I'm a big fan of Hurtig and have met him a few times. It's purely my opinion, but the National Party he was leader of in 1993 would have been amazing for the country. Of course the problem is that it was going nowhere fast. I've read a few of his books and will likely read this one as well.
While that article doesn't have a lot to say, he has really liberal policies, but with a fairly nationalist tone to them. I also like that he pressed for democracy and democratic reform, which at a national level I think is sensible.
He's a really interesting guy and it's too bad he wasn't able to have more of an impact in his earlier years.
