"Ms. Freeland’s address is, in effect, a promise to Canada’s European and Asian allies that we are with them, not with the Americans."


Serious? Canada's Pacific Navy is using ONE borrowed Supply ship from Chile, ONE 35 year old ex British submarine that doesn't submerge and at any time two working 25 year old Frigates that don't have air defence capabilities. Japan, Korea, Taiwan, Australia consider this a token laughing stock. Canada is irrelevant in any capacity to support Asian or European allies. Canada talks a good talk. 
US is fully integrated with its Asian Pacific Allies and provides overwhelming force to protect them which is much appreciated in those Asian countries.
