Book Synopsis Intent For A Nation: What is Canada For by : Michael Byers
Download or read book Intent For A Nation: What is Canada For written by Michael Byers and published by D & M Publishers. This book was released on 2012-01-06 with total page 3 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Intent for a Nation, Michael Byers argues that it is time for a clear-eyed appreciation of our strengths and weaknesses, of all we have and all we could be. A whole series of world events-the waning of US credibility; the increasing value of natural resources; the brain-gain; the ever-increasing interdependence of peoples, countries and continents-have combined to put Canada center stage in a new world order. Instead of emulating our increasingly isolated neighbor, we should be advancing the Canadian model, an idealistic, fiscally prudent, socially progressive vision that has never looked so good. Intent for a Nation is a fundamentally optimistic, informed and opinionated overview of where Canada stands in the world and what aggressive public policies are needed to carry the country forward in an ever more competitive and volatile world. Here is a book urging Canadians to rediscover their national self-confidence, to find the courage to dream great dreams-and make them happen.
Book Synopsis The True Spirit and Original Intent of Treaty 7 by : Walter Hildebrandt
Download or read book The True Spirit and Original Intent of Treaty 7 written by Walter Hildebrandt and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 1996 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are several historical accounts of the Treaty 7 agreement between the government and prairie First Nations but none from the perspective of the aboriginal people involved. In spite of their perceived silence, however, the elders of each nation involved have maintained an oral history of events, passing on from generation to generation many stories about the circumstances surrounding Treaty 7 and the subsequent administration of the agreement. The True Spirit and Original Intent of Treaty 7 gathers the "collective memory" of the elders about Treaty 7 to provide unique insights into a crucial historical event and the complex ways of the aboriginal people.
Book Synopsis Canada, Nation Branding and Domestic Politics by : Richard Nimijean
Download or read book Canada, Nation Branding and Domestic Politics written by Richard Nimijean and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-06-29 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After his Liberal Party’s surprise victory in the 2015 federal Canadian election, Justin Trudeau declared that "Canada was back" on the world stage. This comprehensive volume highlights issues in the relationship between articulated visions of Canada as a global actor, nation branding and domestic politics, noting the dangers of the politicization of the branding of Canada. It also provides the political context for thinking about ‘Brand Canada’ in the Trudeau era. The authors explore the Trudeau government’s embrace of political branding and how it plays out in key areas central to the brand, including: Canada’s relations with Indigenous peoples; social media and digital diplomacy; and the importance of the Arctic region for Canada’s brand, even though it is often ignored by politicians and policymakers. The book asks whether the Trudeau government has lived up to its claim that Canada is back, and highlights the challenges that emerge when governments provide optimistic visions for meaningful transformation, but then do not end up leading meaningful change. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of political science, particularly those with a focus on Canada. It was originally published as a special issue of Canadian Foreign Policy Journal.
Book Synopsis Merger Of The Century by : Diane Francis
Download or read book Merger Of The Century written by Diane Francis and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2013-09-27 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No two nations in the world are as integrated, economically and socially, as are the United States and Canada. We share geography, values and the largest unprotected border in the world. Regardless of this close friendship, our two countries are on a slow-motion collision course—with each other and with the rest of the world. While we wrestle with internal political gridlock and fiscal challenges and clash over border problems, the economies of the larger world change and flourish. Emerging economies sailed through the meltdown of 2008. The International Monetary Fund forecasts that by 2018, China's economy will be bigger than that of the United States; when combined with India, Japan and the four Asian Tigers—South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore and Hong Kong--China's economy will be bigger than that of the G8 (minus Japan). Rather than continuing on this road to mutual decline, our two nations should chart a new course. Bestselling author Diane Francis proposes a simple and obvious solution: What if the United States and Canada merged into one country? The most audacious initiative since the Louisiana Purchase would solve the biggest problems each country expects to face: the U.S.'s national security threats and declining living standards; and Canada's difficulty controlling and developing its huge land mass stemming from a lack of capital, workers, technology and military might. Merger of the Century builds both a strong political argument and a compelling business case, treating our two countries not only as sovereign entities but as merging companies. We stand on the cusp of a new world order. Together, by marshalling resources and combining efforts, Canada and America have a greater chance of succeeding. As separate nations, the future is in much greater doubt indeed.

