Description
Simpson examines the leaders we chose and why, from the legacies of the Trudeau years to the rise of the Reform party. Here are devastating portraits of our politicians—from Brian Mulroney’s farewell world tour and the wholesale destruction of the Conservative party to the anointing of St. Lucien as patron saint of Quebec.
