Book Description
In 1998, hoping to leave a legacy for the new millennium, the federal government created the Canada Millennium Scholarship Foundation, which has since funded and empowered more than a million young Canadians. The Foundation itself has been a remarkable success story, a model of efficiency and political manoeuvring. The essential feature of the program was its innovative partnering with the provinces, recognizing different approaches to the issue - a stellar example of asymmetrical federalism. A brilliant, funny and highly entertaining storyteller, Silver Donald Cameron tells the inside story of the Foundation's life, which serves as a case study in astute management practice in the face of serious challenges. Woven into the narrative are the stories of individuals whose lives were affected by the Foundation's programs. Inspiring, funny, heart-breaking and surprising, these tales form the heart of the book. A Million Futures is the definitive testament to a unique, ground-breaking and transformative institution, abounding with useful lessons for organizations of all kinds, and anyone interested in innovative public policy.

Book Description
"For nearly half a century, driven largely by Quebec nationalism, Canadians have engaged in an almost uninterrupted process of constitutional introspection, seeking a set of institutional arrangements capable of bringing a sense of unity to our large and diverse federation. The emergence of First Nations and other Aboriginal peoples onto the constitutional agenda has given the issue of Canadian citizenship and national unity a new dimension and salience. We are caught in a conflict between a democratic Canadian state which is in the business of creating citizens as a functional requirement for its effective ruling capacity and an indigenous nationalism frustrated by the constraints of this Canadian nation-building project. In this essay Alan Cairns outlines the contours of this struggle and suggests a manner of thinking which might move us in the direction of a viable middle ground.
