JOHN RALSTON SAUL Canada's historical roots are largely European -- French and English. Right? Wrong, says John Ralston Saul. In a new book, he argues that we are a Metis nation, with more ties to Aboriginal culture than European. And he claims our history of multi-culturalism and peacekeeping reflects that heritage. Saul is one Canada's leading writers and thinkers. His book is called A Fair Country: Telling Truths about Canada.