Book Synopsis Diplomacy and Nation-Building in Africa by : Mélanie Torrent
Download or read book Diplomacy and Nation-Building in Africa written by Mélanie Torrent and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-04-11 with total page 379 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cameroon stands as a remarkable example of nation-building in the aftermath of European domination. Split between the French and British empires after World War I, it experienced a unique drive for self-determination at the turn of the 1960s, culminating in both independence from European power and the re-unification of two of its divided territories. This book investigates the influence of foreign policy on nation-building in West Africa in the context of both the Cold War and European integration. Shedding fresh light on the challenges of bridging the political, economic and linguistic divide that France and Britain had left, Melanie Torrent explores the evolution of a nation, charting both Cameroon's importance in Franco-British relations and Cameroon's use of bilateral and multilateral diplomacy in asserting its independence. This work should be essential reading for students of African studies, International Relations and the post-colonial world.
Download or read book Canadian Pacific written by M. C. Huhne and published by Callisto Publishers Gmbh. This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An unprecedented look at Canada's history presented in a spectacular, colorful book The history of Canada is inseparable from the history of Canadian Pacific. The company's advertising and publicity strategies and their influence on the country's perception can be regarded as a very early example of the concept of nation branding. The deep interdependence between a private company's economic and strategic interests and a newly formed nation's identity makes this arrangement unique. Canadian Pacific not only built the nation's first transcontinental railway, a prerequisite for Canada's political unification in the 19th century; it quickly expanded to become the world's largest transportation conglomerate that for many decades formed the backbone for Canada's economic development. Efficient railroad and global shipping services were complemented by numerous activities that attracted immigrants and tourists to Canada, including the famous landmark hotels designed in what is now referred to as Canadian Chateaux Style: Chateaux Frontenac, The Banff Springs Hotel, Chateaux Lake Louise, and many others. A distinct Canadian national identity was still in its infancy in the 19th century, and various stereotypes linked with Canada today are the direct result of decisions made by the designers and artists whose work is portrayed in the book and by Canadian Pacific's executives. In the context of these identity building processes the book showcases the significance of commercial art and advertising pointing far beyond their trivial function as promoters of a commodity or service.Professor Marc H. Choko's concise and compelling narrative is brought to life by more than 600 carefully selected historic photos, illustrations and documents that mirror Canadian Pacific's widespread activities and unusually diverse clientele, ranging from the adventurous travelers of the late 19th century to immigrants in search of a better future, from wealthy cruise passengers to big game hunters, from outdoor enthusiasts to airline customers starting in the 1940s.No expense has been spared to reproduce this critical part of Canadian history: the publisher sent their production manager to Canadian Pacific's corporate archives in Montreal to supervise digitalization and record the properties of the originals reproduced in this book, taking note of any special colours or other significant characteristics. Similarly, many museums and private collectors cooperated to allow for a book that reproduces all commercial art with unparalleled accuracy and vivacity. Conceived by internationally recognized art book publisher Callisto and designed by distinguished Berlin-based designer Yvonne Quirmbach, Canadian Pacific: Creating a Brand, Building a Nation was produced in a renowned printing facility in northern Italy on deluxe 200g Fedrigoni paper. The Premium Edition is also available as a Collector's Edition, limited to 999 copies and presented in a grand clamshell case hand-crafted in Berlin, Germany and designed by Yvonne Quirmbach, with a wood veneer cover symbolizing the natural beauty of Canada.

Book Synopsis Quitting the Nation by : Eric R. Schlereth
Download or read book Quitting the Nation written by Eric R. Schlereth and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2024-04-30 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perceptions of the United States as a nation of immigrants are so commonplace that its history as a nation of emigrants is forgotten. However, once the United States came into existence, its citizens immediately asserted rights to emigrate for political allegiances elsewhere. Quitting the Nation recovers this unfamiliar story by braiding the histories of citizenship and the North American borderlands to explain the evolution of emigrant rights between 1750 and 1870. Eric R. Schlereth traces the legal and political origins of emigrant rights in contests to decide who possessed them and who did not. At the same time, it follows the thousands of people that exercised emigration right citizenship by leaving the United States for settlements elsewhere in North America. Ultimately, Schlereth shows that national allegiance was often no more powerful than the freedom to cast it aside. The advent of emigrant rights had lasting implications, for it suggested that people are free to move throughout the world and to decide for themselves the nation they belong to. This claim remains urgent in the twenty-first century as limitations on personal mobility persist inside the United States and at its borders.
