Description
Canada's true identity is a subject of debate. Renowned thinker John Ralston Saul argues that Canada's history has been shaped by Aboriginal ideas, such as egalitarianism and negotiation over violence, which have had a profound impact on the country. Saul contends that an obstacle to Canada's progress lies in its ineffective elite, a business class that doesn't believe in the country. Recognizing these aspects of Canadian society is crucial for rethinking its future. This thought-provoking book invites readers to consider a new perspective on their nation and its place in the world.
