Canada and the Cold War

The Cold War was a period of tension between the Soviet Union and the United States; even if there was a little Soviet Union, the United States was an alliance as they had a common enemy, Nazi · Germany. The Cold War is not a real fight, only the Korean War is a real fight. This tension period began due to distrust between the two countries. Canada was a founding member of NATO, played an important role in the Cold War, and made a tremendous contribution during the tension. In addition to NATO, Canada is also actively involved in many other aspects of the Cold War, such as NORAD, Korean War, Gouzenko Incident.

Canadian diplomacy during the Cold War period was closely related to US diplomacy. Canada is a founding member of NATO (Canada also wants to be an economic and political alliance across the Atlantic Ocean). In 1950, as part of the UN army, Canada sent combat troops to North Korea during the Korean War. The federal government wants to claim territorial rights in the Arctic Circle during the Cold War era. This is reflected in the migration of the Arctic Highlands where Inuit moved from Nunavic (one third of northern Québec) to a barren cornwallis island. This project was later subject to long-term investigation by the royal indigenous peoples committee.

Canada's important contribution to the Cold War was in innovation and implementation of "peacekeeping". At the United Nations International Conference, Canadian Prime Minister Mackenzie King and Foreign Minister Luis Lauren proposed and advocated maintaining a peaceful UN military capability under the mission of the United Nations. It was organized in San Francisco in June 1945 and did not pass through those days.

The Cold War of Canada was formed by three opinions, internationalism, continentalism, nationalism. Diplomats and some politicians who incorporated Canada into Western Union are internationalists who believe this is a way to nurture rational nationalism. But they noticed Canada's economic prosperity and its defense ultimately depend on the United States, while the shortage of the United States and the weakness of the British economy made Canada south. It is also true that a Canadian company's wish for a wealthy and manageable market and the common vision of the world in North America is true. However, Canadian nationalism like John Dieffenbeck, in particular Pierre Trudeau, is looking at defense spending in a cautious way and is dissatisfied with the US bullying dominion. Dieffenbeck fights with President Kennedy and is knocked down
