What is Canada for?

A new issue of the Canadian Inroads is out. From Adbusters, an article on the death of Canadian journalism. From LRC, a review of Intent for a Nation: What Is Canada For? by Michael Byers. A review of Emperor of the North: Sir George Simpson and the Remarkable Story of the Hudson's Bay Company by James Raffan. A review of Stupid to the Last Drop: How Alberta Is Bringing Environmental Armageddon to Canada (And Doesn't Seem to Care) by William Marsden. A place apart: Heard the one about the rich Newfoundlander? For challenging a policy that discriminated against certain refugees, a federal employee’s career was ruined, but despite being cleared, he still awaits justice.
