Histoire
Chipper, patient, and courteous, Canada has pursued an improbable destiny as a splendid nation of relatively good and ably self-governing people, but most would agree we have not realized our true potential. Canada's main chance, writes Black, is now before it...and it is not in the usual realms of military or economic dominance. With the rest of the West engaged in a sterile left-right tug of war, Canada has the opportunity to lead the world to its next stage of development in the arts of government.

Histoire
Rick Mercer can always be relied on to provoke a strong reaction - but what he said one fall day in 2017 truly shocked Canada. In a rant posted on social media, the great Canadian satirist announced loud and clear that the 15th season of the Rick Mercer Report - the nation's best-watched and best-loved comedy show - would be the last. This volume brings together never-before-published rants from the last five seasons of the show, plus a selection of the very best rants from earlier years.

In his own words, the heavyweight champion of the world pulls no punches as he chronicles the battles he faced in and out of the ring in this fascinating memoir edited by Nobel Prize-winning novelist, Toni Morrison. Growing up in the South, surrounded by racial bigotry and discrimination, Ali fought not just for a living, but also for respect and rewards far more precious than money or glory. He was named Sportsman of the Century by Sports Illustrated and the BBC.

Description
In this timely and insightful new book, Stephen J. Harper, Canada's 22nd Prime Minister, draws on a decade of experience as a G-7 leader to help leaders in business and government understand, adapt, and thrive in an age of unprecedented disruption.
The world is in flux. Disruptive technologies, ideas, and politicians are challenging business models, norms, and political conventions everywhere. How we, as leaders in business and politics, choose to respond matters greatly. Some voices refuse to concede the need for any change, while others advocate for radical realignment. But neither of these positions can sustainably address the legitimate concerns of disaffected citizens.
Right Here, Right Now sets out a pragmatic, forward-looking vision for leaders in business and politics by analyzing how economic, social, and public policy trends - including globalized movements of capital, goods, and services, and labor - have affected our economies, communities, and governments.
Harper contends that Donald Trump's surprise election and governing agenda clearly signal that political, economic, and social institutions must be more responsive to legitimate concerns about public policy, market regulation, immigration, and technology.
Urging listeners to look past questions of style and gravitas, Harper thoughtfully examines the substantive underpinnings of how and why Donald Trump was able to succeed Barack Obama as President of the United States, and how these forces are manifesting themselves in other western democracies.
Analyzing international trade, market regulation, immigration, technology, and the role of government in the digital economy, Harper lays out the case for pragmatic leadership as a proven solution to the uncertainty and risk that businesses and governments face today.

Clear and measured
When I saw that Stephen Harper was reading his own book, I cringed. I was wrong. He does a great job of narrating this book. It the most clear view of the political environment I have read in a long time. This should be mandatory reading for all political workers and students.

Excellent analysis
Harper is surprisingly calm, thoughtful. He obviously has a conservative take on current issues, but I think his claims can be helpful to a more left leaning audience as well.
Most of the book covers the underlying causes behind the rise of right wing populism in the West. Roughly speaking, Harper is making the case that working and middle class citizens have genuine grievances that are largely ignored regarding immigration and trade. It is hard to deny him this point. Some right leaning politicians have been almost dogmatically wedded to solving all ills with more decentralization, more high end tax cuts, more deregulation and freer trade. On the left, a growing habit of trying to paint the opposition as mentally ill or reckless to avoid arguing over substance is also part of the problem. The right turned a deaf hear to middle class people and the left insulted them -- enters Trump who says he'll do something in the least politically correct prose he could muster.
Harper's insights echo comments made by Jonathan Haidt and Jordan Peterson regarding the backlash against political correctness and the dangers of identity politics. The same could be drawn from Pinker's not-so-subtle stabs at the left on college campuses: all of these people agree you get in trouble when you don't listen.
This short book by Harper covers in details several aspects of the problems in the US. Given Harper worked extensively on immigration and trade as Prime Minister of Canada, it is no surprise he has a lot to say about US immigration policy, trade policy and foreign policy.
If you lean more to the left, his comments could bother you, but he is extremely thoughtful and pragmatic. It is a great read, filled with intricate details about how to manage competing goals and bring about beneficial cooperation in this world today.

Politics
Upfront disclosure: I came into this as leaning towards the left, politically, with no real strong opinion of Harper. I guess I was hoping to get some insight as to how right-leaning conservatives hope to see the world proceed and what conservative priorities are. Maybe I'm missing something that they're seeing? This felt more like Harper giving himself a pat on the back for his time as PM, grouping anyone more liberal than his conservatives as essentially idiotic, and giving nods to Trump's accomplishments. Anybody who can give any credibility to Trump and will pretend that Trump has any sort of coherent, formal strategy has lost my confidence on that basis alone. It was also ironic that Harper weighs in on what happened in the US to see Trump elected over Clinton, but in no instance does he take a stab at how he got walked out the door himself, even though there is likely parallels and significant overlap (i.e. using hindsight to appear knowledgeable). The book felt more like a speech that would be given at a Conservative fundraiser, bolstering pre-existing commitment to the organization, with language such as "we, as conservatives, must..." and "i'm confident that our party...". It felt like a good example of confirmation bias to be shared amongst conservatives, rather than providing outsiders with convincing, stand-alone arguments that demonstrate how conservative ideology can be successful. It's by no means an objective look at our state of affairs and I would continue to keep it at arms length without significant fact-finding to support its arguments. I'm walking away with more disdain for politicians in general, less respect for Harper specifically.

Incredible Insight
Former Prime Minister Stephen Harper shares some excellent insight on how to understand the rise of current populist movements and how conservatives can remain relevant to changing times. His instruction that conservatives should not blindly follow traditional conservative dogmas of free marketism and immigration control, but that they need to learn how to apply their values to present circumstances is particularly useful. His provides a way to understand current political dynamics that do not rely on simple and two dimensional caricatures.
Perhaps the best thing about this book is that it is accessible for those who are not as familiar with economics and politics. For the difficulty of the material, it is quite understandable to read.

A broad overview of something important.
Stephen Harper gives a broad overview of the current problems facing our world. Whether you agreed with the policies his government put in place or not, this book is valuable to any person concerned about the future. A shift away from globalism isn't so much a problem as is the way globalism is implemented and how it impacts the people of our countries.
