SUMMARY:Indian Lunch with Wendy Davis
DESCRIPTION:You are warmly invited to an Indian Lunch featuring our Edmonton author Wendy Davis as she presents her acclaimed book Dal and Rice\, published in 2008.\nDal & Rice\, Wendy M. Davis’s collection of reminiscences\, is a snapshot of a way of life long vanished. Davis is a daughter of the British Raj. Her father\, Sir Godfrey\, was a high official and witness to the great changes that came about as a result of India’s struggle for independence. When Mahatma Gandhi was jailed after the first civil disobedience campaign\, Sir Godfrey visited him daily. A decade later\, he even played London tour guide for the illustrious ex-prisoner. Born in 1928\, Davis grew up with the requisite mix of ayahs\, boarding schools\, and summer holidays away from the Indian heat. She is in her element when describing pony races at the convent school in Kashmir\, or recounting idyllic stories of the household menagerie. Davis provides an amusing account of life in Karachi during the Second World War\, but her experience in India draws to its close around the same time as the war itself.

SUMMARY:Western Alienation and Alberta Sovereignty: Myth\, Power\, and Political Reality Lecture #2: Sovereignty and Democracy Alberta Style: A Reality or a Deception? With Elizabeth Smythe\, Professor Emerita
DESCRIPTION:Special Lecture Series\nWestern Alienation and Alberta Sovereignty: Myth\, Power\, and Political Reality\nJoin us for a timely and thought-provoking two-part lecture series examining Alberta’s separatist history\, contemporary sovereignty debates\, and the future of democracy in the province.\nFee for series: $25 for members or $36 for non-members\nAn Alberta pension plan.\nAn Alberta police force.\nGreater provincial control over federal judicial appointments.\nFrequent use of the notwithstanding clause to override Charter rights. What do these proposals have in common?\nThe current UCP Alberta government argues they are necessary steps toward greater autonomy and stronger democracy for Albertans. But are they?\nThis lecture critically examines:\nThe Alberta pension proposal\nThe Alberta Next panel and its recommendations\nThe use of disinformation and misinformation in public debate\nThe implications for democratic accountability and the rule of law\nProfessor Smythe argues that many of these initiatives are accompanied by misleading narratives and questionable public consultation processes that may undermine\, rather than enhance\, democratic governance.
