MONTREAL – Former U.S. secretary of state Hillary Clinton says Canada has a key role to play as NATO braces for more developments linked to the crisis between Russia and Ukraine.
Speaking in Montreal on Tuesday, Clinton said Canada and the U.S. should work together to find a smart way to prevent more conflicts or a situation that gets out of control.
“I think Canada and the United States can inject some real thoughtful analysis as to how we can deter further aggression against free people,” Clinton said during a question-and-answer period that followed her speech to the Board of Trade of Metropolitan Montreal.
“A lot of your military leaders have played significant roles and I think we have to remain closely unified in trying to think of what happens next. How will we deal with what I’m afraid we’re in for, which is a lot of probing and testing.”

WELLINGTON, New Zealand – In another sign of growing economic ties, China on Wednesday allowed its currency to be directly traded with New Zealand’s.
New Zealand Prime Minister John Key announced the start of trading during a trip to China.
Previously, a company that needed to trade New Zealand dollars for Chinese yuan in China had to use a third currency, typically the U.S. dollar.
New Zealand allows open trading of its currency but China has strict capital controls which allow it to control the value of the yuan. It has previously allowed only five currencies to be directly traded with the yuan: the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, the Australian dollar, the Russian ruble and the Malaysian ringgit.
China is New Zealand’s largest export market. New Zealand in 2008 became the first developed nation to sign a free trade agreement with China.
Key said the move will make it easier for New Zealanders to do business in China and will stimulate trade and investment.
