Explore My World

Reflections Across the World's Longest Undefended Border - This book explores how two neighboring democracies—Canada and the United States—grew from shared roots into sharply different societies. Drawing on a lifetime lived on both sides of the border, I examine how choices about rules, trust, immigration, health care, inequality, and national myths shape everyday life. The Beaver and the Bald Eagle is neither polemic nor nostalgia, but a clear-eyed comparison of two countries—and a reflection on what their diverging paths reveal about the future of Western democracy.
