Canada's Indo-Pacific Strategy: A Postcolonial Review

Résumé

Since the announcement of the Canadian Indo-Pacific Strategy in November 2022, a myriad of scholarship and policy discussions have emerged. This policy review provides an overview of new scholarly and policy discussions (2022-2024) of Canada's Indo-Pacific Strategy and considers key areas missing within the debates. Through a postcolonial lens, this review provides a non-exhaustive and preliminary critique of current discussions of the Strategy, initiating prompts for future critical analysis of Canadian foreign policy in the Indo-Pacific.
