Includes bibliographic endnotes.
"This book is both a record and a reflection on an extraordinary period in the life of the Canadian churches. .... In response to the spirit of renewal that followed from the Second Vatican Council, Roman Catholics in Canada were reaching out to experiment with new ecumenical relationships. While formal links through the Canadian Council of Churches seemed a long way off, Protestants were pushed by this surge of Catholic energy to build new models for peace and justice work. These became known as the interchurch coalitions, which the Protestant churches experienced as an opportunity to discover their own Social Gospel tradition (p. [5]). .... In this book we have asked the coalitions to tell their own story. Though the story may have a single person's name attached to it, it has been authorized by the coalition and circulated and revised by many people associated with the coalition's work. This was done to ensure the telling of a collective story rather than an individual one. These stories form Part One. .... We asked the writers of Part Two to read all of the stories and identify themes that emerged from the stories themselves. (p. 7) .... Another group of people [authors of Part Two], committed to supporting this justice work of the churches, has reflected on the strengths and weaknesses, similarities and differences among the stories. They have found much to praise, but also much to challenge (p. 8)". -- Intro.
Contents divided into two parts: Part I -- Part II.

Notes
"The Canadian Government has released its foreign policy statement entitled 'Canada in the World'. Many churches, coalitions and NGOs [non-governmental organizations] devoted a great deal of time and energy to the government's review of Canada's foreign policy. ICCAF (Inter-Church Coalition on Africa) submitted its own brief as well as appearing before the committee. The Foreign Affairs Committee Report, released in November last year [1994], while flawed in many respects, nonetheless reflected the concerns and recommendations that Canadians had expressed in hearings that were held across the country". "'Canada in the World' represents a significant shift away from the vision and values that Canadians hold to be the cornerstone of our identity. Canadians want to see the values of justice, fairness and compassion upheld not only in our domestic policy but also in the conduct of our foreign policy. Those appearing before the committee strongly supported Canada's foreign aid program, urging the government to ensure that it was targeted towards the poorest and for sustainable human development. Most importantly, we urged the government not to allow our foreign aid to be tainted by commercial interests". "The filtering of every aspect of our foreign policy through the self-interested lens of how we can make a buck, leaves one questioning whether Canada's foreign policy is rapidly becoming morally bankrupt".
