Woke up this morning to find my case study on AE financial statecraft published in Just Money - one of my faves. What a treat!

Very happy to see my first article submission out in Finance and Society. The article explores how the Government of Canada actively resisted 'Americanization' of the Canadian monetary-financial system amid the 1980s trend toward financial globalization. www.cambridge.org/core/journal...

I've always had a strange relationship with nationalism, especially loud forms, since pushing on it often tends toward absurdity and performance. That said, this piece seems exactly appropriate for the occasion. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhiK...

In our current existential crisis, Canadians risk overlooking our internationalist commitments. My latest piece explores how the next Government of Canada can act to revitalize our middle power status while preserving the liberal ideals we helped institute: policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/ma...

Canada should look south to the Caribbean amid Trump threats
As Canada navigates an uncertain global order, strengthening ties with CARICOM presents a strategic opportunity to restore its middle power status and reinforce liberal internationalist principles.

How do you annex a country economically? One place to start is its banking system. See my piece in The Conversation for risks to Canada's monetary sovereignty from meeting US demands for greater foreign bank access
