Packaged in a 28 x 27.5 cm hard cover format, this edition of the Portrait features its now traditional six chapters: "The Land", "The People", "The Society", "Arts and Leisure", "The Economy" and "Canada in the World" but with completely new text. With approximately 100 high-quality colour and black and white photographs, it presents an exciting visual canvas of life in Canada. Six eminent Canadians - John Kenneth Galbraith, Nicole Brossard, Zacharias Kunuk, Guy Vanderhaeghe, Gordon Pinsent, and Rick Mercer - have contributed prefaces to each chapter. Additional quotes by and about Canadians and short feature articles complement the main text.
