In Praise of A Flag for Canada

A Flag for Canada Winner of the 2002 Prose Non-Fiction Illustrated Alcuin Award for Excellence in Book Design in Canada

"A remarkably interesting book that every Canadian will want to read."

Pierre Berton

"This is a wonderful book that tells the fascinating story of our flag and our country. I strongly recommend it."

Mel Hurtig

"This book is the salute the flag has been waiting for since 1965. If all Canadian history were tackled this way, we would never have to ask why Canadians don't pay more attention to what made us what we are."

Roy MacGregor

"This is a fascinating account of how we raised our own flag. It is of particular importance right now, when our friends to the south are doing their best to replace it with the Stars and Stripes. I heartily recommend it to any Canadian who has a feeling for our country."

Farley Mowat

"I Stand For Canada is a moving book, beautifully illustrated and full of spark, with everything you ever wanted to know about our national leaf. It's an important book about a symbol that has come to mean openness and welcome to the rest of the world."
