 by Brendan Kelly A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Brendan Kelly 2016 ii Marcel Cadieux, the Department of External Affairs, and Canadian International Relations: 1941-1970 Brendan Kelly Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2016 Abstract Between 1941 and 1970, Marcel Cadieux (1915-1981) was one of the most important diplomats to serve in the Canadian Department of External Affairs (DEA). A lawyer by trade and Montreal working class by background, Cadieux held most of the important jobs in the department, from personnel officer to legal adviser to under-secretary. Influential as Cadieux’s career was in these years, it has never received a comprehensive treatment, despite the fact that his two most important predecessors as under-secretary, O.D. Skelton and Norman Robertson, have both been the subject of full-length studies. This omission is all the more glaring since an appraisal of Cadieux’s career from 1941 to 1970 sheds new light on the Canadian diplomatic profession, on the DEA, and on some of the defining issues in post-war Canadian international relations, particularly the Canada-Quebec-France triangle of the 1960s. A staunch federalist, Cadieux believed that French Canadians could and should find a place in Ottawa and in the wider world beyond Quebec. This thesis examines Cadieux’s career and argues that it was defined by three key themes: his anti-communism, his French-Canadian nationalism, and his belief in his work as both a diplomat and a civil servant.

As societies evolved, so did diplomacy. In the context of the relationship between Canada and the United States the issue of acid rain resulted in some unusual diplomatic tactics being employed by Canada. This thesis seeks to review the degree of this unusual behaviour and determine whether it is an indication of a shift in the nature of diplomacy in the Canadian-American relationship, or an isolated incident, not likely to be repeated. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMEN1S There are a number of people to whom I am indebted for the successful completion of this thesis. Of particular note is my supervisor, Professor Kim Richard Nossal, for his patience and guidance throughout the many months. In addition, I appreciative of the support and suggestions from Professors Richard Stubbs and George Breckenridge. I also owe a great deal to my parents for granting me the gift of curiosity as well as their constant support as I searched for answers.

  • ''Six Mois A` Hanoi'': Marcel Cadieux, Canada, and The
    BRENDAN KELLY ‘‘Six mois a` Hanoi’’: Marcel Cadieux, Canada, and the International Commission for Supervision and Control in Vietnam, 1954–5 Abstract: Drawing on an unpublished memoir by Marcel Cadieux entitled ‘‘Six mois a` Hanoi,’’ this article offers the first biographical study of a Canadian diplomat to serve on the International Commission for Supervision and Control in Vietnam. It argues that Cadieux’s pioneering experience on that commission during its first months in 1954–5 shaped his pro-American views on the Vietnam War as under- secretary of state for external affairs between 1964 and 1970. It also uses Cadieux’s tenure in Hanoi as a lens through which to explore larger issues of both long-standing and more recent interest to Canadian international historians, including the bureaucratic culture of the Department of External Affairs, Canadian diplomacy’s relationship with the decolonizing countries of the Third World, and the role of race, culture, religion, and anti-communism in the making of Canadian foreign policy. Keywords: Marcel Cadieux, biography, Canada, Vietnam, diplomacy, Interna- tional Commission for Supervision and Control, Department of External Affairs, Cold War, Vietnam War, Third World, decolonization, communism, race, culture, religion Re´sume´ : S’appuyant sur un me´moire ine´dit de Marcel Cadieux intitule´ « Six mois a` Hanoi », l’auteur pre´sente la premie`re e´tude biographique d’un diplomate canadien ayant sie´ge´ a` la Commission internationale pour la surveillance et le controˆle au Vieˆt- Nam. Selon lui, l’expe´rience pionnie`re de Cadieux durant les premiers mois d’existence de cette commission, en 1954-1955, a fac¸onne´ ses opinions proame´ricaines au sujet de la guerre du Vieˆt-Nam alors qu’il e´tait sous-secre´taire d’E´tat aux Affaires exte´rieures, de 1964 a` 1970.

Document Type: Article Copyright: COPYRIGHT 2003 Canadian-American Center Full Text: I. GENERAL ARGUMENT Closely interrelated public opinion on trade, border security, and defense issues has divided Canadians along predictable and traditional lines that reflect the persistence of certain continuities. As always, Canadians differ sharply on relations with the United States. They apply their conception of this relationship to their positions on issues of the day, as on border security after September 11, and to Operation Iraqi Freedom and missile defense in early 2003.

  • Playing by New Rules: Allan Gotlieb, Public Diplomacy, and the Management of Canada-Us Relations
    PLAYING BY NEW RULES: ALLAN GOTLIEB, PUBLIC DIPLOMACY, AND THE MANAGEMENT OF CANADA-US RELATIONS ANDREW F. COOPER In the early 1980s, the Trudeau government adopted a new, high-profile style in the conduct of Canadiandiplomacy with the United States. CanadianAmbassador Allan Gotlieb led the campaign of public diplomacy to raise the consciousness of Americans, in elite circles and the broaderpublic, about Canadianconcerns. Here, Andrew Cooper examines the origins and nature of the approach, its strengths and weaknesses, and its possible role in future Canada-US relations. Canadian diplomacy vis-i-vis the United States took a new shape at the beginning of the 1980s. Most strikingly, "public diplomacy" became a central feature in the management of Canada-US relations. A comprehensive analysis of Canada's experience with respect to public diplomacy sheds light on certain broader questions about the concept and practice of this diplomatic technique.' The origins of Canadian public diplomacy possess both external and internal dimensions. Externally, the most important factor influencing the shift in approach of Canadian diplomacy was a transformation in the "rules of the game" in the Canada-US relationship. Internally, a central factor was the role of Allan Gotlieb as the architect and leading practitioner of this "thoroughly modern" type of diplomacy, 2 especially during his ambassadorship to the United States from December 1981 to January 1989. Indeed, the practice of Canadian public diplomacy toward the United States during the 1980s may be said to be his diplomacy to a large extent. The ends and means of Canadian public diplomacy distinguished this approach both from traditional Canadian diplomacy and other forms of public diplomacy.
