{"product_id":"canada-rising","title":"Canada Rising","description":"\u003cp\u003eCanada stands at a precarious crossroads. For decades, Canadians enjoyed the comforts of a protected North American market and the assurance of US security. That era is ending, as the return of Donald Trump to the White House, the weaponization of trade, mounting great-power rivalry, and emerging threats to Canada’s North have exposed the fragility of Canada’s strategic and economic position.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCanada Rising\u003c\/i\u003e offers a sophisticated, urgent analysis of this watershed moment and argues that reliance on the United States for prosperity and protection is no longer viable. Moving beyond diagnosis, the authors propose a comprehensive blueprint for Canada to reclaim its national destiny and achieve genuine strategic sovereignty. Canadian politics and economics experts Perrin Beatty and Fen Osler Hampson call for a fundamental transformation of the Canadian state and economy: dismantling archaic internal trade barriers, overcoming bureaucratic inertia, renewing innovation, and forging a more dynamic partnership between business and government. Externally, they advocate rebuilding Canada’s depleted military capabilities and diversifying trade relations beyond the United States. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eCanada Rising\u003c\/i\u003e contends that unless Canadians act with resolve to shape a post-American world order that reflects their own interests and values, they risk being consigned to the margins.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57503537299829,"sku":"9781049808345","price":21.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/canada-rising","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
