Published in 1991 at time of political turmoil, Debating Canada's Future offers varying leftist perspectives on the crucial issues of the day. The book is structured around eight issues—public ownership, the social contract, international trade, the environment, child care, reproductive technology, defence and Quebec's future—and in each case two differing perspectives are offered by contributors who share a leftist approach. The contributors are Henry Milner, Arthur Milner, Leo Panitch, Donald Swartz, John Calvert, John Richards, Manfried Boienefeld, David Wolfe, David Brooks, Roberts Paehlke, Ted Schrecker, Sue Colley, David Hagerman, Diana Majury, Christine Overall, John-Paul Harney, Reg Whitaker, Desmond Morton and Ernie Regehr. This book was conceived to offer its readers access to major debates within the Canadian left on topics of major importance to public policy.
