The Department of Culture

Formed just before the election was called, The Department of Culture is a group of “artists, arts professionals and cultural workers concerned about ensuring the social and cultural health and prosperity of our nation in the face of a Federal Government that is aggressively undermining the values that define Canada.” Naomi Klein was a keynote speaker at their town hall meeting earlier in the month.

Attendees included author Russell Smith.
