Canadian Issues has been ACS’ flagship bilingual publication since 2000. The now digital editions (bi-annually) showcase short essays and interviews from/with leading academics from across Canada as well as experts from non-governmental organizations, government and civil society and are designed to expand Canadians’ knowledge about their country. We are grateful for the continued support from Canadian Heritage.
This edition of Canadian Issues examines the sharp turn in Canada-U.S. relations under President Trump, questioning whether a long-standing partnership built on trade, security, and shared values is fundamentally shifting. Framed by the distant memory of the War of 1812, contributors offer reflections on the impact of U.S. tariffs, rising tensions, and the challenges facing Prime Minister Mark Carney’s new Liberal government as it seeks to navigate an increasingly uncertain cross-border relationship.
As the 80th anniversary of Auschwitz's liberation nears, preserving Holocaust memory is increasingly urgent. This collection offers Canadian perspectives on the challenges of remembrance, featuring contributors from fields such as history, law, and education. Blending scholarly research, advocacy, and personal insights, these reflections highlight the enduring importance of Holocaust memory and its universal lessons.
