Will Ferguson: How to be a Canadian (2001, Douglas & McIntyre) 3 stars

Review of 'How to be a Canadian' on 'Goodreads'

2 stars

I enjoyed Will Ferguson's previous books and laughed myself sick at Why I Hate Canadians and I Was A Teenage Katima-victim, so of course I picked up this one. But this is definitely not to the same standard. It feels like a book written just to sell another book. Reused ideas, familiar jokes, same old message and nothing new except now it's in even fluffier easier-to-consume list format. I guess if you've never read his other books it would be funny, but if you have, this isn't worth picking up.
