Analyzing the Canada-U.S. Environmental Relationship: A Multi-Faceted Approach.

The article analyzes Canada-U.S. environmental relationship as of March 2003. Canada and the United States share a set of ecosystems that span the North American continent and the transboundary nature of environmental problems creates the need for cooperation between the two countries at multiple levels. To grasp the full complexity of the Canada-U.S. environmental relationship, one must employ a multi-faceted framework for analyzing cross-border interactions. To add to the complexity, by the mid-1990s the Canadian-American environmental relationship was increasingly seen as also being anchored in a trilateral framework.
