North of Opinion: A Canadian’s Take on a Changing World
By Doug Rogers (Now Available on Amazon!)

In a world tilting toward division, fear, and political chaos, North of Opinion offers a bold, thoughtful, and refreshingly Canadian voice in the global conversation.

With wit, wisdom, and unapologetic clarity, as a retired railway leader and proud Canadian, I present a timely collection of editorial essays that explore the shifting ground beneath our democracies. From the rise of right-wing extremism to the fragile thread of truth in media, I’ll examine how the forces reshaping the United States also cast long shadows across Canada’s borders.

This isn’t just political theory, it’s personal. Drawing on lived experience, generational insight, and a lifelong commitment to human dignity, I challenge you to think critically about sovereignty, identity, and what it means to be a good neighbour in turbulent times. Whether confronting authoritarian creep or championing Canadian values like healthcare, multiculturalism, and decency, my message is clear: the fight for democracy isn’t over, and silence is no longer an option.

Inside you’ll discover:

• How Canada can protect its sovereignty without fear or apology
• The real cost of extremism—and how everyday citizens can push back
• A powerful defense of human rights, social safety nets, and truth itself
• Hopeful pathways for rebuilding trust, unity, and international cooperation

From coffee shop conversations to global headlines, North of Opinion invites readers to stand up, speak out, and take pride in a uniquely Canadian approach to a rapidly changing world.

If you believe democracy is worth defending and that Canada has a vital role to play, this book is for you.
