Download or read book The Truth about Trudeau written by Bob Plamondon and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2013-05-09 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finally, after over 30 years of hagiographies, comes a book that sets the record straight and tells us the truth about Pierre Elliott Trudeau. In this unprecedented and meticulously researched sweep of the record, Globe and Mail bestselling author Bob Plamondon challenges the conventional wisdom that Trudeau was a great prime minister. With new revelations, fresh insights, and in-depth analysis, Plamondon reveals that the man did not measure up to the myth. While no one disputes Trudeau's intelligence, toughness, charisma, and the flashes of glamour he brought Canada, in the end the pirouettes were not worth the price.
Book Synopsis Extraordinary Canadians Pierre Elliott Trudeau by : Nino Ricci
Download or read book Extraordinary Canadians Pierre Elliott Trudeau written by Nino Ricci and published by Penguin Canada. This book was released on 2009-03-31 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love him or hate him, Pierre Trudeau has marked us all. The man whose motto was "reason over passion" managed to arouse in Canadians the fiercest of passions of every hue, ones that even today cloud our view of him and of his place in history. Acclaimed novelist Nino Ricci takes as his starting point the crucial role Trudeau played in the formation of his own sense of identity to look at how Trudeau expanded us as a people, not in spite of his contradictions but because of them.
Download or read book Just Watch Me written by John English and published by Vintage Canada. This book was released on 2010-09-07 with total page 834 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This magnificent second volume, written with exclusive access to Trudeau’s private papers and letters, completes what the Globe and Mail called “the most illuminating Trudeau portrait yet written” — sweeping us from sixties’ Trudeaumania to his final days when he debated his faith. His life is one of Canada’s most engrossing stories. John English reveals how for Trudeau style was as important as substance, and how the controversial public figure intertwined with the charismatic private man and committed father. He traces Trudeau’s deep friendships (with women especially, many of them talented artists, like Barbra Streisand) and bitter enmities; his marriage and family tragedy. He illuminates his strengths and weaknesses — from Trudeaumania to political disenchantment, from his electrifying response to the kidnappings during the October Crisis, to his all-important patriation of the Canadian Constitution, and his evolution to influential elder statesman.
Download or read book The Sixties written by Dimitry Anastakis and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2008 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who did not live through the experience of the Sixties, it is often difficult to comprehend this tumultuous period. Even those who lived though the era and have studied the Sixties have wrestled with its deeper meaning. While the Sixties ultimate "meaning" remains elusive, there can be no doubt that the period's transformative effect upon Canadians - culturally, politically, and economically - was immense. From arts and architecture to politics and protest, the decade has attained near-mythical status, leaving an undeniable influence on virtually every aspect of Canadian life. The images, sounds, and tastes of the decade remain an indelible part of our own twenty-first-century experience, yet for a decade that remains so well defined within the public memory, the Sixties left behind an ambiguous historic legacy for those who study the period. Taking a multidisciplinary approach that includes history, architecture, art, political science and journalism, this volume provides fresh new perspectives on Canada's loudest, liveliest, and most debated period. Four decades after Canada's own Expo 67 "summer of love", this timely book explores issues from dope, de Gaulle, and driver education, to Trudeau, Vietnam, and Africville, all thought the colourful kaleidoscope of the Sixties..
Download or read book Trudeaumania written by Paul Litt and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 425 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1968, Canadians dared to take a chance on a new kind of politician. Pierre Trudeau became the leader of the Liberal Party in April and two months later won the federal election. His meteoric rise to power was driven by Trudeaumania, an explosive mix of passion and fear fueled by media hype and nationalist ambition. This book traces what happened when the fabled spirit of the sixties met the excitement of the Centennial and Expo 67. Canadians wanted to modernize their nation, differentiate it from the US, and defuse Quebec separatism. Far from being a sixties crazy moment, Trudeaumania was a passionate quest for a new Canada that would define the values of Canadians for decades to come.

Download or read book Peter Gzowski written by R.B. Fleming and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2010-08-27 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in 1934, Peter Gzowski covered most of the last half of the century as a journalist and interviewer. This biography, the most comprehensive and definitive yet published, is also a portrait of Canada during those decades, beginning with Gzowski's days at the University of Toronto's The Varsity in the mid 1950s, through his years as the youngest-ever managing editor of Maclean's in the 1960s and his tremendous success on CBC's Morningside in the 1980s and 1990s, and ending with his stint as a Globe and Mail columnist at the dawn of the 21st century and his death in January 2002. Gzowski saw eight Canadian Prime Ministers in office, most of whom he interviewed, and witnessed everything from the Quiet Revolution in Québec to the growth of economic nationalism in Canada's West. From the rise of state medicine to the decline of the patriarchy, Peter was there to comment, to resist, and to participate. Here was a man who was proud to call himself Canadian and who made millions of other Canadians realize that Canada was, in what he claimed was a Canadian expression, not a bad place to live.
