Defending Canada’s ‘slipping’ sovereignty

The Vancouver Sun cited UBC law professor Joel Bakan, and UBC political scientist emeritus Philip Resnick, for a story on the idea that sovereignty is declining in Canada.

Bakan, creator of the financial documentary, The Corporation, said “in the past 30 years of economic globalization there has been an attack on the idea of the nation state.”

Resnick said much of Canada’s English-speaking centre-left now puts most of its energy into supporting “cosmopolitanism.”

The story also appeared in the Montreal Gazette.
