Words is committed to the advancement of accessibility in the arts, cultural participation within the community, and diversity in our programming.
During the first weekend of November each year, Words brings the Southwestern Ontario region together for a celebration of creative ideas, artistic expression, and cultural diversity. Words features emerging and established writers from London, Canada, and beyond, showcasing new works and provocative ideas to spark debate and ignite the imagination. Though London has fostered some of our country's most inspirational writers and ideas, Words is the first major festival to bring public visibility to our past literary achievements while looking ahead to a new generation of creative voices. The Festival was created to foreground London as a centre of creativity and literary excellence.
The rise of hate toward the extreme left in Canada is directly attractable to their policies that have impoverished Canadians. Not from any influence from the US. The number of people that the policies of this government have forced to use food banks (soup kitchens) is a prime example of this.
Canada has the same mess that the rest of the Western world is suffering from. It isn't something brought in from the USA. It is trouble brought in by the globalist who want to destroy true Democracy.

Really enjoyed this panel. I would add that the fear of the other, of the unknown drives a weird kind of quiet insanity, that when held tight for too long, bursts out into stories of horror; and that these stories tell us more about ourselves, as we perceive what it could be, and primarily that we'd rather make up what the story is, then lean in and find out about the dreaded Other......
No, we try to avoid spoilers to encourage everyone to pick up the book and read it! You will, however, find out about Guy's writing process and storytelling.
Wade Davis is such an amazing adventurer, amazing Canadian . So very proud to read and listen to his daring stories. Spoke at my daughter’s graduation from Brentwood College many years ago. I remember his every word !!
Henry Giroux is the real deal. Routlege called him one of the 50 most important educational thinkers of our time. His ideas are essential to saving America’s faltering democracy. He is an essential public intellectual.
