SUMMARY:The Power of Story: Exploring Indigenous Literatures of Canada
DESCRIPTION:By engaging with stories we give ourselves the opportunity to grow in empathy and wisdom. In this regard\, Indigenous stories have much to teach us. During this talk we will explore the stories Indigenous peoples are sharing with the world and what makes these narratives unique.\nOur presenter is Kaylie Paton and she is a fourth year student at the UofA. Kaylie has a deep passion for learning and she is especially interested in topics related to literature\, religion\, and creative writing. Recently she has been directing her research towards Indigenous literature and she is always looking forward to growing in her  knowledge of the subject.

SUMMARY:Western Alienation and Alberta Sovereignty: Myth\, Power\, and Political Reality Lecture #1: The Roots\, Delusions\, and Future of the Separatist Movement in Alberta With Alvin Finkel\, Professor Emeritus
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\nFrom its origins as a federally administered settler colony with limited Indigenous control\, Alberta has experienced recurring waves of political tension with Ottawa. Early colonial settlers voiced resentment toward federal policies they believed favored “Eastern interests.”\nDuring oil booms and busts\, petroleum interests—often dominant within Alberta’s major political parties—leveraged Western alienation to intensify conflict with the federal government\, at times echoing separatist rhetoric.\nThis lecture explores:\nThe historical roots of Alberta separatism\nThe role of oil politics in shaping provincial identity\nThe myths and realities behind Western alienation\nWhat the future may hold for separatist movements
