# 2 And Trying Harder ! Why Canadian Business Accounts Receivable Financing Is Your Cash Flow

We probably all remember the car rental company commercial… they were ‘ # 2 and trying harder ‘ … that certainly could describe business accounts receivable financing in Canada – your company’s 2nd alternative to cash flow financing after the bank.

So why is # 2 and trying harder gaining so much momentum from Canadian business owners and financial managers? Its pretty simple, it becomes the de facto alternative for businesses that can’t achieve the financing they need from what the industry terms ‘ traditional sources ‘.

So let’s examine some key basics around how the financing works, and also let’s differentiate it from bank working capital financing… the proverbial business line of credit.

What drives an approval and the ongoing operation of a bank line of credit that is collateralized by your receivables? Of course it’s the size of your A/R base, but at the same time other key factors must come into play. The onus is on your firm to show profitability, debt and equity ratios that work for the bank, as well as more often than not emphasis on personal guarantees and even outside collateral.

However, business accounts receivable financing (aka ‘ invoice discounting ‘ ‘ factoring’) focuses solely on one thing – your receivables. The size of your A/R as well as its general quality essentially determines the size of your new accounts receivable financing facility.

The second key difference in comparing the two is that the bank in effect collateralizes your receivables by registering a security agreement against them. They are in effect ‘ assigned ‘ to the bank in the event of a default by your firm.

Business receivable financing however works differently, and that’s quite often mis understood by many Canadian business owners and financial mangers. Under this process you derive cash flow, on a daily basis if you choose, by selling your receivables to the finance firm, in whole, or in part, on an ongoing basis.

That A/R is sold at a discounted price, which in effect becomes your financing fee. (Many customers view this as the interest rate – the industry views it as a discounted purchase from you at a pre determine rate, usually 2-3% per month. So we can also make the statement that the a/r financing process, non bank in nature is a three way agreement, its between yourself, your customer, and your a/r finance partner firm .

Because Canadian banks are highly regulated and generally risk averse they cannot provide the amount of financing that thousands of small to medium sized firms need for working capital. But since the business A/R financing firm is focusing solely on the assets, i.e. your A/R, they can generally advance up to 90% of all your A/R at any given time. So, bottom line, your company doesn’t have to have the capital structure that is required for traditional Canadian chartered bank financing.

In many cases clients are please to hear that their inventory can also be combined into a one stop revolving credit facility by your non bank partner firm. This provides a revolving line of credit with much more liquidity than your firm may have experienced in the past – bottom line – more access to cash flow and day to day working capital for operations and growth.

Clients are generally mystified by the number of firms out there that offer this financing, what they charge, how they work on a daily basis, etc. We recommend they consider a confidential invoice financing facility, one that allows them to bill and collect their own receivables without any third party knowledge, including your customers! Speak to a trusted, credible and experienced Canadian business financing advisor on how business A/R financing can enhance your company’s cash flow today.

The Canadian Small Business Owner’s Guide to Financial Independence $16.95 According to a study released by the CIBC, 500,000 Canadian small business owners are planning to retire over the next five years. Another 750,000 are expected to retire by 2020. The Canadian Small Business Owner’s Guide to Financial Independence addresses the unique transition needs of small business owners and independent professionals. This group cannot simply attend a retirement dinner and leave work; there is a business to manage and a business to sell, and there are no systems in place for deferred consumption such as a pension plan. In addition, increased cash flow and asset sales create more complexity in tax planning and cash flow management. In 2004, nearly 2.5 million Canadians were self-employed, making up more than 15% of the overall workforce, yet these professionals are on their own when it comes to planning and managing the transition process to retirement. This book places them in the driver’s seat, allowing them to take control and create the transition they want on their terms.

