Summary:"Robert L. Stanfield has been called "the best Prime Minister we never had." In 1972 he very nearly defeated Pierre Trudeau for that office. Robert Stanfield's Canada reflects on the kind of progressive conservative he was, and the measured, humane, realistic and decent foreign, social, economic and constitutional priorities he fought for. Rich with insights from his speeches and handwritten notes, both from his years in national politics and through a long activist retirement, this is a remarkable analysis of one man's civility, prescriptions and ideas, still at the core of the uniquely Canadian conservative tradition."--BOOK JACKET.
