Not the Fourth of July

Financial analyst Marc Lafarge is a workaholic who has been putting in countless hours for a stockbroking firm in Calgary when he stumbles upon a nefarious plot. The Canadian firm he's been working for, on his secondary industrial sector project, is embroiled in an American plot to take over Canada's natural resources. As Marc learns more about the highly sophisticated scheme to usurp the country's oil and water resources, he realises he must do something to stop the Americans.
Initially, determined to reveal a substantial fraud in oil and profits, Marc assembles a group of like-minded Canadians to fight against what he has discovered. Then, Marc learns of an even bigger conspiracy: the absorption of Canada into the United States.
The fraud project morphs into a major battle against a consortium of US corporations, private equity firms, and the religious right.
Under threat at every turn, Marc and his team grapple with blackmail, extortion, and murder, but continue to fight to protect Canada and its citizens. Will their efforts encourage a new USMCA trade agreement, or will Canada move away from the US and Mexico and instead trade with Europe, Asia, and South America? Most importantly: Will Canada retain its independence, or will the US succeed in seamlessly absorbing it?
What will democracy in Canada look like after all of this is over?
