Topic: Canadian foreign policy

Canadian foreign policy has increasingly aligned with American imperialism, prioritizing military contracts and resource extraction over diplomacy, sovereignty, and Indigenous rights.

More on: Canadian foreign policy

The podcast episodes explore how Canada's foreign policy has become increasingly entangled with American imperialism, with the country's military procurement and economic interests in regions like Tigray undermining its ability to pursue an independent and peaceful approach to global challenges.

For example, one episode critiques Canada's plan to purchase F-35 fighter jets, arguing that it escalates tensions with Russia and China and serves the interests of the 'military-industrial complex' rather than those of Canadians. Another episode highlights Canada's complicity in the ongoing Tigrayan genocide due to its mining interests in the region, calling for greater accountability and pressure on the Canadian government to end its support for atrocities.

These episodes suggest that a shift towards diplomacy, disarmament, and international cooperation is needed to address global challenges and uphold Canadian values of peace and human rights.
