Title
Becoming Canada: Our Story, Our Politics, Our Future,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In this passionate, thoughtprovoking vision for Canada, Ken Dryden argues that we have paid a price for having the wrong sense of ourselves as a country. The old definition of Canada genial but sometimes too selfdeprecating and ambitionkilling is no longer the real story. Through recent global events such as Barack Obamas election and first year in office; the climate conference in Copenhagen; and even the 2010 Winter Olympics, Dryden explores the clash between politics and story, and the importance of a nation finding its true narrative in order to thrive.By tracing the ups and downs in contemporary Canadian politics, from the Liberal leadership race to Stephen Harpers Conservative minority governments, Michael Ignatieffs appointment as Opposition leader, and prorogation, Ken Dryden presciently identifies the obstacles facing Canada. He observes a sea change taking place among Canadians, who want something more for their country. The ambition of Canadas policies and the nature of our politics will not change, Dryden says, until we conceive of a new story for the nation.Becoming Canadais at once a celebration of Canada and a timely, ardent rallying cry to all Canadians to build upon Canadas unique place in the world. It is certain to inspire new conversations about our Canadas identity at home and abroad.
