How relevant is Canada?

No it’s not. Canada is pretty much overshadowed by the US on the global stage in most aspects I can think of. Finance is one.

Like I said, this is not necessarily a bad thing. Seems like the US is going into another crisis every month.

I’m surprised by the push back on this. Most Canadians seem to agree and understand what I mean. I could say that Taiwan is pretty irrelevant even though in some aspects it punches above its weight for a tiny island. On paper, Taiwan does matter. But I’m not under the illusion that people around the world follow Taiwan closely even though I think they should more than ever with geopolitics.
