"Professor Leman reveals a masterly grasp of the complexities of Canadian and American federalism, and of the manner in which the quite different central institutions of the two countries affect the style and substance of policy formation. He has produced a superb study of comparative policy-making in an area of public spending fraught with failure and frustration. Appearing at a time when Canadians and Americans are highly critical of their respective institutions, his book offers sobering insights to those who are prone to see greener grass on the other side of their common border."--J. Stefan Dupre, Professor of Political Science, University of Toronto, and former William Lyon Mackenzie King Visiting Professor of Canadian Studies, Harvard University
