Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly unveiled Canada’s long-delayed Indo-Pacific Strategy on Nov. 27, saying the government will pledge more resources to confront challenges in the region, including China’s “increasingly disruptive” ambitions.

“Today you will see the full picture of how Canada intends not just to engage but to lead in the midst of a generational global shift,” Joly said at a press conference in Vancouver.
