Last March, when comedian Mike Myers pointed to his elbow and mouthed the words “Elbows Up” as the SNL credits rolled, he galvanized the country, helped elect a Prime Minister, and inspired a book. Elbows Up!: Canadian Voices of Resilience and Resistance editor Abdelmahmoud, and three of its contributors, Ann-Marie MacDonald, David Moscrop, and Paul Myers (yes, he’s Mike’s bro) take a deep-dive into the pros and cons of patriotism, nationalism, and why Canada is not for sale.
