Loyal to the Core: Stephen Harper, Me and the Ncc

Without question, Nicholls is one of Canada's most outspoken and articulate defenders of conservatism. For more than 20 years, Nicholls served as the political and communications strategist for the conservative organization, the National Citizens Coalition. For five of those years, he worked closely with the group's president, a man who would go on to become Canada's Prime Minister-Stephen Harper. Now, in his first book, Loyal to the Core, Nicholls reveals the story of how he went from being a friend and close ally of Harper's, to one of his most fierce and unrelenting critics. Nicholls provides a frank assessment of Stephen Harper the man, and Stephen Harper the leader, tracing his evolution from hardcore conservative ideologue to partisan, pragmatic politician. It is also a story of secret political meetings, clashing personalities and the lure of power. In addition to the candid portrait of Harper, Nicholls offers an unauthorized history of the National Citizens Coalition, Canada's largest independent, pro-free market organization. Who created this unique advocacy group and why? How did this organization, using political guerrilla warfare tactics, help change the face of Canada? We learn how the NCC fought to expose government waste and oppose arrogant politicians, how it battled both in the court of law and the court of public opinion to protect our most cherished individual freedoms. But most of all, Loyal to the Core is a cautionary tale for Canada's conservative movement. Principled conservatives must, says Nicholls, "resist the corrosive influence of partisan politics and focus on what matters: winning the war of ideas!"

As I See It

As I See It is Michael Coren's newest book. A collection of essays about the world and it's affairs. "These are my opinions of numberous subjects, issues, debates and people. The world, as it were, as I see it." Michael Coren. "Fearless. Unpredictable. Funny. Never boring. There's nobody and nothing like Michael Coren in journalism anywhere!" David Frum "Michael Coren is one of Canada's most supportive voices when it comes to repealing the censorship powers of Canada's human rights commissions. He had me on for two full-hour shows to promote my book, which is incredible, given the reach of his audience. And he's also interviewed great free speechniks like Mark Steyn. And now Michael has a new book out himself, called "As I See It". I've just ordered one myself and I'd encourage you to do the same." Ezra Levant

Standing on Guard for Thee: The Past, Present and Future of Canada's Christian Right is Dr. Michael Wagner's ground breaking history on Canadian Christians' influence over the political landscape of Canada. Many Canadians, including some Canadian Christians have the impression that the "Christian Right" in Canada is an American import.

A wonderful and insightful history of Canadian Christian activism and Canadian heritage. "Michael Wagner's valuable, original account of the Christian Right in Canada . . ."

The memoir of a South Asian immigrant to Canada, whose formative years in India were steeped in a reigning patriarchal culture of honour and shame, in which the burden of the family's good standing rests on the sexual purity of girls and women. The book traces the author's lonely, poignant, often risk-charged struggle to free herself from the oppressive code. As well, the book chronicles her courageous battle to help other South Asian girls and women in Canada step out of their kinsmen's ancient cultural cycle and claim their gender rights as fully equal Canadian citizens.

"The science is settled" has become both a mantra for political activists who believe in man-made global warming and a club to beat down anyone who opposes their anti-industrial, anti-capitalism agenda. But is it true? This is the question that David Solway set out to answer in layman terms. His conclusion: the preponderance of evidence refutes the activist's dogma. In Global Warning: The Trials of an Unsettled Science, Solway presents the "science" in a style suited to the average citizen who wants nothing more than to learn the truth.

This is a book written for a young audience about the life and story of J.R.R. Tolkein, the man who wrote so much, so well, for so many of us. The story of his beginnings, his middle and his end. A story of an ordinary man who did extraordinary things. A story of mothers and fathers, sons and daughters. A story of God, religion, happiness, suffering, friendship and genius. Oh, and the story of the The Lord of the Rings, which in spite of what some people might say, is considered by many if not most of us to be one of the greatest books ever written.

National officials, press barons, journalists, Internetians, "Human Rights" agencies, public intellectuals and a growing segment of the vox populi are tapping increasingly into the poisoned aquifer of anti-Jewish and anti-Zionist feeling. Yet what is perhaps even more disconcerting is the comparable attitude of many in the Jewish community today, mainly of the Left, who have made common cause with their enemies, defamers and traducers.  There is not much question that what we are observing is a pathology of the first magnitude, what the Talmudic sages called sin'at akhim, or brotherly hatred, an element of Jewish life sufficiently pronounced to merit a name of its own. This book redresses the cowardly rise of Jewish self-hatred.

Unveiled: A Canadian Muslim Woman's Struggle against Misogyny, Sharia and, Jihad, is the testimony of a Muslim woman's personal struggle to oppose radicalism and misogyny within her faith community. Farzana Hassan challenges the ideas that breed such pathologies among some of Islam's adherents. She denounces not just terrorism itself, but also excuses for it. Hassan investigates specific reasons behind the prevalent anti-Western sentiment among Muslims and attempts to dispel some of their misconceptions. She also speaks out against against brutal and misogynistic honour killings, and takes an honest look at political Islam and some of its pernicious symbols, such as the burka. The book is an earnest cry for reform within Islam and for all Muslims to reconcile their faith with life in the Canada of today.