Everything I Needed to Know about Business … I Learned from a Canadian – Leonard Brody – Paperback $22.95 Everything I Needed to Know about Business … I Learned from a Canadian

What Is a Canadian? $13.99 Each of these essays begins with the words “A Canadian is . . .”. Each one is very different, producing a fascinating book for all thinking Canadians. Irvin Studin is an idealistic young Canadian who wanted to do something extraordinary for his country. So he decided to approach leading Canadians — he calls them “sages” — to tell us what they believe defines us. The people who responded eagerly, to produce an essay of 1,500 to 2,000 words, are, in his words, “all distinguished Canadian thinkers and achievers from all walks of life — politics, the civil service, academia, literature, journalism, business, the arts — from both official language groups, and from all regions of the country, as well as from the Canadian diaspora.” The strength of this book lies in the contributors, listed in the sidebar. The variety ranges from the funny — “A Canadian is . . . someone who crosses the road to get to the middle” (Allan Fotheringham) through the hostile — “. . . the citizen of a country badly in need of growing up” (William Watson) through the surprising — “. . . adaptable. To illustrate, consider the depth and breadth of the Canadian woman’s wardrobe” (Jennifer Welsh) or celebratory — “. . . a wonderful thing to be” (Bob Rae). A Canadian is . . . certain to find this book fascinating.

Halfway through the show, his life was changed forever. 57 Hours is Nedkov’’s harrowing account of being trapped between two immovable and unpredictable forces: inside the theatre, suicidal Chechen rebels, loaded with explosives, demanded an end to the bloody civil war that was ravaging Chechnya; outside, Russian special forces prepared to storm the theatre, refusing to negotiate with the rebels. Through fifty-seven hours of fear and fatigue, Nedkov discovered courage and ingenuity he never knew he had. Here he takes us into the maelstrom of the civil war that still plagues Russia.

As the first manager and employee, and ultimately the CEO, of fledgling Recreational Equipment, Inc. (REI), he guided the company through years of record-setting growth. He guided Bobby Kennedy up the newly named Mount Kennedy, helping him to become the first person to summit the Canadian peak. He led the historic International Peace Climb, which put climbers from the U.S., Russia, and China on the summit of Everest in the name of world peace.Jim Whittaker’s achievement on Everest and his many successes before and after are the natural outcome of a life driven by a passion for outdoor adventure combined with strong leadership qualities and a commitment to making a difference.

Auto Pact: Creating a Borderless North American Auto Industry, 1960-1971 $29.07 The 1965 Canada-United States Automotive Trade agreement fundamentally reshaped relations between the automotive business and the state in both countries and represented a significant step toward the creation of an integrated North American economy. Breaking from previous conceptions of the agreement as solely a product of intergovernmental negotiation, Dimitry Anastakis’ Auto Pact argues that the ‘big three’ auto companies played a pivotal role – and benefited immensely – in the creation and implementation of this new automotive regime. With the border effectively erased by the agreement, the pact transformed these giant enterprises into truly global corporations. Drawing from newly released archival sources, Anastakis demonstrates that, for Canada’s automotive policy makers, continentalism was a form of economic nationalism. Although the deal represented the end of any notion of an indigenous Canadian automotive industry, significant economic gains were achieved for Canadians under the agreement. Anastakis provides a fresh and alternative view of the auto pact that places it firmly within contemporary debates about the nature of free trade as well as North American – and, indeed, global – integration. Far from being a mere artefact of history, the deal was forebearer to what is now known as ‘globalization.’

Been There, Done That: Through Treacherous Skies $18.54 According to Lieutenant General Bill Carr, an ex-Commander of Canada’s Air Command, and himself a decorated WWII Spitfire pilot: This book contains the most vivid, uncomplaining and honest descriptions I have ever read of what the WWII Bomber Command aircrews went through during the years 1939-1945 when they delivered no less than one-and-a-quarter million tons of bombs on Hitler’s empire. From 1943 onward, the US Army Air Corps added a further three-quarter million tons to this total. And those young aircrew suffered incomparable losses. It is the gripping life story of a decorated Air Navigator who, with his crew in a Lancaster, did a tour of operations in a Canadian squadron of RAF Bomber Command in WWII, spending nine months in the front lines. There are tales of night raids to Southeast Germany and 6 raids to Berlin. This milieu had up to 1 million personnel, 20,625 guns, 6,680 searchlights and about 400 fighters, a formidable barrier across Western Germany and around the targets, all with the prime purpose of frustrating the efforts to bomb, shooting down aircraft and killing crews being their preferred outcome. The tour terminated with bombing raids in France preparing for the invasion of Normandy. There are also interesting details of cultural life on the base, and in wartime Great Britain. In addition, the life and times of growing up in New Brunswick, Canada in the 1920s are included, as well as stories of pre-war employment. There are also post-war stories of managing the family business, returning to the RCAF as a construction engineer, time as General Manager of the RCAF Association and proprietorship of Unique Decor Unlimited. Stories of retirement includemuch about worldwide travel. Once you start reading, you’ll find it so interesting you’ll be reluctant to put it down!

