description: Ottawa-based journalist began interviewing politicians, activists, volunteers, and residents in suburban Ontario and Orange County, California in the middle 1990s. He finds that Ontario is taking up policies favoring bedroom communities at the same time Californians are deciding they are not such a good idea. He worries what will happen to Canadian communities that continue to embrace politicians who see government spending as a burden on honest people, urban dwellers as welfare cheats, and civil servants as an overpaid elite.
