They include holders of the Order of Canada as well as many other distinguished and provocative thinkers.This book provides readers with a vehicle to discover and debate who Albertans are, where theyve been and where they are going. It offers an opportunity to understand Albertas unique political leadership and bold economic choices.The editors say: We want people to read this book and say thats what were about.We want other Canadians to read and say, now I understand them. The Alberta spirit springs from a well of independence and self-sufficiency. We are part of Canada but we are also very much ourselves.
