Every day, all across the world, people pay for things. We pay for things with cash, with cards, with our phones and on our computers. We tap, swipe and insert our cards. We sign receipts and ask for change. We do this every day. Yet, we know
very little about what happens to 
make all that tapping and swiping work. We don't know the history of why things work the way they do. A Payment History of the United States is a brief history of the basic payment systems in the United States starting from bills and ending with bitcoin. This is an entertaining book about why things work the way they do when it comes to the world of payments.

On Nov. 4, 2015, Justin Trudeau became Canada's 23rd prime minister. Trudeau promised to govern differently - in an optimistic and transparent way. Instead, as author and Sun columnist Candice Malcolm reports in this detailed examination of his earliest decisions, Trudeau has chosen to pursue a cynical political agenda to manipulate Canada's immigration system. As authorities in Europe struggle to respond to terror attacks and waves of migration from conflict zones, Trudeau is haphazardly throwing Canada's doors open to the world. Why is Trudeau granting Canadian citizenship to a convicted terrorist? Why is he scrapping the language test for many citizenship applicants? Malcolm puts forward compelling evidence that the prime minister is undermining Canadian values - and doing it for one simple reason: so his Liberal Party can win favour with special interest groups and add to its voting coalition in time for the next election. With his radical changes to our immigration system, Trudeau is sacrificing Canada's traditions and advantages. He is putting our economy, our national security and our very way of life at risk. Trudeau is changing our country - and changing what it means to be Canadian. Losing True North is a wake-up call to all Canadians.

Thanks to the big promises made by politicians, our government lives beyond its means, doesn't pay its bills and forces young workers to pay for the lucrative benefits of older workers -- benefits that won't exist for the next generation. Generation Screwed is the manifesto that teaches young Canadians how to fight back against the Ponzi schemes set up by their government.
