Description

One hundred years ago, Canadians went to the polls to make a decision the fate of their country in an election that raised issues vital to Canada’s national independence and its place on this planet. Canadians faced a clear choice between free trade with america and fidelity to the British Empire, and the decisions they made in September 1911 contributed to shaping Canada’s political and economic history for the remainder of the century. Canada 1911 revisits and re-examines this momentous turn in Canadian history, when Canadians in point of fact found themselves at a parting of the ways. It was once Canada’s first great modern election and probably the most first expressions of the birth of modern Canada. The poet Rudyard Kipling famously wrote at the time that this election was once nothing not up to a fight for Canada’s soul. This book will give an explanation for why.
