About this audiobook
There was once an unwritten deal in Canada: work hard, follow the rules, contribute what you can, and have a fair chance to build a life. Nobody signed it. Everyone knew it.
Today, that promise feels harder to keep. Housing is less affordable, milestones arrive later, and parents wonder whether their children will have the opportunities they once had.
In *The New Canadian Covenant*, Christopher M. Michaud asks what Canada owes those who contribute to it, and what citizens owe in return.
Building on After the Boom, Canadianism, and Democracy Renewed, he makes the case for a renewed Canadian Dream grounded in opportunity, stability, representation, belonging, participation, and responsibility.
He argues that skilled trades deserve respect, essential work should be a first choice rather than a fallback, and Canada has the resources and talent to build a stronger future.
This isn't nostalgia or a story of decline, BUT invitation to renew the promise between Canada and its people.
