Growing up in post-World War II Alberta in a stable, loving home, Tom Symington didn’t feel that he was “different.” Evading early pressures of romance and sexual exploration, repressing instances of name-calling (“femmy”), and hostility from schoolmates, Tom was almost able to believe in a world that valued the rights and freedoms of all citizens. From Calgary to Sierra Leone to France, this candid, heartbreaking memoir braids the evolution of gay rights in Canada with the life journey of one individual. Following high school, as Tom entered university and became a teacher, he was forced to reconcile his sexual orientation with the prevailing social and legal environment in Alberta, Canada, and the world beyond. As decades passed, “femmy” merged with “gay,” “queer,” and “LGBTQ+ community” in a rallying movement and an enduring struggle towards pride and self-acceptance against the current of societal expectations and discriminatory legislation. Not So Normal is as much a coming-of-age odyssey and a celebration of selfhood as it is a grave reminder that there is still much work to be done in the realm of human rights, and an urgent call to action to recentre love in our increasingly diverse and divisive world.

History is in the process of repeating itself-because no one was listening the first time. Far in the future, humanity has spread like wildfire across the stars. Earth, now under the control of the Russian Federal Earth Conjugate, is in a state of chaos. In its shadow, everything that once resembled a government and nation has been crushed or is in hiding. As the dust of order struggles to settle on Earth, an intergalactic supreme governing power known as the Imperium arises to serve as the guardian over the countless citizens of the colonies. Mastery of science and technology has created an age of wonder, where human cloning is a reality-and a new class of experimental drugs is creating a race of super soldiers, each with the strength of a hundred men. Even so, the apparent peace is all but an illusion. On the eve of order, an ancient enemy reappears, and humanity's darkest days are just around the corner-again. Once, mankind did all it could to erase all memory of the horrors it once inflicted upon the Earth, but humanity can never be allowed to forget the Nazi Party. On Earth, only a naïve, young soldier named Gregory Simons has the will to fight back. But can Gregory move swiftly enough to save billions from the horror that is about to be unleashed? Will his beloved Imperium or the galaxy itself be ready for the Resurrection?

Following a military career of over thirty years, which includes deployments to Bosnia and Afghanistan, Colonel Pat Stogran becomes Canada's first Veterans Ombudsman. The new Office of the Veterans Ombudsman is intended to be a symbol of Canada's commitment to the members and veterans of the Canadian Forces, who accept unlimited liability in the service of our country and often make traumatic, life-altering sacrifices. Colonel Stogran is proud to take the assignment, seeing it as an opportunity to give back to all those who serve. But in the next three years, as he encounters nothing but intransigence and malfeasance in the hallowed halls of government, he undergoes a rude awakening to the cesspool of callousness, deceit, and neglect that is the Government of Canada's response to the needs of its veterans. Stogran's exposure to the real Government of Canada, which is hidden from the view of mainstream Canadians, reveals that it is nothing like the myth that has been built up around it as a caring and committed model for the rest of the world. It is an experience he describes as more traumatic than the years he spent in war zones, and it will cause him to question what it really means to be a Canadian. Part shocking exposé, part dire and urgent warning, Rude Awakening reveals a culture of government that victimizes our veterans and could also very well threaten the quality of life we all enjoy as Canadians....
