Just as good neighbours can sometimes clash, Canada and the United States are feeling the strain of an ongoing economic tug-of-war. To understand the future of immigration, trade, and sustainability, we need to take a closer look at the political decisions that led to this point.
On October 23 at 12:00 p.m., CBC’s Dan Burritt will moderate a free alumni UBC webinar, alongside three UBC experts from diverse fields discussing shifting dynamics with a once steadfast ally.
Join the conversation and discover what’s next for the nation on the global stage.
Speakers:
Dr. Justin Bull — Lecturer, UBC Sauder School of Business; Academic Director, Master of MEL and MHLP, UBC
Dr. Michael Devereux — Professor, Vancouver School of Economics, Faculty of Arts, UBC
Dr. Terri Givens — Professor, Department of Political Science, Faculty of Arts, UBC
