UBC Okanagan Debates, Canada-USA: Allies or Adversaries?

April 22, 2025 at 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Canada-USA: Allies or adversaries? UBC Okanagan Debates.

Uncertainty about Canada’s relationship with our southern neighbour has reached unprecedented levels. 

Canada’s relationship with the United States presents a complex strategic puzzle for the coming years. Should Canada prioritize pragmatic approaches to avoid friction or is it time to redefine and unravel our alliance with the United States?

One thing is for certain, Canadians have spoken, and Canada’s sovereignty is not for sale. Experts will share insights into how best to move forward with these changing dynamics.

Join us for this important conversation on April 22.
