Summary / Abstract (Note) | This article challenges this accepted wisdom. Instead, it argues that Canadian burden-sharing in NATO in the 1990s was consistent with its relative capabilities to contribute to the alliance. Speacifically, it argues that Canada was not the laggard of the transatlantic alliance. In some instances, Canada even overperformed in comparision with its NATO allies and made more resource available than it was given credit for. In that sense, this article provides a revisionist analysis of Canada's performance in NATO and a more nuanced picture of Canada's role in the world in the 1990s. |
