Abstract

The article is devoted to the policies of Canadian Prime Minister Martin Brian Mulroney, who was in power from 1984 to 1993.

He left a significant mark on the political history of Canada and on the development of Canadian-American relations. Mulroney is considered one of the most controversial prime ministers of Canada, with his tenure marked by both notable achievements and significant failures. The publication is based on the memoirs of contemporaries and the assessments of Russian and Canadian experts.
