From the Paper:

"Canada is a wealthy country, and is proud to be independent and democratic. However, it has been affected in recent years by globalization. It can be argued that globalization is threatening democracy in Canada, in a variety of ways. A large part of this comes from the fact that Canada's neighbor is the USA - a nation that can be shown to be the driving and defining force of globalization. This makes it close to impossible for Canada to resist the USA's demands that Canada accommodate its internal domestic policies to suit globalization."
