Set for release on Jan. 27, Richard Stursberg’s Lament for a Literature critiques the decline of Canadian literature, attributing it to government mismanagement under Justin Trudeau’s Liberals, who emphasized Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) without addressing deeper issues. The book highlights the chilling effect of identity politics on creative expression and the reassessment of historical figures like Sir John A. Macdonald, whose legacy has been scrutinized due to policies harming Indigenous peoples, leading to the removal of his statues and name from public spaces.
