What did Canada’s 44th election reveal about democratic engagement — and disengagement? In mid-pandemic, amid social discontent and environmental disruption, are we holding politicians and Parliamentary institutions accountable?

Bring your questions as three distinguished political scientists analyze the post-election outlook for Canadian democracy. 

This event is open to the public and hosted by the Faculty of Arts.
