THE DAY B.C. QUIT CANADA, A Novel by John A. Haskett and Michael J. Haskett, uses behind the scenes action as it base of operations, to put forth the many steps that would need to be considered for a province, such as B.C., to become a republic.
Although only a fiction novel, one wonders is it possible? How would Ottawa react? What about the world's most powerful country to the south? Would it be viewed as a problem, or as a long tern benefit? What actions would be taken? This novel shows what could happen to the Canadian Confederation.
"This book is a perfect fable from a time when secession from the rest of Canada was in people's minds. And it still is in some places. A well written story with recognizable characters and told from the point of view of the Premier of B.C. and his right hand Minister of Finance after a new discovery of the richest gold strike in the history of the province provides the funds to initiate a breakaway. A very enjoyable and easy to read book!" -Reviewed by Brian Gruohel on Goodreads.
