“With meticulous research and reporting, and clear-eyed analysis, Martin Lukacs has written a must-read that brilliantly maps the inner logic of the Trudeau years. He decodes how a progressive veneer is bound to an elite agenda, and in the process exposes how Canada’s establishment operates when they think no one is watching.”
— Naomi Klein, Author of This Changes Everything and The Shock Doctrine“Martin Lukacs is a journalist I depend on to inform me about what is really going on.”
— David Suzuki, scientist and broadcaster“One of Canada’s most important independent journalists and a staunch voice for social and environmental justice.”
— Maude Barlow, Council of Canadians honorary chairperson

COP23 is "Useless" According to Dimitri Roussopoulos, Author of 'Political Ecology'
As the COP23 climate summit in Bonn, Germany enters its second and final week, Dimitri Roussopoulos, author of Political Ecology: The Climate Crisis and a New Social Agenda (Black Rose Books, 2017), dismisses the conference as another example of the failure of governments to deal the world's environmental crisis.
"Yet again," Roussopoulos reflects, "the various State representatives sit around a table, debating over technical minutiae while the slow-motion climate Apocalypse continues. The whole exercise is useless. Insignificant progress has been made since the much-lauded Paris Accord in 2015, which even James Hansen lambasted as a 'fraud'. Our governments have failed us."
