What it is

Canada's official national strategy has long been simple:

Make a mistake. Say sorry. Change the subject.

In So Sorry, Jordan Blake Carter takes listeners on an unforgettable journey through the history Canada would often rather not discuss. You'll encounter vanished peoples, ambitious explorers, fur-trade empires, rebellions, political scandals, broken promises, constitutional showdowns, and generations of Canadians trying to figure out who they are.

Equal parts funny, fascinating, and deeply researched, So Sorry peels back the polite national image to reveal a country built by remarkable achievements, painful failures, and more than a few historical disasters.

Because Canada's history deserves more than a polite summary. It deserves the whole story.
