Study Group with Susan Glasser & Peter Baker: Canada in the Crosshairs

Not since the War of 1812 have U.S. relations with Canada, traditionally its closest friend, been so strained. As Trump turns American foreign relations upside down, one of the most striking reversals is his repeated threat to make Canada the 51st state over its objection. Now he has called off trade talks out of pique over an anti-tariff ad. His rhetoric has roiled politics in Canada, depressed cross-border trade and travel and fueled anti-Americanism in the most pro-American country in the world.

GUEST: Chrystia Freeland, Former Deputy Prime Minister & Foreign Minister of Canada

AUDIENCE: These conversations are open to members of the Harvard community. Please RSVP with a valid Harvard email address.
