Exploring the Canada–U.S. Relationship with Norman Hillmer
On Thursday, March 6, Know History was proud to host an exclusive webinar featuring acclaimed historian Norman Hillmer, author of For Better or For Worse: Canada and the United States into the Twenty-First Century.
In a thoughtful and timely conversation, Professor Hillmer explored the deep ties, ongoing tensions, and shared values that have long defined the Canada–U.S. relationship. Drawing on decades of scholarship, he offered fresh insights into how two distinct nations continue to mirror each other in their pluralistic values, global outlooks, and commitment to democracy.
Thank you to everyone who joined us for this engaging and thought-provoking discussion!
