The Glendon School of Public and International Affairs invites you to a roundtable, part of its Symposium on Populism, Trust & Immigration.
About this Event

Liberal democracies are under pressure. Rising populism, declining trust in political institutions, and heated debates over immigration are reshaping the relationship between governments and citizens. As public services strain and polarization deepens, many question whether democratic institutions can still deliver - and for whom.

Join GSPIA for a timely discussion featuring Philippe Couillard, former Premier of Quebec; Kathleen Wynne, former Premier of Ontario; and Victoria Kuketz, Obama Foundation Scholar. Together, political leaders, academics, and practitioners will explore how these interconnected challenges are testing policy capacity, legitimacy, and the future of liberal democracy - and what can be done to restore public confidence.

3:45 pm - 5:00 pm
