However, despite it achievements, Canada faced many new and longstanding political challenges.Canada was not immune to widespread turmoil and uncertainty rooted in war, disease, and the effects of globalization such as SARS, mad cow disease, and a large-scale blackout affecting the north-eastern United States and Ontario. The United States was becoming mired in a complex and prolonged war with Iraq, and a large contingent of Canada's armed forces remained in Afghanistan. Additional security measures were implemented to meet the threat of terrorism, while Mahar Arar's accounts of torture endured in a Syrian jail became a symbol of public doubt about many of the new counter-terrorism initiatives.The Canadian Annual Review of Politics and Public Affairs 2003 is the latest instalment in an acclaimed series that offers informed commentary on important events, and thoughtfully considers their significance in local and international contexts.Canadian Annual Review of Politics and Public Affairs.0315-1433.POLITICAL SCIENCE / GeneralbisacshCanadaEconomic conditions1945-CanadaForeign relations1945-CanadaPolitics and government1945-Electronic books.POLITICAL SCIENCE / General.330.971064Mutimer David, 949749Mutimer DavidScholars Portal.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458368003321Canadian annual review of politics and public affairs, 20032146688UNINA
