Podcast Overview

Welcome to Diplomatic Dispatch, a new podcast series by Radio Canada International. My goal is to bring you insights into Canada’s foreign, defence and development policy. I’ll discuss Canada’s global role through interviews with policy makers, former and serving diplomats and soldiers, academics and think tank experts, humanitarian workers, civil society activists and entrepreneurs. What is Canada’s foreign policy? How should Canada conduct its foreign policy? Who should conduct that policy? Should that policy change? And if yes, how? Who are Canada’s allies and who are its foes? And what do we do with them? These are all questions that I’m hoping to ask and try to answer in this podcast series.

Diplomatic Dispatch – Episode 9: The youth perspective

Climate action has to become the cornerstone of not only Canada's domestic policy but also of Ottawa's foreign policy, says Dominique Souris, co-founder and executive director of Youth Climate Lab.<br /> <br /> "As far as I'm concerned, foreign policy is climate policy," Souris says. "We're talking about a global climate problem, a global climate emergency."<br /> <br /> She also calls on the federal government to incorporate traditional Indigenous knowledge in its policy and recognize the role Indigenous people play in safeguarding the planet's biodiversity.<br /> <br /> Duration: 12 minutes 18 seconds<br /> <br /> https://www.rcinet.ca/en/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2020/01/Diplomatic_Dispatch-E9-The_youth_perspective.mp3

Diplomatic Dispatch – Episode 8: A revolution in foreign policy thinking

Canada needs a “revolution” in its foreign policy thinking to deal with the tectonic geopolitical changes going on in the world, says Leonard Edwards, a former Canadian Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs.<br /> <br /> “The issue is how do we manage within an international frame where there is tension between the United States and China and where we will be caught in the middle on some issues?” Edwards told Diplomatic Dispatch during an interview in Ottawa at the sidelines of the Summit on Canada’s Global Leadership at the end of November.<br /> <br /> “And I think that the only way we are going to deal with that is if we stand aside, be more independent, speak more loudly, ensure that we have the security wherewithal to look after ourselves, develop alliances with other major countries – we are a major country in this world, there are number of countries that are feeling exactly the same pressures we are – and to work with them to mitigate the impact of this bilateral split that seems to be evolving.”<br /> <br /> Duration:  17 minutes 51 seconds<br /> <br /> https://www.rcinet.ca/en/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2020/01/Diplomatic_Dispatch-E8-A_revolution_in_foreign_policy_thinking.mp3

Diplomatic Dispatch – Episode 7: Rebuilding Canada’s global leadership

Canada has plenty of opportunities to show leadership on the international stage, says Peggy Mason, president of the Rideau Institute, an independent foreign policy and defence think tank.<br /> <br /> These include taking on a greater role – and not necessarily a military one – in UN peacekeeping operations, working on defending and strengthening international law, leading an international campaign to ban weapons in space and killer robots.<br /> <br /> But first, Ottawa needs to conduct a root-and-branch foreign policy review and reinvest massively in its diplomatic cadres, says Mason.<br /> <br /> Duration: 22 minutes 13 seconds<br /> <br /> https://www.rcinet.ca/en/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2020/01/Diplomatic_Dispatch-E7-Rebuilding_Canadas_global_leadership.mp3
