Foreign Policy

Canada's foreign policy centres on multilateralism, alliance management (particularly with the United States and NATO), and values-based diplomacy emphasising human rights, democratic governance, and free trade. Key frameworks include USMCA (successor to NAFTA), the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership (CPTPP), and CETA with the European Union.

Canada balances its deep economic integration with the United States against a desire to diversify partnerships, particularly with Indo-Pacific nations. It is a vocal advocate for nuclear disarmament, Arctic sovereignty, and indigenous rights on the global stage.
