Canada at the Crossroads

By Angelic Luong

Canada at the Crossroads examines the structural transformation of global trade and its implications for Canada's economic sovereignty. As trade, supply chains, and market access become increasingly weaponized, traditional assumptions about stability, proximity, and diversification no longer hold.

This book argues that Canada's current trade model was designed for an earlier global order-one defined by predictable partners, labor-based value creation, and rule-based cooperation. That order is rapidly dissolving. Trade tensions, supply-chain disruptions, and market volatility are not temporary shocks but signals of a deeper systemic shift.

Rather than treating trade as a technical or negotiable domain, the analysis situates it at the core of national choice, strategic autonomy, and long-term economic security. Canada is presented not as a passive actor adjusting to external pressures, but as a country facing an existential decision: to remain structurally dependent, or to actively redesign its economic position within a reconfigured global order.

This volume offers a framework for understanding that choice-and its consequences.
