Answer: |
Yes, Canads should focus on cultivatng new economic partnerships with emerging powers such as China, India, Mexico and Brazil. It should push forward freer trade and political ties - along the lines of dual citizenship to India - with these nations. Further, it should spur the incorporation of these nations into the G7 body and other similar multilaterl institutions. But it should be ensured that these emerging nations recognise that it ws Canada that assisted them, in hopes of assuring closer ties and reciprocity between us.
Further, there should be consideration into economic integration into existing middle powers and other developing nations. Canada should seek involvement in the EU, the Middle East, Africa, Far East Asia, Eastern europe and foster these ties to the point where our trade and allegiances are not bound solely to the United States as it is. This is somthing we should move away from. Perhaps not explicitly, but have such a reserve capacity that our politics and economics are as much (if not more) bound to these other nations as opposed to the United States.
