2016年是小特鲁多上台执政的第一年,其外交政策充分体现了他在竞选期间强调的多边化、国际化,也凸显了加拿大外交战略向“重返亚太”的调整。在小特鲁多的带领下,加拿大外交进入了全方位发展的新时期,主要表现出三个特点与趋势:第一,致力于改善加拿大的国际形象,特别是在难民与气候问题上持续发力;第二,巩固与欧美传统盟友的关系;第三,“重返亚太”,加强对华关系,以经贸为主导,加入亚投行,启动自贸协定可行性研究。加拿大将在国际舞台上更具话语权,中加关系也将进一步发展与深化。
<<Canada's foreign policy in the year 2016,Justin Trudeau's first year in office,was marked by multilateralism and internationalism,both of which reflected Trudeau's policy statements during his election campaigns,as well as Canada's overall policy shift towards the so called ‘Asia-pacific pivot’.Under the leadership of its new government,Canada is entering a new age of all-round diplomacy marked by three tendencies:(1)the tendency of improving Canada's international image by carrying out Mr.Trudeau's election promises,especially those concerning refugees and climate changes;(2)the tendency of furthering relationship with traditional allies,including the United States and European countries;and (3)the tendency of strengthening the ‘Asia-pacific pivot’ by furthering economic ties with China,emphasizing trade relations,joining the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank,and initiating feasibility study on a potential FTA with China.Canada's strengthening international influence may serve to provide a more substantial foundation for the future development of China-Canada relations.
