The Thomas More Institute's Spring Interview Series brings leading scholars into direct conversation with the public, and is held in an interactive format that pairs lectures with open discussion. It has long supported scholars, emerging scholars, and leading educators by offering a forum for exchange and connection with others in related fields of study. Across four sessions, guest speakers will invite us to reflect on questions relevant to today’s society in Canada and Quebec. This year’s theme, “Encountering the Other,” explores how we meet, understand, and learn from perspectives different from our own.
This upcoming session on Wednesday April 1, 2026, will be an interview with Dr. Niigaan Sinclair, professor at the University of Manitoba, writer, and columnist for the Winnipeg Free Press. Dr. Sinclair will discuss his recent book, "Wînipêk: Visions of Canada from an Indigenous Centre". Described as a “beacon on the path to reconciliation,” "Wînipêk" offers a narrative of both hardship and profound resilience, re-orienting our understanding of the country from its geographic and cultural heart.
This event is co-sponsored by the Department of Theological Studies at the University of Concordia.
