Events

The mission of the CIC is to promote an understanding of international affairs and Canada’s role in a changing world by providing Canadians with a non-partisan, nationwide forum for informed discussion, analysis and debate. Accordingly, the cornerstone of the CIC’s work is our events program. The CIC national office and our branches hold more than 150 events per year in cities across the country. In particular, our branch events give members an opportunity to directly engage with global issues that often intersect with local concerns. The CIC also supports events outside of Canada, often in partnership with other global think tanks, that can introduce Canadian perspectives to global audiences. CIC events take on many different forms, from academic lectures and panel discussions to town hall meetings and pub nights. Please consult our events calendar for a listing of CIC-organized and sponsored events.

CIC Calgary: Globalization versus Isolation: What is Canada’s Role in an Increasingly Isolationist World?

March 27, 2017 @ 8:00 am - 10:30 am EDT

With the rise of isolationist sentiments worldwide, what roles and responsibilities should Canada and Alberta have? What is the best way to navigate in this changing political and economic environment? What are the potential opportunities and threats that lie ahead? Join the Canadian International Council (CIC) in this engaging speaker series as we discuss these questions with prominent political minds and policy shapers. This roundtable discussion will be followed by an open question period to give you an opportunity to engage in this discussion.
