Examines Canada's mixed record since 1950 in transferring over 50 billion dollars in capital and expertise to developing countries through ODA. It focuses in particular on the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), the organisation chiefly responsible for delivering Canada's development assistance. Aid and Ebb Tide calls for a renewed and reformed Canadian commitment to development co-operation at a time when the gap between the world's richest and poorest has been widening alarmingly and millions are still being born into poverty and human insecurity.
