Canada: A Middle Power in Modern Conflicts

This video lesson looks at some of the ways that Canada has used its role as a middle power to influence military conflicts since the end of the Cold War. The case studies included are the First and Second Gulf Wars, the Rwandan Genocide, the War in Afghanistan, and the Syrian Civil War.

Hello, I am doing a research essay on “Canada’s role as a middle power”. If you don’t mind can you please list some of your sources so I can take a look. Thank you very much

"The Big Chill" by Robert Bothwell does a good job at examining Canada's role in Geopolitics throughout the Cold War. "Empire to Umpire" by Norman Hillmer and J.L. Granatstein is another good look at Canadian international relations in the 20th Century. For a more detailed look at Canada's role in peacekeeping, Romeo Dallarie's memoir on Rwanda is also a good source.
