Canada Reads is back! This year, the great Canadian book debate is looking for one book to shift your perspective.
The stories we tell, and the way we tell them, can shape how we see ourselves, our communities and the world. This
collection of books is an opportunity to broaden our horizons, expand our worldview and think differently about the world
around us and our place in it.
The 2023 contenders are:
Jeopardy! super-champ Mattea Roach champions Ducks by Kate Beaton
Actor Keegan Connor Tracy champions Greenwood by Michael Christie
Bhangra dancer Gurdeep Pandher champions Hotline by Dimitri Nasrallah
TikTok creator Tasnim Geedi champions Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
Actor Michael Greyeyes champions Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
The debates will take place March 27-30, 2023. They will be hosted by Ali Hassan and will be broadcast on CBC Radio One,
CBC TV, CBC Gem and on CBC Books.

The Municipality of Centre Hastings will be implementing a bag
tag program effective July 1, 2023. Please visit our website for
