The idea of Canada : letters to a nation

Summary: "From our present Governor General, a series of 50 carefully chosen letters he has written to people he has admired and befriended over his seventy-plus years, that sets out Mr. Johnston's frank, informed, and novel thoughts about Canada. Touching on a wide range of topics ranging from learning, the law, kindness and courage, to the monarchy, Aboriginal education, justice, bilingualism, mental health and hockey, David Johnston has always used the letter writing form to tackle the passions, challenges, and goals of his incredibly accomplished and varied life. The letters included in this beautiful volume are all about Canada - a project to help him understand and share his views on this great country, past, present and future. The perfect gift for graduates, this unique and lovely book should find its home in every Canadian's library."--Provided by publisher.
