In this episode of Asia Pacific Conversations, Vina Nadjibulla, APF Canada’s Vice-President Research & Strategy, looks back at the key developments and lessons in Canada-Asia relations from 2024. And she dusts off her crystal ball to discuss the critical themes, key countries, and big trends we’ll be watching at APF Canada in 2025.
Hosted by our Communications Director Michael Roberts, this first podcast episode of 2025 touches down on Trump 2.0 and the implications of the new U.S. administration for Canada and Asia. It explores political instability and the changing nature of international trade and globalization, discusses continuing conflict on the high seas and competition in space, the Arctic, and the AI realm, and provides insights into Canada’s future relations with China and India in the coming year.
