Book Synopsis

This book is addressed to young Canadians interested in a career in the foreign service. It will appeal, too, to all those interested in the operation of the Canadian external service. M. Cadieux attempts to determine whether it is possible to discover any distinctive characteristics in the Canadian diplomat; and, since a Canadian diplomat is representative of his country, thereby to provide an approximate image of a Canadian.

The Canadian diplomatic service, British in origin and tradition, has acquired, he finds, a distinctive quality through its empirical working methods. Its officers are no longer only symbols of Canadian political independence: with important and numerous tasks, they must demonstrate organizing ability and a sense of the practical. In their work they have come to be characterized by restraint in their actions and by anxiety to find workable solutions for problems as they arise.

Since Canada is dual in its culture and federal in its constitution, sin
