Likewise, Canada has at times played an important role in the Middle East that is not fully appreciated. So, to better understand Canada it is important to better understand its connection to the region.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Established in 1992, <em>CFPJ<\/em> is now Canada\u2019s leading journal of international affairs. <em>CFPJ <\/em>foregrounds quantitative and qualitative methodologies, especially empirically based original studies that facilitate grounded and fresh analysis to serve theory, policy, and strategy development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Readers can download select <em>CFPJ<\/em> articles free of charge on the Journal\u2019s affiliate website <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iaffairscanada.com\">www.iaffairscanada.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>CFPJ<\/em> is published by NPSIA and this issue marks the end of its 26th year of publication.