Before Lewis and Clark: The Story of the Chouteaus, the French Dynasty That Ruled America’s Frontier $33 Shortly after Meriweather Lewis reached St. Louis in 1803 to plan for his voyage to the Pacific with William Clark, he prepared his first packet of flora and fauna from west of the Mississippi and dispatched it to President Jefferson. The cuttings, which were later planted in Philadelphia and Virginia, were supplied by Lewis’s new French friend Pierre Chouteau, who took them from a tree growing in the garden of his mansion. One of the best-known families in French America, the Chouteaus had guarded the gates to the West for generations and had built fortunes from fur trading, land speculation, finance, and railroads, and from supplying anything needed to survive in the region between the Mississippi River and the Rocky Mountains. From their St. Louis base, the Chouteaus conquered the two-thousand-plus-mile length of the Missouri River, put down the first European roots at the future site of Kansas City and in present-day Oklahoma, and left their names and imprints on lands stretching to the Canadian border. Before Lewis and Clark: The Story of the Chouteaus, the French Dynasty That Ruled America’s Frontier is the extraordinary story of a wealthy, powerful, charming, and manipulative family who dominated business and politics in the Louisiana Purchase territory before the famous Lewis and Clark expedition, and for decades afterward.

Through a rhetorical analysis of the speeches and letters of chief executive officers, annual reports to shareholders, press releases, and company newsletters and websites, Amernic and Craig show that CEOs are elitist and exclusionary propagators of an often biased stream of discourse. CEO-Speak explores the metaphors and persuasive strategies used by corporate leaders at Enron, Microsoft, AOL-TimeWarner, General Electric, IBM, Nortel, Canadian National Railways, Andersen, Disney, and Alcan-Pechiney-Alusuisse. Amernic and Craig find that CEO-speak evokes an ideology of neo-liberalism, extreme individualism, hyper-competition, and global capitalism. They examine the internet as a powerful new platform for CEO-speak and show that CEOs are frequently presented as heroes engaged in the war of business who can effect astonishing miracles of financial performance and re-invention. In contesting the notion that accounting is objective, CEO-Speak serves as an introduction to the fundamental controversies and ambiguities in corporate accountability and provides rich examples of the excesses of corporate communication. The authors argue that the language of CEOs raises alarm bells regarding the ethos of corporate leadership and urge the business press, academia, and the accounting and auditing community to take a more critical approach.

Dictionary of Canadian Biography: 1921 to 1930 $110.45 This new volume of the Dictionary of Canadian Biography/Dictionnaire biographique du Canada (DCB/DBC) presents well-written, carefully documented, and meticulously edited biographies of Canadians from all walks of life. Its literary and scholarly standards make it, like its predecessors, the definitive biographical reference for its period of history. The 619 biographies by 446 authors present a panoramic view of the origins of modern Canada, its political landscapes, economic changes, educational institutions, cultural developments, and athletic achievements. The volume’s coverage is inclusive, ranging from murderers to artists, from business magnates to religious leaders, from Canada’s First Peoples to new immigrants. There are labour leaders, farmers, feminists, and naturalists, as well as prominent leaders in all aspects of Canadian life. The dominant theme of this volume is the emergence of a country engrossed by material gains and aware of broadening horizons. Sir Clifford Sifton, federal minister of the interior, Sir Lomer Gouin, premier of Quebec, and Sir Robert Bond, premier of Newfoundland, symbolize this age of development. The lives of Sir Adam Beck, father of Ontario Hydro, Gordon Morton McGregor, founder of the Ford Motor Company of Canada, and Alexander Graham Bell, inventor of the telephone, illustrate how new technologies harnessed natural energy sources and created new ways to communicate. Such innovations drove the transformation of Canada in the early years of the twentieth century. An expanding nation required thousands of new people to answer the demands of the agricultural enterprises in the west, the manufacturing industries of central Canada, and the fishing andlumbering businesses of British Columbia and the Atlantic region. Many newcomers were drawn from eastern Europe and Asia as well as the British Isles and western Europe, traditionally the homelands of new Canadians.

