Frank Underhill: The Unsung Hero of Canadian Political Thought
![Jese Leos](https://magazine.bccbooking.com/author/patrick-hayes.jpg)
Frank Underhill was one of the most influential political thinkers in Canadian history. His ideas helped to shape the country's political landscape and his legacy continues to inspire scholars today. Underhill was born in St. Catharines, Ontario, in 1889. He studied at the University of Toronto and Oxford University, where he developed a deep interest in political theory and history. After returning to Canada, Underhill taught at the University of Saskatchewan and the University of Toronto.
Underhill's political thought was eclectic, drawing on a variety of sources, including liberalism, socialism, and nationalism. He was a strong believer in the importance of individual liberty and democracy, but he also recognized the need for a strong state to promote social justice. Underhill was a vocal critic of both capitalism and communism, and he argued that Canada should adopt a middle way between the two extremes. He believed that Canada's unique history and geography gave it a special role to play in the world, and he called for the country to develop a more independent foreign policy.
