Through a series of anonymous callers to a Montreal radio talk show, we learn that Askew advocated that all regions of Canada should negotiate sovereignty-association with their equivalent economic regions in the United States, resulting in a Canadian political structure consistent with its economic structure.Language:EnglishNotes:Genre:DRAMADetailed holdings information: -
