The Interests of Canadian Capital in Latin America: A Case Study of Honduras and Colombia

Abstract

This paper explores the often-overlooked topic of Canadian imperialism, which has global and local repercussions but receives less scrutiny than its American counterpart. Research reveals that Canada has been engaging in imperialist practices for decades, with Latin America as a primary target. Through case studies of Honduras and Colombia, this paper uncovers the negative impact of Canadian resource extraction on these countries, with a focus on mining. By analyzing the Canadian imperialist project in depth, this research contributes to a better understanding of the geopolitical landscape and highlights the need for more attention to be paid to Canadian imperialism.
