The Best Laid Plans

Praise

WINNER OF THE STEPHEN LEACOCK MEDAL FOR HUMOUR
WINNER OF CBC CANADA READS

“Amusing, enlightening—and Canadian, and it deftly explores the Machiavellian machinations of Ottawa’s political culture.” —The Globe and Mail

“This is a funny book that could only have been written by someone with firsthand knowledge of politics in Canada, including its occasionally absurd side. This is a great read for anyone thinking of running for office, and especially reassuring for those who have decided not to.”  —The Hon. Allan Rock, former Justice Minister and Canadian Ambassador to the United Nations

“Terry Fallis has found the cure for Canada’s political malaise: a stubborn, old, irreverent Scotsman with nothing to lose. Until Angus McLintock walks out of fiction and into public office, where he would surely save the nation, the only place to find him is right here among The Best Laid Plans.” —Tom Allen, CBC Radio host and author of The Gift of the Game
