If you want a less biased book then I recommend Canada vs United States: How Canada is So Much Better than America
I’m kind of meh on Freeland overall, but I think her perspective on the subject of the US could be very interesting given her experiences.
That would be fine if the book was to be an objective, historical approach. But how likely do you think that is, as opposed to a self-serving screed to push her own agenda?
Are we going to get an honest critique of the Liberal politicians with whom she worked and politicked? An exposé of things that should have been but weren’t, or that shouldn’t have been but were? People who should or shouldn’t have been successful, in either case to the detriment of the country?
Put simply, I don’t see that there could possibly be anything of value in this kind of first-person account.
Perhaps the “could” in my comment is doing more work than you are comfortable with.
I largely agree with you, other than being unwilling to count chickens before they hatch. e.g. While I haven’t read it, from talking to some who have I understand that Jodie Wilson-Raybould’s memoir was pretty hard hitting.
She’s already got her next gig lined up, it has nothing to do with Canadian government, and she’s nearly 60. Who knows, maybe she’s hit her “fuck it” moment. Maybe not. I’m willing to wait until October to judge.
I have a lot more respect fory Jodie W-R’s integrity than Christian F’s.
That’s fair.
The person who kept on saying Canada needs closer ties to Israel while they were ethnically cleansing and killing medics in 2019?
She is very much the center to right liberal that we should not be listening to and she’s definitely not the one to listen to just because she was in a few discussions regarding the last USMCA deal that she quit from.
I don’t care much for money-grab books like the one she wrote praising her Nazi collaborator grandfather.
