In his career, culminating as CBC news anchor for the National, Peter Mansbriidge has interviewed many famous people. In this book, however, he turns his attention to everyday Canadians and the jobs they do that keep Canada running. No less fascinating for not being famous, they subjects of these portraits tell us about what they do and why it matters. It's easy to see Mr. Mansbridge's interviewing skills here as he allows each person to shine, and never inserts himself into their story. ( ) nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
From #1 bestselling authors Peter Mansbridge and Mark Bulgutch comes a new book of first-person stories about the unique people and professions that make Canada work. In this latest collection of personal stories, Peter Mansbridge and former CBC producer Mark Bulgutch shine a light on the everyday jobs that keep our nation running and the inspiring people who perform them with empathy and kindness. Meet the high school principal in British Columbia who is mentoring the next generation. Hear from the chief of the Neskantaga First Nation in northern Ontario, who sacrifices his personal time to fight for better resources for his community, which has had a boil water advisory since the mid-1990s. From the air traffic controller who ensures people get to where they need to go, to the midwife in Saskatchewan who guides families through pregnancy and the birthing process, these are the jobs that connect Canadians on both a logistical and personal level. Though Canada is still very much a work in progress, this enlightening book celebrates how we are greater than the sum of our parts by championing the people that make our country great.
