Many Canadian libraries may be closing during the coronavirus crisis. But Project Gutenberg Canada will remain open, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day !!

In other news...

Well, they did it. On Friday 13 March 2020 the House of Commons rushed the toxic trade deal into law. And we mean rushed! It was "deemed" to have had third reading, and it went through the Senate on the same day. Wow!
 
It does seem that Friday the 13th is indeed an unlucky day. And that Canadian democracy is a touch more fragile than people think.
 
Let's be fair here. We were certainly bullied by "our" government, but they in turn were certainly bullied by the White House tyrant, so deserve some measure of our compassion.
 
Even so, they should have stood their ground.
 
As it happens, some copyright extensions were in today's bill, but the most damaging one of all, the general twenty-year extension, was not. That will be handled at some point in the next year or two in a separate bill. And it is possible that copyright holders may be required to ask for the extension through formal registration, which means that many copyrights would not be extended. So we may be asking for your support in writing your MP about this when the time comes.
 
In the meantime, thank your for your support. It is never a mistake to take the correct moral action. And it is entirely clear that Canadians oppose these extensions, and that our MPs are entirely aware that they are being coerced by a foreign power.
 
With a fair measure of relief, we'll now focus our undivided attention on building the Project Gutenberg Canada library, and make the website less political. When the time comes in a year or two to discuss the copyright extension bill, we'll ask for your help, confident that you will support us then as you have in the past.
 
In the meantime... happy reading!

The Rat Race (1950 Galaxy version) Wikipedia [Novel, a heady mixture of science fiction and political intrigue. It starts in April 1945 when an atomic bomb explodes on board the U.S.S. Alaska. But the bomb uses thorium Wikipedia rather than uranium! In the explosion's aftermath, Lieutenant-Commander Frank Jacklin finds himself in someone else's body, and that's when things really start happening. The anonymous reviewer at Fantasy Book thought it was one of the best books of the year: "A fast-moving satire of American life, sharp, funny, and to the point." For Groff Conklin (Galaxy, October 1950) the novel lacked credibility: "There have been incredible pieces of pseudo-science fantasy in the past... But this book really should take a prize." As regards the science part, perhaps. But from the perspective of today, the political intrigues highlighted by Conklin seem entirely realistic: the murder of the U.S. president, for example, American citizens not charged with any specific crime being sequestered in a huge mental hospital, and so on. Actually, Conklin recognized that the book "is fascinating reading... Certainly Franklin wanted to have his readers haunted by the idea that some of what he was writing was actually true. Maybe it was and just doesn't sound it." And indeed, perhaps it was true: as an eminent political journalist and former State Department employee, Conklin certainly had access to excellent sources! The source for our ebook is the 1950 edition published by the editors of Galaxy Magazine, and is described on the front cover as "complete and unabridged" and on the title page as "a complete novel", but a note after the title page states that "This novel has been slightly abridged for the sake of better pacing." The edition was published during the author's lifetime: presumably he did the trimming, or at least consented to it.]

Ehrengard (1963) [Novella: "another of her splendid Gothic tales that combine great ingenuity of plot with old-fashioned precision and purity of style." (Charles Alva Hoyt, Saturday Review, 29 June 1963) Ehrengard von Schreckenstein, as you might expect from someone with a name like that, is descended from an old and distinguished family, and as our story opens is the new maid-of-honour to Princess Ludmilla. One of the main characters is a somewhat dubious painter: "if Herr Cazotte was famous as a portraitist of fair ladies, he was no less celebrated and talked about as their conqueror and seducer, the irresistible Don Juan of his age."
