The book critiques Stephen Harper's government for its aggressive undermining of science and environmental protections in Canada, marking it as a significant betrayal of Enlightenment values. It details the closure of Arctic research stations, budget cuts in agriculture, changes to fisheries policy, and the suppression of government scientists. Through interviews with affected scientists and environmental NGOs, it reveals a troubling narrative of a government prioritizing economic interests over scientific integrity and environmental stewardship.
