Read full description

The 50-minute documentary explores the political, economic, and environmental forces shaping Canada and our relationship with the United States. But this evening isn't just about looking backward. We want to talk about where we go from here. Following the screening, we'll hear perspectives from representatives from across political parties about their visions for Canada’s future - and then open the conversation to you. What should Canada’s path forward look like? What do we want to protect? What needs to change? And what can communities like Guelph, which is one of the most impacted cities in Canada by US tariffs, do? Come listen, ask questions, meet neighbours and leaders, and share your own vision for the country we want to build. The film is narrated by Jesse Wente, an Anishinaabe writer, broadcaster, producer, speaker and arts leader. Tickets are Pay What You Can (suggested $10). This helps cover events costs. Any extra funds will go towards community programs that support Guelph through the impact of US tariffs. If you'd like to help volunteer at event, email [email protected]
