The story begins with the discovery of an emerging fashion stylist's dead body. Angie Woods, a stylist recognized for succeeding with difficult rejuvenation jobs, is found dead with a razor in her hand. Investigators suggest that Woods committed suicide because of the unattractive hairstyle she was wearing. Smithsonian (Maggie Lawson), a fashion columnist and amateur private investigator, is an acquaintance of Woods and suspects something more sinister; she believes that a notable client of Woods, a congressional staffer with a salacious web site, is somehow implicated. Detective Vic Donovan (Victor Webster) is assigned to the case. This causes complications due to his prior romantic affair with Smithsonian.

Ce drame raconte la haine viscérale entre deux hommes, leur passion pour le service public et leur rivalité, qui ont façonné le Canada. Entre 1856 et 1864, deux hommes de convictions s'affrontent pour décider de l'avenir du Canada. Ce drame de deux heures met en lumière la lutte acharnée opposant John A. Macdonald, le charismatique chef du Parti conservateur, et George Brown, fondateur du journal torontois Globe et chef de l'organisation politique qui deviendra le Parti libéral, connu pour sa détermination à toute épreuve. Ils poursuivent avec passion des visions radicalement opposées et nourrissent l'un pour l'autre une haine profonde. Lorsque Macdonald prend le contrôle du Parti conservateur et en fait la force dominante de l'assemblée, il élabore un plan d'action tellement brillant et audacieux qu'il mène à la création de la Confédération, et donc du Canada tel que nous le connaissons.

The movie is told through various points of view in a semi-documentary. Generosa (Poppy Montgomery) is a struggling artist who sells real estate, and one day, when client Ted (David Sutcliffe) fails to show up, she goes over to confront him. They soon fall in love, get married and are happy for several years during which time they adopt twin orphans: Alexa Ammon (Aislinn Paul) and Greg Ammon (Munro Chambers). Whether a result of being a mother or from an organic or drug-induced biochemical imbalance, Generosa becomes increasingly paranoid accusing Ted of, among other indiscretions, adultery. Her erratic behavior tears the marriage apart, thereby unleashing a very contentious divorce procedure with Generosa demanding custody of the twins, ownership of their house in the Hamptons and, if possible, all of Ted's wealth. She even resorts to lying to the children about Ted in an attempt to turn them against him.
