Synopsis

This revealing book chronicles the journey of Canadian nationhood through the complexities of confederation and its lasting impact on the country's unity. The author argues that Canada's historical dependence on its provinces and other countries has hindered the development of a distinct national identity. However, the book also highlights the resilience of the Canadian spirit, noting the preservation of French-Canadian culture and institutions within the confederation. Exploring the growth of government responsibilities and the tensions between the Dominion and provinces in modern times, the book concludes with a discussion of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for Canadian unity.