Ganongs $24.95 Ganongs: A Sweet History of Chocolate is the lusciously illustrated story of a family-owned business that rediscovered its niche in a world dominated by huge corporations. In 1873, James and Gilbert Ganong opened a tiny grocery store; since then, five generations of Ganongs have transformed that fledgling business into one of the world’s leading candy-makers. The creator of the all-day sucker, chicken bones, and the world’s first five-cent chocolate nut bar, Ganongs cheered up Depression-era sweethearts with the heart-shaped chocolate box. They pioneered streetcar ads, trading cards, and exquisitely designed and rendered advertising. Delecto chocolates have been Canadian favourites for a full century, the boxes becoming treasures in themselves. Photographs of this colourful memorabilia, of candy making, and of the factory itself make Gangongs: A Sweet History of Chocolate a showcase of Ganongs’ sweet tradition of excellence.

Globalization Unplugged: Sovereignty and the Canadian State in the Twenty-First Century $16 The debate over economic globalization has reached a fever pitch in the past decade and a half with Western governments and multinational corporations trumpeting its virtues and a multitude of activists and developing-world citizens vociferously denouncing it. Both sides would agree that globalization is a recent development that is changing the way people and nations do business, but in Globalization Unplugged, Peter Urmetzer questions whether national economies are losing their sovereignty and whether the topic of globalization merits as much discussion as it receives. Urmetzer’s focus is specifically on Canada and he demonstrates that current levels of trade are not unprecedented and, further, that as the economy becomes more service oriented, it will also become less trade dependent. He points out that only a relatively small percentage of Canada’s wealth is owned by foreign investors and likewise, only a small portion of the country’s wealth is located outside of its borders. Disputing claims that the nation-state is weakening or disappearing altogether, Urmetzer shows how the welfare-state side of government spending – conveniently ignored in the anti-globalization literature yet arguably the most significant development in the political economy of the nation-state in the twentieth century-remains remarkable stable. Written with precision and skill, Globalization Unplugged will spark controversy on both sides of the globalization debate and help deflate the rhetoric of both advocates and detractors.

Hard Like Water: Ethics in Business $40.81 Hard Like Water represents a uniquely Canadian, and international, perspective in a field largely dominated by US writers.

These values are supplemented by five performance maxims: do no harm; solve the problem; enable informed choice; act, learn, improve; and seek the common good. The book is designed to show how ethical and social values are operative in business, both in North America and internationally, and to help both students and business people to understand how ethics can help solve business problems.

Hr $20.6 Harvey Reginald MacMillan (1885-1976) is one of the most significant figures in Canadian corporate history. Born into extreme poverty in rural Ontario, MacMillan continued his education after high school and went on to study at Yale. Despite serious setbacks, including a bout with tuberculosis, MacMillan persevered, and in 1912 became the first chief forester in BC. He distinguished himself at once by selling BC lumber abroad in quantities that would have a lasting impact on the province s economy. By 1919 he had entered the private sector, establishing the first locally owned lumber export company in BC. That company grew to become MacMillan Bloedel, one of the most powerful forestry corporations in the world. MacMillan also served his country in both World Wars and gave away millions of dollars during the last two decades of his life. For more than half a century, his speeches and arguments on public policy exerted an enormous influence on Canada s business and political leaders, although he often broke ranks with his colleagues to call for long-term resource management policies that were far ahead of their time. H.R. was a prominent and influential man, always forthcoming on matters of principle. But he was also very reserved, private and complicated. Drushka s portrait of him, compiled over years of reading through public record and working closely with MacMillan s family and business associates, is a respectful but clear-eyed look at the real H.R.: the ardent conservationist who was also a ruthless business tycoon; the strait-laced businessman who had a lifelong friendship with his eccentric cousin, Mazo de la Roche; the shy, retiring gentleman whowas also described as an elemental force of nature.

