- [observation, 2013, as a former prime minister] The present Canadian government has aggressively narrowed Canada's official international policy to concentrate on trade and military initiatives, diluting Canada's traditional signature contributions to both international development and multilateralism, and rejecting conciliation, most notably in the tinderbox of the Middle East..Canada now talks more than we act, and our tone is almost adolescent - forceful, certain, enthusiastic, combative, full of sound and fury.
