Great northern characters

Order of Canada recipient, Michael Barnes, presents the stories of twenty-five men and women of the North who made their mark there and in the wider world. Here are tycoons and tyrants, sinners and saviours, the humble and the arrogant, all asserting their right to be individuals. This book is a reminder of the great wealth this country has in its people and gives us an opportunity to celebrate the lives and achievements of a few of the best.
