"Winning by Not Engaging: Responding to a US Trade War" is a forward-thinking exploration of how Canada can navigate the challenges of a potential trade war with the United States without falling into the trap of retaliation. While many may assume that the only way to protect Canada's interests is through imposing tariffs in return, this book argues that such a strategy is ultimately a losing proposition for all parties involved. Instead, it offers a fresh perspective on how Canada can stand firm, protect its economic stability, and address its internal affordability crisis by implementing practical and transformative policies.
Canada can take actionable steps to overcome the economic disruption of a potential trade war in much the same way that various nations successfully dealt with the economic fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. The book highlights how countries implemented rapid economic recovery measures, from direct financial support for workers and families to large-scale investments in public services and infrastructure. Canada, by adopting similar strategies, can cushion the blow of external shocks while simultaneously addressing long-standing affordability issues. The focus is on strengthening the internal economy and supporting citizens through policies like guaranteed minimum income, expanded healthcare access, and targeted infrastructure investments. In this way, Canada can ensure resilience without resorting to damaging trade conflicts.
Whether you are a policymaker, an economist, or simply a concerned citizen, this book presents a comprehensive guide to strengthening Canada's position without engaging in a destructive trade war cycle. The goal is not to react, but to proactively shape a sustainable, equitable, and resilient future for all Canadians.
