Summary:
"He was known in Québec as the provincial Opposition’s "pit bull." Here, in his own words, is the story of Tom Mulcair's rise from middle-class beginnings to the threshold of power. Who he is, how he thinks, and how he comes by the values that shaped his character. Unwavering in his convictions, he shares information on the reasons why he resigned as Québec’s minister of the environment under Charest; his decision to rejoin the New Democratic Party; and what it was like working closely with Jack Layton to help spearhead the "Orange Wave" that enabled the NDP to become the Official Opposition in the 2011 federal election. Mulcair sheds light on past immigration and environmental policies, the Québec Referendum, Native residential schools and the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, and the Harper government’s Anti-Terrorism Act. He reveals his vision for the country and his position on the issues that matter most. Tom Mulcair was born in Ottawa and raised in Laval, Québec. After attending law school at McGill University, Tom worked in the civil service and later in politics. In 2003, he became Minister of Sustainable Development, Environment and Parks in the Québec Liberal provincial government led by Jean Charest. In 2012 Tom was elected leader of the NDP and leader of the Official Opposition"--Provided by publisher.
