About this Event

The Embassy of Mexico in Canada invites you to the official book launch:

“From the Sierra Madre to the Boreal Universe”

An Anthology of Mexican-Canadian Writers

Join us for an evening dedicated to the voices of Mexican-Canadian writers who navigate the rich landscapes of identity, language, migration, and cultural fusion. This literary journey spans the majestic Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico to the vast boreal forests of Canada, capturing stories that reflect resilience, memories, and the vibrant interaction between two homelands.


The evening will feature a special conversation with the contributing authors—Antolina Ortiz-Moore, Angel Mota, Romero Salaspuente, Dafne Romero, Alejandra Bernal, Alejandro Estivill (virtual), Omar Alexis Ramos, illustrator Brigitte Fournier, and Ingrid Berlanga (Cultural Attaché of the Embassy of Mexico)—offering insight into their creative processes and reflecting on the dialogue between their two cultural identities.

In the presence of: H.E. Carlos Manuel Joaquín González, Ambassador of Mexico to Canada.

Moderators: Antolina Ortiz and Ángel Mota.
