Canada’s current government made a lot of noise in 2006 and 2007, calling for a total overhaul of Canada’s military presence in the Arctic. Is Canada really on its way to becoming an Arctic military power, or was that all said in the heat of the electoral moment asks Zachary Fillingham of the Geopoliticalmonitor.

Canada Briefing
Canadian political culture is fairly moderate, with few supporters of either extreme conservatism or extreme liberalism. Canada has typically valued international law, peacekeeping, human rights, trade and multiculturalism, and has often had comparatively permissive attitudes towards immigration, and low tolerance for aggression.

Canada: The Multipolar Opportunist?
The world order of the 21st century is undergoing a deep transformation as the post-Cold War United States hegemony continues its slow and steady decline. As a result, we are beginning to see developing countries emerge as important players in the arena of global politics. Canada occupies a unique position in this new world order as a multilateral, cooperative and activist middle-power, and as such it is well placed to benefit from the global shift towards multipolarity, says Adriano Marchese of Geopoliticalmonitor.
