As the world moves forward, can Canada stay relevant while shackled to US foreign policy?

Freedom of contract. We sell them guns that kill them; they sell us drugs that kill us.

I think Canada's tethered to the US in more aspects than just foreign policy. If the picture depicts the two Korea's shaking hands, then one could say the US foreign policy/sanctions/rhetoric was successful, provided the posturing stops on both sides. That being said, I'm also unfamiliar with the context of the picture and any keynote deals that may have been reached.

Should we somehow include Trudeau in Canada's future relevance? We have two more years and then what? King Donald creates a North American Empire, instead of a union?

Nonsense. They're there in spite of not because of the machinations of the evil empire. Prior "liberal" govts. of SK have sought rapprochement with the north, this horrifies the hegemons of Wash.

A lot of American's are likely pissed at a North/South Korean unification.

Call me a skeptic, but just because Kim Jong Pork Bun is having photo ops doesn't mean much has changed.  The world has not moved forward as far as I can see.   There will be missile tests by the end of the year.

A lot of South Koreans are not too keen on having cousin Eddy move the motorhome into the driveway either.

I don't know what is huger.  The RV, the tank, or the owner of presumably both standing in the driveway.

(if this isn't somewhere in Merica, I will eat my shirt)

Bit of detective work  The tank is on a concrete pad, and there's a signpost in front of it.  The sign is oriented so that you would read the sign while looking at the tank.  So it's probably a memorial, or an installation at a park or military base.

Rumors of the big guy visiting Beijing in his bullet proof train. Could this be the start of something?
