U.S.-Canada Relations and Biomedical Ethics

This chapter explores the complexities of U.S.-Canada relations, particularly in light of President Trump's remarks about the need for friendship rather than economic ties. The speakers critique the political dynamics between the two leaders and examine issues related to economic support, tariffs, and public health implications of gain-of-function research. By analyzing past administrations' approaches to such research, the chapter emphasizes the importance of transparency and effective regulation in biomedical practices.
