About this Event
The Democratic Engagement Exchange, in partnership with The Toronto Star, is pleased to welcome The Atlantic's David Frum and The Toronto Star's Susan Delacourt for the keynote address Democracy's Reckoning: Crisis in the US. Lessons for Canada.
On June 5th, David Frum will speak to the impact of democratic backsliding in the US on Canada’s democracy, the importance of informed civic participation, and what the future holds for Canada’s electoral democracy. Toronto Star journalist Susan Delacourt will moderate the discussion.
A renowned political commentator, prolific writer for The Atlantic and frequent commentator on MSNBC and The Hub, David Frum has been instrumental in shaping the political discourse in both Canada and the United States. His critiques, rooted in a deep understanding of conservative principles, have made him a respected figure in political circles. Well-known for his sharp criticism of both Trump and the Tea Party, he provides a unique and often contrarian perspective on the challenges faced by liberal democracies.
