With this provocative and important book, Kim Nossal has begun an essential debate. * John English, co-chair, Canadian International Council, and founding director, Bill Graham Centre * Nossal’s thoughtful book is a wake-up call for Canadians, who must prepare to confront an illiberal and inward-looking neighbour. * Kenneth Holland, former president, Association for Canadian Studies in the United States * A concise, compelling, and very concerning analysis of the challenges that Canada — and the West as a whole — face from the ongoing Trumpian crisis in American politics. * Hugh White, emeritus professor of strategic studies, Australian National University * Kim Nossal delivers a dystopian vision of a world that might have already begun. Nossal’s book is also a fun, rollicking read. He compiles the best of mainstream media and academic analysis and throws in surprisingly colourful adjectives about the Trump Presidency. * Kerry Buck, former Canadian ambassador to NATO * This book surveys the state of global affairs in early 2023 and makes informed predictions. Recommended for all political science and global studies collections. * Library Journal * Nossal sketches a dark vision of the world we face if American global leadership continues. * Quill & Quire *
