Read excerpt
Tyler Dawson is an Edmonton-based editor for The Globe and Mail’s Opinion section. He is the author of The Republic of Alberta: An Idea That Won’t Go Away. The era of the duelling discussion papers has arrived. And it’s more interesting than it sounds. The campaigns over the 10 referendum questions being put to Albertans in October are heating up.
