Abstract
This paper attempts to trace the nature of the growth of Canadian foreign policy toward the Middle East over a period of 22 years. The major argument is that Canada developed a Middle East policy indirectly through the United Nations rather than on the basis of state-to-state relations. This policy may be analyzed in the context of the following : (i) United Nations conflict resolution procedures; (ii) great-power politics; (iii) Canada's relations with its three major allies, the US, Britain and France; (iv) subsequent to 1955-56, Canada's commercial and diplomatic stateto-state relationships with countries in the area. In this essay, the period under review (1945-67) is divided into following three phases, (i) 1945-48 : The significant aspect of this period was the emergence of the United Nations, and Canada's adherence to its Charter. Canada as a middle power began to develop a mediatory role and part of its initial experience in the United Nations related to the conflict regarding the partition of Palestine, (ii) 1948-55 : During this period, the changing strategies of the superpowers, in the context of the Palestine Partition plan, undermined the ability of the United Nations to maintain peace. The substance of the discussion concerning this period will therefore deal with the impact of great-power politics on Canada's mediatory behavior in the United Nations, (iii) 1956-67 : The Suez crisis and the formation of UNEF marked a turning point in Canada s Middle East policy. The stationing of its troops under UNEF provided Canada with a direct military presence in the area. However, the withdrawal of the UNEF in 1967 was a severe setback
