"Aid and Ebb Tide: A History of CIDA and Canadian Development Assistance examines Canada's mixed record since 1950 in transferring over $50 billion in capital and expertise to developing countries through ODA. It focuses in particular on the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the organization chiefly responsible for delivering Canada's development assistance. Aid and Ebb Tide calls for a renewed and reformed Canadian commitment to development cooperation at a time when the gap between the world's richest and poorest has been widening alarmingly and millions are still being born into poverty and human insecurity."--Jacket

The 2006 edition of this series examines how two different forms of minority - political and cultural - are shaping Canadian foreign policy. The book begins with an examination of the ways in which the Harper government will combine its ideas and priorities with its minority status in Parliament to forge its own foreign and security policy profile. Contributors then analyse the role played by distinctive political and cultural minority groups in shaping Canada's foreign relations and show how these groups are shaped and influenced by Canadian policies at home and abroad.
