Ukraine, War and Peace
With war in Ukraine and democracy under threat from authoritarianism and militarism, Canadian Foreign Minister Mélanie Joly and three of her European counterparts, including Estonia’s Minister of Foreign Affairs Eva-Maria Liimets will join the Democracy Forum at TMU to assess the global response. Bring your questions about how countries can resist — and restore — security on the frontlines of Europe and around the world. Moderated by Toronto Star columnist and TMU Visiting Practitioner Martin Regg Cohn, this free event is sponsored by the Faculty of Arts and open to the public.

The Democracy Forum will be hosted in-person at the TMU Student Learning Centre (341 Yonge St., Toronto) and live streamed. A limited number of in-person tickets are available.
