Policy Horizons Canada considers that the scenario of a civil war in the United States is unlikely, but that it would have a major impact on Canada if it occurred.
John McArthur, who sits on the organization’s committee, told Politico the warning could show the deep anxiety Canada currently feels about U.S. policy.
This does not have to mean another civil war between the states in the style of 1861. The professor also points out that it depends on how one defines civil war.
At the same time, he emphasizes that he was speaking on his own behalf and not on behalf of the organization.
