By mapping decades of Canada’s role in global militarization, a position that has led to death, destruction, and destabilization around the world, Canada and NATO: Myth of a Global Peacekeeper carefully pulls apart longstanding myths and misconceptions regarding Canada’s role in world conflicts, and disrupts the popular perception of NATO in the West: that the alliance is a defensive security organization rather than an offensive organization led by the capitalist interests of the U.S. and its allies.

With careful historical research and lucid political analysis, Schalk delivers compelling reasons for Canada’s exit from NATO at a time when rapidly intensifying global change requiring sustainable, socially-drive, and peaceful solutions, has instead been met by Western powers with astronomical and ever-escalating plans for militarization that can only lead down a path to catastrophic global war.

Praise for Canada & NATO

“Owen Schalk’s Canada and NATO is an exposé about the role of a country that hides behind the fact that is is not the United States, when it has supported almost every US military adventure and it has defended the right of its mining companies to exploit the Global South. We need this book.”
– Vijay Prashad, executive director of the Tricontinental Institute for Social Research
“Owen Schalk makes the definitive case for Canada to withdraw from NATO. He explains the fascist origins of the U.S.-led military alliance and how it has used violence to expand capitalism and enrich thee Western corporate elite. Canada and NATO will inform and infuriate you.”
– Tamara Lorincz, PhD, Balsillie School of International Affairs, Wilfred Laurier University, and Fellow with the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute
