Event Highlights
On Monday, Jan. 20, join us at the University of Toronto Mississauga for Thinking Out Loud Together, a special lecture and discussion featuring the Honourable Judge Marion Buller. A member of Mistawasis First Nation, Chief Commissioner of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls and Chancellor of the University of Victoria, Judge Buller will share her unique insights on fostering understanding, creating space for meaningful dialogue and navigating complex conversations that challenge and inspire us.
This event will be introduced by UTM Vice President and Principal Alexandra Gillespie and the Q&A will be moderated by U of T Provostial Advisor on Civil Discourse Randy Boyagoda. Together, we’ll explore how meaningful discourse can drive change, build community, and deepen shared understanding across diverse perspectives.
