The close result of the October '95 referendum in Quebec has more people than ever asking: if Canada is divisible, why not Quebec? The question of partition is one of those rare issues that could really change the political and geographic landscapes of Quebec. This straightforward account of the history and future of the idea of partition will be an invaluable resource for those who want to understand the pros, cons, and various possibilities of the partition option. McAlpine argues that Quebec cannot separate from Canada and expect to retain its present borders. The Partition Principle is not an analysis of the Quebec separation movement, nor does it explore what, if any, modifications are needed to the Canadian constitution or governmental administrative arrangements to "renew federalism." In exploring the partition option, McAlpine neither seeks to legitimize brinkmanship games nor puts forth a call to arms. He simply examines partition as a strategy to be enacted only if all other strategies to unite Canada fail. He maps out the specifics of how Quebec might be partitioned in the event of separation, and devotes special attention to aboriginal land claims and the status of Montreal. The merits of the partition principle must be debated now, while we still have the time and energy to do so. As McAlpine says, the eve of a referendum or an election is a poor time to explore options for the future of this country.

So begins this collection of Stéphane Dion's speeches from 1996 to 1998. Organized around four central themes, Straight Talk shows the breadth and strength of Dion's convictions. Dion believes that Canada is first and foremost a nation of caring people, in contrast to the image projected by the endless, dry constitutional debate. He argues that the melding of diversity and unity that is the basis of this nation is possible only because of the particular federalism that Canadians have invented. This federalism, however, is far from perfect and it is the responsibility of government to continue to work to improve it, always remembering that its core must be the quality of service it provides to Canadians. Dion believes that the Quebec question is not a constitutional question but one that concerns identity: many francophones believe that their identity and culture are not respected in the rest of Canada and see the anglophone majority as a force for assimilation, while many in other provinces feel that separatists do not share the same values of openness and tolerance. He believes strongly that the secession process the Parti Québecois has proposed - effecting independence on the basis of incorrect legal theory, an unclear referendum question, and a majority of fifty percent plus one - is difficult to reconcile with democracy and raises questions that must be discussed openly and resolved democratically. Straight Talk is a refreshingly honest and frank discussion about a matter that has been at the forefront of Canadian's thoughts for too many years.

"For close to forty years Canadian politics has been dominated by the struggle for 'national unity'. And yet today Canada is more deeply divided than ever. Even after the shock of the 1995 referendum, in which Quebec almost voted for sovereignty, our political leaders are unable to bring the country together. How could things have gone so wrong? Misconceiving Canada argues that in fact the national unity strategy itself is the cause of the present impasse. Whereas in the 1960s the rise of Quebec nationalism prompted all three federal parties to look for ways to accommodate Quebec's aspirations, by the end of the decade a new strategy had taken hold, under the leadership of Pierre Trudeau. Quebeckers were to be integrated with the rest of Canada through a new conception of the country based on official bilingualism, a charter of rights, multiculturalism, and the equality of the provinces. Ottawa would become a truly 'national' government. In the end, as this book shows, the Trudeau strategy failed to change Quebeckers' perception of themselves as a distinct collectivity within Canada. But, ironically, it has changed the way that Canadians outside Quebec see their country. Many of them are now committed to a vision of Canada which applies the principle of equality in ways that make impossible even the slightest accommodation of Quebec's aspirations. The author concludes that only by abandoning the Trudeau vision and recapturing the spirit of the 1960s can Canadians hope to unite their country." --