Images of Grandparenting $158.25 This book offers an insightful examination into the world of Canadian grandparents, at the turn of the millenium. Who are today’’s grandparents?

As well, historical images of grandparenthood and the range of modern challenges facing today’’s diverse grandparent population are reviewed. Implications for children, families and educators are discussed, highlighting a need for media literacy and awareness.

Integrated Land-Use And Transportation Models $51.2 Tools are developing rapidly to aid public agencies and consultants with the management of land-use and transportation. Ever more powerful computers promise new generations of simulation models that allow novel investment strategies and public policies to be tried on for size before they are introduced. But for these models to reach their full potential, they must represent human behaviour in a realistic way. This book examines the behavioural foundations, often simplistic, that have limited land-use and transportation models in the past, and recommends alternative assumptions, frameworks and methods. At the heart of these are ways to measure and represent the processes of decision-making that lead to the organisation of human activities in time and space. All the main urban decision-makers are involved, including individuals, households, property developers, owners of shops and leisure facilities, employers, and public officials. The focus ranges from daily decisions of households concerning what to do, where and when to do it, and by what travel mode, to longer term decisions concerning residential choice, vehicle holdings or land consumption by housing and business entities. Collectively, these intentional micro-level behaviours culminate in aggregate flows of traffic and urban growth that may be unintended and contrary to public policy. The book is an essential guide to these behavioural foundations for anyone evaluating the environmental sustainability, healthiness and equitability of access to activities and services in city regions. This book was a product of the PROCESSUS international network research programme, funded principally by the Social Sciences and HumanitiesResearch Council of Canada (SSHRC), the Canadian Network of Centres of Excellence in geomatics (GEOIDE), and the Quebec Ministry of Transport.

Let My People Go Surfing $18 The founder and owner of Patagonia, Inc., one of the world’s most inspiring companies, relates his story and the core philosophies that have sustained his company, renowned for its maverick innovation and long-term responsibility to the environment.From the Publisher:Whether you care about adventure sports, the fate of the natural world, or pure brand maintenance and business success, Patagonia, Inc. is one of the earth’s most interesting and inspiring companies. For almost forty years, its reputation for unsurpassed high quality, maverick innovation, and long-term environmental responsibility has put it in a class by itself. And everything flows from Patagonia’s founder, Yvon Chouinard.Chouinard’s creation myth is now an American business legend. As a child, he moved with his father, a French Canadian blacksmith, and the rest of his family to Southern California in the 1950s with little English and less money. He escaped into mountain climbing as a teenager and by his early twenties was among the best climbers in America, making famous first ascents of a number of notorious faces. When he decided he could make better climbing tools himself for less money and when his fellow climbers agreed and clamored for more, a way of life became a business. Some forty years later, Yvon Chouinard still summits peaks around the world (though he now spends more time surfing). Patagonia still makes exceptionally high-quality things, only it now earns more than $250 million a year from worldwide sales, and Chouinard is able to leverage his concern for the natural settings he’s spent a lifetime enjoying. His resolve to minimize Patagonia’s impact on the environment has led the company to make its famous fleeces out of recycled soda bottles and to donate at least 1 percent of its revenue each year to environmental causes, among many other things.In Let My People Go Surfing, Yvon Chouinard relates his and his company’s story and the core philosophies that hav

Letters from America: Travels in the USA and Canada $15.95 In May 1913, Rupert Brooke embarked on a year-long expedition of North America, visiting the United States, Canada, and finally the South Seas. He sent his impressions home in a series of letters, written for publication in the Westminster Gazette, describing all his various experiences and reflections: the beauty of arriving by boat at night in New York; the novelties of a baseball game; the awesome grandeur of Niagara Falls and the Canadian wilderness; and the full deliciousness of traveling in an American train by night through new scenery. He is blunt in his judgments on society, business, and cities; playful in his accounts of Anglo-American relations; and finally humbled by the vastness of the landscape in which he finds himself. Henry James’’s foreword to the collection on its publication in 1916 is included here as an afterword.

