Goodreads asked Troy Parfitt:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Troy Parfitt I love travel literature but couldn't find any good travel literature about Canada except an old book by Jan Morris. However, even that was really gushing. I thought I'd like to write a travel piece about Canada that was more critical and written by a Canadian (Morris is Welsh). Also, I'd been out of Canada for more than a decade and knew I had a completely different perspective from everyone else.
