Beset by a pandemic and hemmed in by America-first administrations in Washington, the shrinking horizons of Canadian foreign policy have seemingly exhausted the Liberal government’s global ambitions.

Opinion: Cuts to Radio Canada International can only hurt Canadaâs image and influence abroad Politicians proclaim the world needs more Canada, then complain when they learn the world does not know enough about us.
