Before an elite audience of 650 representing government, judicial, academic, corporate and military professions, he launched a stirring defence of the nation he served for five decades. His bracing acceptance speech at the Canadian Museum of History in Gatineau warned that the principles he was being celebrated for protecting were under assault as never before. Canada was abandoning its history, its civil liberties, its fiscal prudence, its concern for the vulnerable, and its commitment to global stability--things that had long made it not only a great place to live but an important member of the family of nations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standing ovation Maisonneuve received that night was followed the next morning by calls for his cancellation. His stalwart defence of his views and his courage in speaking out where others dared not have since earned him the nickname \"the anti-woke general\" and made him a folk hero among Canadians tired of apologizing for their country.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eIn Defence of Canada\u003c\/i\u003e is one warrior's heartfelt rallying cry for Canadians to face the reality of their country's decline, recommit to principles of peace, order and good government, and build for the benefit of future generations a tolerant and diverse nation with boundless potential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 174\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.7 x 0 x 0 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 08, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48501964079353,"sku":"9781990823954","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/8BQLHOEgpn9781990823954.webp?v=1780956716","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/in-defence-of-canada-reflections-of-a-patriot-hardcover","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
