Episode 37: Jeremy Paltiel - Xi-Trump Beijing Summit, No space for Canada?

China needs a China strategy, not just a reaction driven foreign policy based on China engagement. As a leading middle-power it is high time for Canada to craft a China strategy that relies less on reaction reflex and emotion and more on realism driven by its national interests.. While Canada cannot ignore Washington's concerns and trade potential, it cannot let great-power rivalry completely define its foreign policy.------------------------------------------------------------------------------ JEREMY PALTIEL Professor of Political Science (emeritus)  at Carleton University, Canada.
