In What We Talk About When We Talk About War, Noah Richler explores how Canada’s view of itself has changed from a nation of peacekeepers to a country at war. In Our Way to Fight, Michael Riordon tells stories of non–violent peace activists on both sides of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. How is war portrayed by governments and the media? What is it that stirs citizens to stop fighting and work for peace? Moderated by Jamie Swift.
