Joe Biden's last official visit to Canada came with a palpable sense of foreboding. Six years later, Biden is coming back - this time as president - and the world is very different. His message likely won't be.
WASHINGTON - Joe Biden's last official visit to Canada came with a palpable sense of foreboding.
“There's a seriousness to this moment in America,” said Goldy Hyder, the president and CEO of the Business Council of Canada, who spent much of last week meeting with U.S. officials in D.C. “For America, there's nothing more important, and there should nothing more important for us, quite frankly.” More and more jurisdictions, including the European Union and U.S. states like California and Maryland, are drawing up ambitious plans to end the manufacture of internal-combustion vehicles by 2035, Miller noted.
National security, too, has been top of mind ever since last month's flurry of floating objects exposed what Norad commander Gen. Glen VanHerck called a “domain awareness gap” in North America's aging binational defence system. Hyder said he expects the U.S. to continue to press Canada on meeting its NATO spending commitments, and reiterate hopes it will eventually agree to take on a leading role in restoring some order in lawless, gang-ravaged Haiti.
Even in the face of public - if diplomatic - pressure from U.S. officials, Trudeau would rather help from a distance, investing in security forces and using sanctions to target the powerful Haitian elites fostering the unrest.