Profit Is Not the Cure: A Citizen’s Guide to Saving Medicare $7.98 On July 12, 1966, the Medical Care Insurance Act was passed by the federal House of Commons after a ferocious public debate that pitted the vast majority of Canadians against a powerful alliance of business, insurance companies, and doctors. More than thirty years later, the same battle is being fought all over again. Only now, the forces opposed to medicare are more ideologically unified, more richly endowed, and tied to transnational corporations whose power exceeds that of entire countries. In Profit Is Not the Cure, Maude Barlow traces the history of medicare in Canada. She compares it with both public and private systems in other parts of the world. And she contrasts it with the brutally divisive system that exists in the United States, where forty-four million people have no medical insurance, and millions more get minimal care through profit-driven health maintenance organizations. From the point of view of most patients, the United States health-care model is a disaster. But the proponents of privatization in Canada, supported by the right-wing media and corporate lobbyists, are determined to impose American-style reforms on the Canadian public. Three provinces – British Columbia, Alberta, and Ontario – are moving ahead rapidly to enlarge the role of commerce in the provision of health-care services. They are introducing user fees, delisting procedures that previously were covered, and encouraging private corporations to move into areas that used to be the exclusive domain of the public system. While the prime minister and federal cabinet have paid lipservice to the principles of medicare, they have made it clear by their actions that they will do nothing toimpede the destruction of those principles by the provinces. In fact, their enthusiastic support of NAFTA, and the impending Free Trade Agreement of the Americas (FTAA) and General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS), has made the defence of medicare increasingly difficult.

Ruling Canada $19.95 The economic elite has long been thought to cooperate at a corporate level to impact state and national policies and programs at the expense of the Canadian citizenry. However, this work reveals the expanding reach of the elite and their current encroachment into the noncorporate arena as yet another opportunity to exert their formidable influence. Citing the increasingly unified and class-conscious aspects of the group, this text reveals the degree to which this minority continues to prosper, dominate, and threaten Canadian democracy through numerous unifying mechanisms: corporate director interlocks; concentrated economic ownership; ties to the mass media; and the many business-oriented think tanks, philanthropic foundations, and corporate policy organizations. Maintaining that these existing relations need not be considered inevitable, the author challenges concerned citizens to come together to disrupt the political and economic status quo.

The Challenge of Restructuring $63.5 In this volume, political scientists, sociologists, lawyers, specialists in labor relations, economists, and unionists from Canada and the United States discuss the future of labor-management relations in two economies that are undergoing fundamental economic change. The Challenge of Restructuring discusses how labor should respond to restructuring . While sometimes used as a euphemism for the economic squeeze on workers for givebacks to avoid plant closings or for business efforts to weaken unions, restructuring also signifies the ongoing processes of change in response to new economic conditions in national and international economies. This collection of essays is unique in the depth of its comparisons between the labor movements of the United States, English-speaking Canada, and Quebec. For instance, two authors examine the U.S. and Canadian auto workers unions as they negotiate contracts in different political and union environments. Another essay contrasts the handling of unfair labor practice cases in the United States and Canada. (Canada has a workable system where the burden of proof is on business and where the system better protects its workers.). Other essays examine the rules of collective bargaining, the structure of the labor market, and the principles guiding economic and social policy formation. Contributors also discuss the needs of working mothers, unions in the private sector, labor and politics, and capitalist restructuring. Collectively, the essays address a restructuring process that is increasingly throwing Canadian and American workers together even as nationalism reinforces differences in strategic orientation and organization.

The History of Canadian Business $28.67 R.T. Naylor traces the insidious interplay of big business and big government in Canada in the period between Confederation and World War I, presenting corruption as the norm rather than an abberation. He tells the often sordid story of the emergence and development of corporate capitalism in Canada during the countrybs formative years, exposing an epidemic of white-collar crime among the countrybs elite financial institutions and locating the origins of the modern corporate-welfare state in tax concessions and subsidies. A controversial study that went against the prevailing views of its time, some lauded its publication as an intellectual breakthrough, while others condemned it as a political rant. An unprecedented work in Canadian historiography, History of Canadian Business has been chosen by the Social Sciences Federation of Canada as one of the twenty most outstanding works in the field in the last half of the twentieth century.

The History of Canadian Business 1867-1914 $57.23 Casts important new light on the historical forces which lie behind many current economic and political issues.

