Is There a War on Science?

February 16th, 7:00 PM ET

The webinar is FREE on Zoom.

Registration is required. Click HERE.

Using vaccine hesitancy as a case study, Maya Goldenberg argues against the common view that public controversy over scientific claims is part of a culture war on science. These controversies instead highlight a social fracturing that divides scientific institutions from the public. Goldenberg presents the alternative view that vaccine hesitancy signals a crisis of trust that invites different thinking about the nature of science, its relationships to the public, and what effective public health outreach should entail.

JOHN BOYKO
The Devil’s Trick: How Canada Fought the Vietnam War

January 12th at 7:00pm ET

The webinar is FREE on Zoom.

Registration is required. Click HERE.

Through the lens of six remarkable people, some well-known, and others obscure, John Boyko will recount Canada’s often-overlooked involvement in the Vietnam War that began before the Americanization of that slow-motion tragedy and lasted long after the Americans left. Canada was a perhaps naive peacemaker, combatant, a cynical provider of weaponry, and a sanctuary. In uncovering Canada’s complex involvement in the Vietnam War, the many secrets and often forgotten ways that Canada not only fought the war but was shaped by its lessons and lies will be revealed.

Give War a Chance: Are Peace-Building and Stabilization a Bust after Afghanistan?

December 1st, 7:30 PM ET

The webinar is FREE on Zoom.

Registration is required, but you do not need a Zoom account to watch.

Even before the Taliban’s rapid return to power in Afghanistan, most western governments—including Canada—appeared to have abandoned their willingness to engage in peacekeeping, peace-building and/or ‘stabilization’ interventions that involved placing western ‘boots on the ground’ in support of populations who were facing large scale threats of violence. This presentation will consider why that dis-engagement has taken place, and what it means for Canada and especially the Canadian Forces.
