- Summary:
- "The Keystone Province: Politics and Governance in Manitoba brings together leading experts to examine Manitoba's diverse political institutions, processes, sectors, and actors. This comprehensive collection presents an accessible and engaging analysis of Manitoba's governments from Louis Riel to Wab Kinew. Examining Manitoba's unique political culture, from its first breaths on the battlefields to the steady pulse of the structures, processes, communities, parties, and elections that make up its modern body politic, editors Kelly Saunders and Christopher Adams demonstrate that, throughout its history of continuity and change, the "middle province" remains politically exciting, unique, and worthy of study and debate."-- Provided by publisher.