The Longest Road $5.99 It’s the longest road in the world — an asphalt strip that stretches through cities, towns and isolated farms, and that binds mountains, prairies and rugged bush between two coats. It’s been barely two generations since the Trans-Canada Highways last stretch of blacktop was laid in the Rogers Pass, but that’s been plenty of time for it to leave a permanent right-of-way in the Canadian imagination. The Longest Road tells the story of the TCH. But more importantly it examines how a single highway linking the entire country of Canada has changed the nation that built it, the travelers who follow it and the people who live alongside it, Traveling the Trans-Canada, some find a living, some find a life. You’ll meet people in powerful trucks, horse-drawn wagons and on foot. You’ll meet business travelers and families on epic holiday road trips. And you’ll meet the people who live along the way, some finding the highway brings opportunity, some finding their way of life slowly headed out of town. A native of Swift Current, Saskatchewan, author Bob Weber grew up surrounded by evidence of the past – ruts in the prairie left by Red River carts, an old NorthWest Mounted Police station north of town, a derelict thresher on his grandfather’s farm. He has worked as an editor and northern correspondent for The Canadian Press and is the author of Saskatchewan History Along the Highway, Wild Bill and Horses Don’t Lie.

The Vanishing Country: Is It Too Late to Save Canada? $13.3 Is it all over for Canada? There are a number of thoughtful people who think so. Mel Hurtig, however, believes there is still a chance to reassert Canadian independence. But first, Canadians need to understand how much has been lost. Our politicians are not telling us. Our business leaders certainly are not telling us. And our media definitely are not telling us. The border dividing Canada and the United States has never been more fragile. Canada is vanishing. The evidence is available to those who know where to look for it. It can be found in reports published by Statistics Canada, the OECD, the World Bank, the United Nations and its affiliated organizations, and by a variety of research organizations including the Economic Policy Institute in Washington, D.C. In characteristically pungent prose, Mel Hurtig reveals the truth about health care, the banks, taxation, newspaper conglomerates, political funding, social spending, decentralization, privatization, globalization, sovereignty, competitiveness, Americanization, the war on drugs, corporate concentration, and the quality of life in Canada. He concludes with chapters on the concentration of ownership in the Canadian media, the need for electoral and parliamentary reform, the necessity of asserting Canadian sovereignty, and a final, positive chapter entitled The Good Country. From the Hardcover edition.

The Way It Looks from Here: Contemporary Canadian Writing on Sports $9.63 In the first ever anthology of its kind, Canada’s premier sportswriter — Globe and Mail columnist and author of the internationally acclaimed bestseller Facing Ali — brings together the best writing on sport in this country, with a strong contemporary flavour. It’s all here: classic reports on Canada’s great sporting triumphs, from Joe Carter’s World Series-winning home run for the Toronto Blue Jays in 1993 to the excitement of the back-to-back men’s and women’s hockey gold medals in Salt Lake City. Stephen Brunt gives an entire section to writers who, unlike those covering other beats, must work tightly by the clock, submitting their stories just as soon as the action for the day is over. But he has also chosen our best writers’ more thoughtful pieces on our national obsessions — such as Ed Willes on the WHA’s seven tumultuous years and Wayne Johnston on the Original Six — and a good sampling of the great sportswriters such as Trent Frayne, Peter Gzowski and Milt Dunnell. The net effect is an examination of the deep role sport plays in our lives and imaginations, in our sense of self and nationhood. Stephen Brunt has cast his net widely. He includes superb stories of lower profile Canadian sports such as wrestling and horse racing, even Monster Truck battles, and allows space for his own unequalled and unforgettable profiles of Muhammad Ali and Mike Tyson, as well as his post-mortem on Ben Johnson’s fall from grace. Full of triumph and heartbreak, great writing and great passions — and a few wonderful surprises — this book will be essential reading for every serious sports fan. Including: – Ian Brown on the stud-horse business- Christie Blatchford on the2003 Women’s Olympic Hockey Gold- Rosie DiManno on the Men’s- James Christie on Ben Johnson’s 1988 Olympic triumph in Seoul- Michael Faber on Pat Burns- Red Fisher on Lemieux and Gretzky at the 1987 Canada Cup- Trent Frayne on Canadian Open golf champ Ken Green deci
