In Strong and Free: Stories and Poems about Canada, author Tracilyn George weaves together a powerful tapestry of Canada’s identity through stirring poems, insightful stories, and thought-provoking commentary. From the snowy battlefields of the Plains of Abraham to the red carpet with Mike Myers and the global stage of Mark Carney’s diplomacy, this collection celebrates the people, events, and culture that have shaped a nation.Whether honoring the legacy of Indigenous games like lacrosse, paying tribute to musical icons like Lucie Idlout and Gordon Lightfoot, or examining the quiet strength behind Canada’s Bill of Rights and national flag, George invites readers to rediscover what makes Canada both strong and free. With compassion, humor, and a keen eye for history, this book captures the essence of a diverse country that continues to inspire the world.
