        Even more than it used to be. Canadian foreign policy regarding Iraq, Vietnam, and Cuba took a very different position to the US and was on the whole quite good (for a western country). But that was all decades ago. Practically speaking, Canada no longer has its own independent foreign policy.

          I mean, we’re still friends with Cuba, and never did get involved in Iraq which wasn’t so long ago.

        Even Europe and Oceania is onboard with this one, though. Don’t they usually abstain at least?

          Conservatives push up more to the US than UK

          It’s why we can’t get support behind CANZUK
