The book explores the contrasting acceptance speeches of two Canadian Governors-General, Georges Vanier in 1959 and Michaëlle Jean in 2005. Vanier's speech emphasized humility and a prayerful appeal to God, reflecting the values of his time. In stark contrast, Jean's address focused on empowerment and the potential for innovation in Canadian history, omitting any religious references. This juxtaposition highlights the evolving nature of Canadian leadership and societal values over nearly six decades, illustrating a shift from traditional to modern perspectives.
