Enterprise 2000 explores an economic region stretching from Niagara Falls to Oakville (where the Toronto sprawl begins). 
This economic region takes in the political regions of Greater Hamilton, Halton and Niagara. With Hamilton at its core, the region encompasses over 1 million people and boasts a highly diversified economy. Enterprise 2000 looks at this region on the cusp of a new millennium and examines how a new generation is being prepared for challenges ahead. The book combines detailed text with stunning photography by Paul Sparrow. It's a perfect blend of a community coffee table book with a business book.

Quebec separatists have proven they'll stop at nothing in their quest to crush English language rights and turn a bilingual Canadian province into a French-only separate state. Quebec's provincial government alarmed many when it enacted its odious sing law restricting the use of English. Although this blatant human rights violation was struck down by the Supreme courts of Quebec and Canada, the provincial government enacted its sign law anyway. How? Quebec invoked its infamous Section 33 Notwithstanding Clause to overrule the highest courts in the land! Join renowned Canadian writer Michael B. Davie as he explores Quebec's controversial use of Section 33 - and the danger the Notwithstanding Clause poses to all Canadians.

History is invariably written from the perspective of the winners. But losers also have stories to tell. And there are valuable lessons to be learned from the defeated. Join author Michael B. Davie as he examines the meaning and significance of such diverse events as the l700s Acadian expulsion in Canada; Vietnam War and the defeat of Walter Mondale to Ronald Reagan in the United States; and the forced famines of the Ukrainian Holocaust. It's a fascinating look at those who faced life's trials - and came in second.

In crisis situations, aboriginal peoples in North America and elsewhere in the world have turned belief systems and values for spiritual guidance to help them cope with great change. Following The Great Spirit examines the ways in which these peoples have looked to their tribe's 'Great Spirit' to come to terms with turmoil and disruption in their societies. Author Michael B. Davie explores the Ghost Dance practiced by natives in the United States and Canada to over come the onslaught of change brought about by European settlement. Also explored are the supposedly bullet-proof Ghost Shirt; the rise and fall of native influence in the fur trade and the Gisara ceremony in which dancers are literally burned by their audience - an insightful look at belief systems that guide and shape whole societies.

Social Sciences

The government of the day enjoys enormous freedom to enact legislation and exert its will on the population. On the sidelines of political power are other players who struggle to make their voices heard. This book looks at three groups on the outside looking in: the media, the opposition Canadian Alliance Party and its forerunners; and women. The author examines the contribution made by each of these outsiders, the challenges they face and the limitations they encounter. He also explores the circumstances and conditions needed to increase their influence and ensure their distant voices are heard.

In the aftermath of 9-11, Canadians and the federal government opened their arms to the Americans. Given this outpouring of support, it would have been reasonable to expect trade relations would improve. But the US continued to punish the fair-trading Canadians. This book examines the rational behind this approach taken by the United States.
