What Drives Canada's Foreign Policy?

from The Rundown · host TVO

Canada says it stands for human rights, but its foreign policy often reflects hard-nosed realities. Prime Minister Mark Carney argues Canada must deal with the world as it is, but Ottawa is deepening ties with countries like the UAE and China despite serious human rights concerns. So when values clash with economics and geopolitics, what really drives Canada's decisions? The Rundown begins there, before turning to the latest developments in the war in Iran and its global fallout.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
