Nova Scotia at the Crossroads

Nova Scotia & Canada at the Crossroads: Sustainability or Militarism?

Tuesday, June 29 7:30-9:00 p.m.
Room 224, Student Union Building, Dalhousie University, 6136
University Avenue, Halifax

Free public lecture. Join us in a critical dialogue about the
troubling rise of militarism in our country and our province and how
this threatens the progress we are trying to make on sustainability.
Come to learn about the doubling of Canada's military spending and the
Canada First Defence Strategy but the federal government has cut
environmental and climate change programs. Learn about US weapons
manufacturers lobbying our federal and provincial governments. What
should be our defence and foreign policies? What is the appropriate
role for our military? How can we create a culture of peace and
sustainability?
