I find myself forgetting that Frye himself was from NB. Was he of any acadian decent? His social commentary is as valid, and insightfull as his literary commentary. He seems able to look at Canadian culture and see Canadians, as opposed to statistics. LOVE IT!
I am also liberal and at least faux-bourgeois. I can’t help but think that the Moncton years must have nurtured Fryes broad view of Canadian culture. I have always felt that as Canada’s only officially bilingual province, NB is one of the seats of true Canadiana.
