HOW IT WORKS

What?

A non-partisan initiative dedicated to fostering in-person dialogue on complex and often uncomfortable topics, ensuring all voices are heard.
Each session will be led by a host and will focus on a single topic (i.e., "freedom"), guided by structured questions to keep discussions on track.
Each participant will receive a copy of the conversation guidelines, including guided questions upon registering (i.e., “What does freedom mean to you? How does this definition differ or align with the Canadian concept of freedom?”).
Sessions will be limited to 8-10 people. (In the future, there is a possibility of having on group and splitting it in half so there are two concurrent conversations).
Session durations will be around 90 - 120 minutes.

These dialogues are open to all individuals, regardless of background, political affiliation, or beliefs who seek meaningful, challenging conversations in an open, non-partisan environment.

To counter polarization, rebuild community connections, revive third places, and create a culture where open, honest conversation can thrive.
The U.S. has an abundance of 'bridge building' groups, but Canada is sorely lacking. This initiative is an attempt to create such a space for Canadians who want to have meaningful dialogues with their fellow Canadians without fear of censorship or alienation.
