DESCRIPTION:Join MISC and the Diamond Brown Chair in Democratic Studies at 
 12:00 pm on Friday\, February 13 online for a webinar featuring Maria Popo
 va\, Vincent Rigby\, and Carsten-Andreas Schulz.\n\nThe Trump administrati
 on’s assertive stance toward Latin America and the Arctic suggests a hemis
 pheric extension of its “America First” doctrine\, rooted in historical pr
 ecedents like the Monroe Doctrine and Manifest Destiny. From Greenland to 
 Venezuela\, these policies have unsettled traditional allies and revived d
 ebates about U.S. regional dominance. This session examines the implicatio
 ns for Canada’s foreign policy\, assessing whether these developments mark
  a fundamental shift or a temporary disruption in U.S.-Canada relations.\n

 e at ���������Թ� and Scientific Director of the Jean Monnet Centre M
 ontreal. Her work explores the rule of law and democracy in Eastern Europe

 ic Safety\, the Department of National Defence\, and the former Canadian I

  Professor in International Relations at the Department of Politics and In
 ternational Studies (POLIS) and a Fellow of Gonville and Caius College\, U
