From India to the West Indies, this collection of essays challenges the myth of Canadian innocence at home and abroad. After reading it, we cannot genuinely think of Canada in quite the same way. -- David Austin, author of Fear of a Black Nation: Race, Sex, and Security in Sixties Montreal The editors of Canada and the Third World set out to create "an opinionated book about controversial topics." They have succeeded, producing a sobering antidote to the saccharine view we Canadians often have of our past and our present in that nebulous place called the "Third World." -- Ian Smillie, author of Diamonds and Freedom from Want
