The author takes you on a journey of political intrigue whereby Quebec achieves its independence in the year 2007. It is a convincing tale of political vengeance, intrigue, misunderstandings, foreign intervention, international muckracking, boundless egos, unbridled ambition, revenge, and political folly. A country admired by most for its tolerance and pragmatism is destroyed by internal strife and turmoil caused by unattended divisions and progressing socialism. A concerned and antagonistic neighbour acting on the doctrine of preserving democracy uses subversion and covert operations in order to undermine authority and order. Internally, a series of first minister's meetings and a constitutional conference fail creating an authority vacuum and generalized anxiety. Concurrently, the United States, the UK, and France interfere to prevent potential solutions from saving the country. The ultimate result is not at all what Quebecer's envisioned. It is however, an ending that many Canadians would come to accept as inevitable. As an alternative the author proposes two alternate endings resultant from the exercise of tolerance, good will, reasonable solutions to long standing problems, and a change in outlook from internal conflict and age old grievances to a future that engages in globilization and positive perspectives. The book is a realistic but harsh look at Canadian politics, told in a humerous satirical style, that reveals what can happen when a country fails to confront its history and relies on illusions and favoritism in order to quell discent. It is chilling to think of how easy it would really be for Canada to disintegrate.

Tony Benn is the longest serving MP in the history of the Labour Party. He left Parliament in 2001, after more than half a century in the House of Commons, to devote more time to politics. This volume of his Diaries describes and comments, in a refreshing and honest way, upon the events of a momentous decade including two world wars, a change of government in Britain and the emergence of New Labour, of which he makes clear he is not a member. Tony Benn's account is a well documented, formidable and principled critique of the New Labour Project, full of drama, opinion, humour, anecdotes and sparkling pen-portraits of politicians on both sides of the political divide. But his narrative is also broader and more revealing about day-to-day political life, covering many aspects normally disregarded by historians and lobby correspondents, relating to his work in the constituency, including his advice surgeries. This volume also offers far more of an insight into Tony Benn's personal life, his thoughts about the future and his relationship with his family, especially his remarkable wife Caroline, whose illness and death overshadow these years. Tony Benn is a unique figure on the British political landscape: a true democrat, a passionate socialist and diarist without equal. With this volume, his published Diaries cover British politics for over sixty years. It is edited, as are all others, by Ruth Winstone.
