Paddling with the current

Description:

"From the moment of his election in 1968 until his retirement in 1984, Pierre Elliot Trudeau dominated Canadian politics and shaped our institutions. In many ways - through his comments on the Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords, for example - he has continued to wield extraordinary influence."--BOOK JACKET. "Claude Couture describes our inheritance from the Trudeau era as fractured between notions of collectivity and individual rights. Couture dissects this seeming paradox by examining the very nature of Trudeau's liberalism."--BOOK JACKET.
