In 1941, influential publishing magnate Henry Luce wrote a stirring
essay on American global power, declaring that the world was in the
midst of the first great American century. What did a newly
outward-looking and hegemonic United States mean for its northern
neighbour? From constitutional reform to transit policy, from
national security to the arrival of television, Canadians were ever
mindful of the American experience. This sharp-eyed volume provides
a unique look at postwar Canada, bringing to the fore the opinions
and perceptions of a broad range of Canadians – from consumers to
diplomats, jazz musicians to urban planners, and a diverse
cross-section in between.
