From blowing up small boats allegedly carrying drugs in the Caribbean and Pacific—actions that, by some accounts, killed more than 100 people—to extracting Venezuela’s president through overwhelming military force; to threatening to deploy U.S. troops to Mexico to target drug cartels; to using inflammatory rhetoric that challenges Canadian and Greenlandic sovereignty; and to issuing a “National Security Strategy” that frames the Americas as a sphere in which he may impose U.S. objectives across virtually any policy domain, President Trump has ushered in a perilous new era in international relations.
On February 4 at 12:30 pm (EDT) we are bringing together an expert panel to discuss some of the implications of these changes. Please join Prof. Laura Macdonald (Carleton University), Prof. Ivelaw Lloyd Griffith (Caribbean Policy Consortium), Prof. Andy Knight (University of Alberta) and, his schedule permitting, the Hon. Bob Rae (former Canadian Ambassador to the U.N.) for an exploration of the issues at play.
