Opis

The legacy of Jean Chretien, Canadian prime minster from 1993-2003, is difficult to assess in the context of the sponsorship scandal and the subsequent cloud of uncertainty surrounding the Liberal Party's electoral prospects. The contributors to this volume use their considerable experience and expertise as policy observers and critical thinkers to provide provocative essays that analyse Chretien's government and provide insights into Canadian politics and public policy. Contributors include Yasmeen Abu-Laban (Alberta), Caroline Andrew (Ottawa), Gerard W. Boychuk (Waterloo), Kathy Brock (Queen's), Stephen Clarkson (Toronto), David Docherty (Wilfrid Laurier), Alexandra Dobrowolsky (St Mary's), Christina Gabriel (Carleton), Ian Greene (York), Tom Keating (Alberta), Erick Lachapelle (Toronto), Laura MacDonald (Carleton), Michael Murphy (Otago, New Zealand), Steve Patten (Alberta), Michael J. Prince (Victoria), Reg Whitaker (York and Victoria), and Robert Young (Western Ontario).
