The Canadian Century: Managing the Neighbours
Part Two: AIMS Senior Fellow Brian Lee Crowley is the co-author of a new book called The Canadian Century: Moving out of America’s Shadow. The book details the tremendous progress Canada has made in recent years in redeeming itself from decades of poor policy. In fact the book holds out the prospect of Canada finally claiming the century that Sir Wilfrid Laurier predicted would be ours – just 100 years late. In the first of two extracts published in the National Post, Crowley and his co-authors talk about Laurier’s plan for Canada and how the return to his policy prescription for Canada has paid important dividends. In the second extract they write about how to take the relationship with the US to the next level.
