  Mind control is the practice of influencing, manipulating, or dominating an individual’s thoughts, behaviors, or perceptions, often without their conscious awareness. Throughout history, different societies have employed various forms of psychological influence to control groups and individuals, from religious indoctrination to political propaganda and media conditioning. While some forms of persuasion are ethical and openly acknowledged, mind control often operates in subtle, deceptive ways, making it difficult for individuals to recognize or resist. 
  At its core, mind control exploits human cognitive vulnerabilities. The mind is naturally susceptible to suggestion, repetition, and emotional influence. When exposed to specific messages or ideas repeatedly, a person may begin to internalize them as truth, even in the absence of logical evidence. This principle is used in advertising, politics, religious movements, and personal relationships to shape opinions and behaviors. Whether through fear, guilt, reward, or isolation, those seeking control can manipulate their targets into conforming to specific beliefs or actions. 
  One of the most effective tools of mind control is misinformation. By distorting reality or presenting selective facts, individuals or institutions can shape perceptions to suit their own agendas. Governments have historically used propaganda to maintain control over populations, while corporations use psychological tactics to influence consumer behavior. In personal relationships, emotional abusers use manipulation techniques such as gaslighting to make their victims question their own perceptions and reality.

  Education for all is a bold, audacious statement. But that is the very goal of open education. Can you imagine a world where access to education materials is free? Where teachers and learners have the right to reuse, revise, remix, localize and translate those materials? Where copies of textbooks and course materials can be retained without cost? Can you imagine a world where teachers and learners co-create education together? A world where learners engage in assignments that generate global public goods benefiting everyone? You may say this isn’t possible, but open educators around the world have been doing this for years. Building on the work of luminaries such as those featured in this book, open education has grown into a global movement transforming education.
  
  Each year, Open Education Global opens up nominations for awards to the entire global open education community.

This book is a celebration of their achievements.

  Much of the world reacted with surprise and admiration to the results of the 2015 Canadian federal election and the makeup of the government it produced. Led by a young charismatic leader with a storied family legacy on Parliament Hill, the Liberal government scored a historic victory, rising from third-party status to substantial majority. With a gender-equal cabinet and an ambitious agenda, it heralded a new approach to the country’s federal politics. 
  		 
  After an exciting and productive five years spent focused on domestic and global issues, Finance Minister Bill Morneau decided to take his leave from the same government.

When did the penny drop, persuading one of Trudeau’s brightest lights to shift his talents and energies elsewhere? 
  		 
  In his own persuasive voice, Bill Morneau paints a positive picture, tracing his widely lauded entry into the political arena, the arc of his career in politics, major accomplishments and missed opportunities, his surprising exit, and a host of revealing episodes between the events. Told with measures of both pride and regret, he explores personalities, achievements, and failures with candor. 
  		 
  Morneau’s experience crystalized his vision for Canada and its potential for growth and prosperity.
