Welcome. We offer small group discussions about Canada’s problems and opportunities. Instead of listening to a podcast or listening to a panel discussion or listening to an expert, in our group discussions, you get to speak! I call them Salons.

Back in the day, groups like the Council of Canadians, the Rotary Club, the Horticultural Society, the Knights of Columbus, the Girl Guides, the Lions Club, PROBUS used to have in-person meetings. They lasted for two or three hours. They were held weekly or monthly, in the same location. There was a mission or a purpose or a program.

Our program at Canada100million are the social and economic issues that citizens, voters, seniors, working people, students, parents want to understand better.

These small group discussions are a free offering.

A typical Salon:

0:00 to 5:00 Greeting.
5:00 to 15:00 The facilitator opens with the topic of the day.
15:00 to 35:00 Round 1 Participants enter breakout rooms for discussion.
35:00 to 55:00 Round 2 Participants enter breakout rooms for discussion.
55:00 to 60:00 The facilitator brings everyone back to the main room for final announcements.

Every Salon has a blog post with recommended reading or viewing. The discussion questions are provided in the Salon. We can hold up to 20 people.
