Denison Avenue [graphic novel] : a novel / by Wong, Christina(Christina M.),author.; Innes, Daniel,illustrator.;
"A moving story told in visual art and fiction about gentrification, aging in place, grief, and vulnerable Chinese Canadian elders. Bringing together ink artwork and fiction, Denison Avenue by Daniel Innes (illustrations) and Christina Wong (text) follows the elderly Wong Cho Sum, who, living in Toronto's gentrifying Chinatown-Kensington Market, begins to collect bottles and cans after the sudden loss of her husband as a way to fill her days and keep grief and loneliness at bay. In her long walks around the city, Cho Sum meets new friends, confronts classism and racism, and learns how to build a life as a widow in a neighborhood that is being destroyed and rebuilt, leaving elders like her behind. A poignant meditation on loss, aging, gentrification, and the barriers that Chinese Canadian seniors experience in big cities, Denison Avenue beautifully combines visual art, fiction, and the endangered Toisan dialect to create a book that is truly unforgettable."--

The art of diplomacy : strengthening the Canada-U.S. relationship in times of uncertainty / by Heyman, Bruce,1958-author.; Heyman, Vicki,1957-author.;
"When Bruce Heyman was sworn in as the United States Ambassador to Canada, he and his wife and confidante, Vicki, already knew the country north of the border as America's closest friend and neighbour. By the end of four years as ambassador, he and Vicki were in love with the country. Together, Bruce and Vicki opened their hearts to Canada and helped unite two countries that share so much more than just a border. In their memoir, Bruce and Vicki invite readers to explore what Canada has to offer as they reflect on the experiences that shaped them and the people from coast to coast to coast who taught them what it means to be Canadian. Heartfelt and honest, this memoir is a love letter to Canada from a couple that exemplifies that we are at our best when we are strong and standing together."-- Provided by publisher.
