The Ambassador

Olivia Winters, a former actor turned savvy-yet-unorthodox diplomat, and her childhood best friend Andrea Taylor, a sharp, policy-driven Chargé d’Affaires, are sent to the hinterland of global diplomacy to uncover new business opportunities for Canada in a rapidly shifting world. Tasked with doing more with less, and operating far from the polished centers of power, Olivia and Andrea rely on bold instincts, chaotic brilliance, and uniquely Canadian workarounds to punch far above their weight. Under constant scrutiny from Ottawa, the duo turns diplomatic afterthoughts into surprising wins, even while skating on very thin ice.
