“Red, White and Kind of Blue? is crisp and unnerving. It suggests Parliament is so malleable, and many of its participants so weak, it dispensed with ancient checks and balances without a shot being fired.”- Holly Doan (Blacklocks Reporter, October 10, 2015) “By providing a provocative discussion of contemporary issues and analysis of constitutional reform, Red, White and Kind of Blue is a worthy read. As for its core argument, the book should succeed in spurring a useful debate about Canada’s constitutional culture as well.” - Emmett MacFarlane, The Literary Review of Canada, March 2016 ‘Highly recommended.’- G. A. McBeath (Choice Magazine vol 53:11:2016)
