Donkey or Elephant?: The Impact on Canada after the Circus Ends
By Fraser Institut... on September 17, 2008 - 1:08pm
As Barack Obama and John McCain formulate their policy platforms, Canadians need to pay keen attention to the candidate’s views. Beyond American priorities, what are the current bilateral issues that will determine the shape of the Canada-U.S. relationship?
Key questions surround the future of NAFTA, the thickening border, energy, trade and environmental policy, as well as homeland security and defence. Where do Obama and McCain stand on these topics, and what will the reverberating effects of their policies be across the border? Canadian interests hang in the balance as we wait to see who moves into the White House.
Dr. Moens is a professor of international relations at Simon Fraser University. An expert in American foreign policy, he has published numerous books and articles on American presidential decision-making, as well as North American and European security issues.

Being President of the United States is a lot like trying to run the circus from the monkey cage.
I'm hoping that our American cousins are smart enough to give 'Geriatric John' the boot, because he's just another 'Dubya' also-ran, in bed with Big Oil,and Big 'BS'...and America is already too unpopular in the rest of the world to continue on that track. It needs a change of direction. Why? - Just look at the mess they're in right now!
