This book offers an engaging insight into the European origins of the national values of Canadians and their future challenges. All those who read it will be drawn into discussion on what it means to be Canadian... Excellent! Timely! -- Raymond Chretien, Former Canadian Ambassador to the United States and France Canada's roots in European traditions remain more important than multicultural advocates allow. So argues Philip Resnick in a book well worth reading. Resnick has new things to say about the perennial question of the Canadian identity. -- John Richards, Simon Fraser University

The most articulate and controversial proponent of Euro-Canada is
Philip Resnick of the University of British Columbia, a scholar who
is well versed in the political ecologies of both English Canada
and Quebec. He [has published] an outspoken manifesto calling for a
European view of Canada.
