SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn: Delivering and Listening to Land Acknowledgements
DESCRIPTION:Tuesday\, April 21\, 20262:00–3:30 pm ETFree\, open to all—register for Zoom link\nLearn about delivering and listening to land acknowledgements in this presentation led by Suzanne Keeptwo. \n\n\n\nLand acknowledgements of today are intended to be an act of reconciliation with Indigenous peoples of the territory upon which non-Indigenous Canadians reside. Yet\, too many iterations are routine and formulaic\, and sorely absent of environmental and social justice initiatives.  \n\n\n\nBeyond simply words\, land acknowledgements are an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of Indigenous truths\, Canadian realities\, and concepts of relationality. \n\n\n\nIn this Lunch & Learn\, writer Suzanne Keeptwo will highlight essential truths and knowledge for implementing an effective\, Iiving\, breathing land acknowledgement. She will inspire the creation of impactful land acknowledgements intended to raise awareness about connections to\, and responsibilities toward\, the land.   \n\n\n\nThis presentation is free and open to all. Organization leaders and decision-makers are particularly encouraged to join. Those who are responsible for—or conscientious about—the development of meaningful land acknowledgements will understand them as ongoing testaments to reconciliation between all peoples and the Earth. A Q&A period will follow the presentation. \n\n\n\nAbout the Presenter\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSuzanne Keeptwo is a professional writer\, editor\, and consultant. From 2006 to 2016\, she was a contributing journalist for the Anishinabek News and has since worked with numerous publishers as a freelance editor. Suzanne also works directly with writers to help develop their manuscripts\, including the soon-to-be published Older Than The Moon (Breakwater Books). Suzanne is the author of We All Go Back to the Land\, The Who\, Why\, and How of Land Acknowledgements (2021). She is now focused on her own creative writing and storytelling. Her True Tales of Wonder was first performed in 2024 at Odyssey Theatre’s Creative Arts Festival.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n  \nRegister for Zoom link\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Belonging: Who Really Belongs in Quebec?
DESCRIPTION:This event is held in partnership between the Blue Metropolis International Literary Festival and the Quebec Writers’ Federation. \nIn keeping with the theme of this edition of the Festival\, ‘Words to Understand Each Other\,’ two gripping and passionate discussions about Québécois identity and who can claim it. Two consecutive and uninterrupted discussions in English and French. \nFirst discussion: What does it mean to be a Québécois? Is being born here enough? Whatever success you may have here\, however many generations you are removed from those who arrived here\, are you ever fully accepted as l’un des nôtres? Last year\, author Kim Thúy suffered dramatic backlash after speaking out about the injustice she has witnessed—and experienced—in spite of being widely lauded as an iconic author in francophone Quebec. Award-winning journalist Toula Drimonis has written movingly about the challenges for immigrants and their descendants in Quebec\, both in her column in The Gazette and in her 2023 book We\, the Others (Nous\, les autres\, translated to French by Mellisa Verreault). Be a fly on the wall as they share their ideas about where Quebec is on this issue\, and where it might be going. \nSecond discussion: Immigrants or those who are considered “outsiders” have had to face the different challenges of trying to make Quebec their home. Over time\, they have begun to experience a strong sense of belonging and become fully integrated into their adoptive chez nous. They have subsequently seen changes in Quebec that have made them question that sense of belonging. Writer and director Guy Rex Rodgers transformed Quebec’s linguistic landscape with his book\, What We Choose to Forget\, an account of a three-year tour of his film What We Choose to Remember. Journalist Francine Pelletier has reflected on the question of who Québécois in her book Dream Interrupted: The Rise and Fall of Quebec Nationalism. \nDiscussions in English and French. \nParticipants: Discussion 1: Kim Thúy\, Toula Drimonis; Discussion 2: Guy Rex Rodgers\, Francine Pelletier \nModerator: Anne Lagacé Dowson \nThe Participants\nPhoto by John Kenney \nToula Drimonis is a Montreal-based journalist\, opinion columnist\, and writer. A former news director for TC Media\, her byline appears in national and international publications\, with a focus on politics\, social justice\, immigration\, and women’s issues. She currently writes a weekly column for the Montreal Gazette and Cult MTL\, and a monthly for The Walrus. She’s worked in television\, radio\, and print in English\, French and Greek. She was on the advisory board for Use the Right Words\, a national media guide on how to report on sexual violence. In 2022 she published her first book\, We\, the Others: Allophones\, Immigrants\, and Belonging in Canada. Her second book\, Seeking Asylum: Building a Shareable World was published in 2024. \n\n \nKim Thúy a quitté le Vietnam avec les boat people à l’âge de dix ans et s’est installée avec sa famille au Québec. Diplômée en traduction et en droit\, l’écrivaine a travaillé comme couturière\, interprète\, avocate et propriétaire de restaurant. Kim Thúy a reçu plusieurs prix\, dont le Prix littéraire du Gouverneur général 2010\, et a été l’une des quatre finalistes du Nobel Alternatif en 2018. Ses livres\, dont les ventes montent à plus de un million de copies partout dans le monde\, sont traduits en 31 langues et 43 pays et territoires. Kim Thúy vit à Montréal et se consacre à l’écriture. \n\nAnne Lagacé Dowson is a bilingual Montrealer by choice\, born in Toronto with a Québécoise mother and an Ontarian dad. A long-time aficionado of the arts\, libraries and everything connected to them\, she is an avid reader with an MA in Social and Women’s History. Anne was a reporter\, editor\, researcher\, host and commentator at CBC\, BellMedia and Radio-Canada for over 25 years\, prioritising authors\, libraries\, education\, public interest issues\, and literacy in her on-air work. She is very proud of her two daughters\, who are bilingual products of Québec’s public school system. \n\nFrancine Pelletier is a journalist based in Montreal\, Quebec\, Canada and former co-host of CBC’s Fifth Estate (1995-2000). She is the co-founder of a feminist magazine\, La Vie en Rose\, and has written for La Presse\, Le Devoir\, and the Montreal Gazette. \n\nPhoto by Pantea Pezeshkan \nGuy Rex Rodgers arrived in Quebec as a young adult to study at the National Theatre School. He has been a writer\, columnist\, interviewer\, translator\, filmmaker and community activist: founder of the English Language Arts Network (ELAN). In 2015\, he was appointed a companion in l’Ordre des arts et des lettres du Québec. In 2020\, Rodgers began filming a series of eight documentaries about waves of immigration\, and how immigrants successfully adapted to Quebec since it adopted the first language laws half a century earlier. His three-year tour of Quebec with We Choose To Remember\, as the government imposed harsh new language laws\, is the story of What We Choose To Forget. \n\nGet tickets
