Jesse Corrigan is a folk musician and singer-songwriter hailing from Toronto, Ontario. With a passion for music from a young age, Jesse began playing the guitar at the age of 10 when he asked his mom to teach him a few chords on the nylon string guitar she had lying around. An A chord, D chord and E chord later he knew “Amazing Grace” and there was no turning back.
JD Crosstown is a singer-songwriter and guitarist whose music weaves together the roots of folk, country, and blues. Hailing from Neyaashiinigmiing (Chippewas of Nawash Territory) in Ontario, Crosstown picked up the guitar at an early age, nurtured by the sounds and stories of his family and community. What began as a local passion has grown into a lifelong artistic journey, leading to performances across Canada and Europe with a growing reputation on both sides of the Atlantic.

We spend over $30 billion per year on our military, distribute over $11 billion per year in international assistance to countries in need, and maintain a staff of over 13,000 diplomats, trade policy experts, and developnment assistance professionals at Global Affairs Canada. These investments are supposed to promote and defend “the national interest.” This lecture will help you understand what the national interest really means and why Canada behaves the way it does on the world stage by examining the past, present, and future of Canadian foreign policy.

Discover how to analyze handwriting, postmarks, and even the language of telegrams to trace migration, community connections, and family ties.

Canadian Trade Policy in an Age of Chaos
Canada has long been known as a trading nation. With ample natural resources and not enough people to consume everything that we produce, we rely on external markets to drive our economy forward. For much of our recent history, free trade with our closest partner, the United States, has therefore been critical to our national prosperity. In 2017, Donald Trump’s Republican administration nearly ended the North American Free Trade Agreement, one of the most successful agreements in either country’s history. The second Trump administration has been even more aggressive in rejecting free trade and has made a point of singling out Canada for criticism. This lecture will help you understand how trade policy works (and doesn’t work), and why it plays such a significant role in the Canadian economy and, by extension, in all of our lives.
