Journey After Midnight is a deeply personal and thoughtful memoir of Dosanjh’s journey from his beloved India to the upper echelons of Canadian politics, a story that is both wise and compelling, about a man passionate about social justice and democratic process, who continues to rail against injustice and corruption wherever it is happening in the world.

“A politician’s autobiography is often a series of justifications of interest to few readers. The story of Ujjal Dosanjh… is far more interesting and relevant. Here is a man who has experienced immigration, integration and terrorism firsthand.”
