Description

Canada: A Very Short IntroductionCanada is not one nation, but three: English Canada, Quebec, and First Nations. Yet as a country Canada is very successful, in part because it maintains national diversity through bilingualism, multiculturalism, and federalism. Alongside this contemporary openness Canada also has its own history to contend with; with a legacy of broken treaties and residential schools for its Indigenous peoples, making reconciliation between Canada and First Nations

Canada is not one nation, but three: English Canada, Quebec, and First Nations. Yet as a country Canada is very successful, in part because it maintains national diversity through bilingualism, multiculturalism, and federalism. Alongside this contemporary openness Canada also has its own history to contend with; with a legacy of broken treaties and residential schools for its Indigenous peoples, making reconciliation between Canada and First Nations an ongoing journey, not a destination.

Drawing on history, politics, and literature, this Very Short Introduction starts at the end of the last ice age, when the melting of the ice sheets opened the northern half of North America to Indigenous peoples, and covers up to today's anthropogenic climate change, and Canada's climate politics. Donald Wright emphasizes Canada's complexity and diversity as well as its different identities and its commitment to rights, and explores its historical relationship to Great Britain, and its ongoing relationship with the United States. Finally, he examines Canada's northern realities and its northern identities.

Great wallet
Size: One Size, Color: Brown River Print
Nice quality wallet that holds all of my cards. It is thicker than I would have liked, but it is a good wallet. I like that it has two pockets for bills which is nice because I use other currencies. The card sleeves have three slots each. One sleeve on each half of the bifold and a middle one that flaps back and forth to show both sides. One side of the flap has the three card slots and the other side has the clear plastic for identification. There are also a sleeve under each of the three card slots. The wallet has a nice texture and a nice color. It feels pretty well-made and it seems like it would last a long time. It fits like any other bifold wallet.

Excelent quality
Size: One Size, Color: Black Passcase
I bought this Calvin Klein men’s wallet for my husband, and it exceeded our expectations. The leather feels premium and durable, with a sleek, minimalist design that matches any style. It’s compact enough to fit comfortably in his pocket, yet spacious enough for all his cards and cash. The stitching and logo details give it a touch of elegance without being flashy. After several weeks of use, it still looks brand new. Definitely worth the price — classic Calvin Klein quality and sophistication!

Wallet
Pretty nice wallet, good quality and little small if you have a lot of cards or cash, unfortunately there isn’t a I’d holder where it flips down so you have to dig it out of your pocket.
