About this ebook
Questions and concerns regarding the scope and depth of Canada’s relationship with the United States loom larger than ever since 9/11. In Whose Canada?, contributors provide a comprehensive analysis of the legacy of free trade and examine the challenges that deepening bilateral integration – including its latest incarnation in the Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America (SPP) – presents for Canadian sovereignty and public policy autonomy. They focus on trade and economics, politics, public policy, social policy, labour, health care, education, local government, minority rights, military and security, foreign policy, culture, law, Quebec, environment, energy, and civil society. The authors share their scepticism regarding corporate Canada’s continental agenda and Ottawa’s deepening linkages with Washington. In response to the question “Whose Canada?” they forcefully argue that Canada’s future must be shaped by the whole of its citizenry rather than a determined elite. To this end, they advance a practical vision for revitalizing democracy and upholding the public good.
