Canada Reads Kicks Off Its 22nd Season
The popular Canadian book debate show, Canada Reads, has returned for its 22nd season. Ali Hassan, the show’s host, brought the opening round of Canada Reads to life on March 27, 2023, at 10 a.m. ET. The five champions selected their favorite books, and over four days, they will have to convince the judges why their book is the “one to shift your perspective.” The debates will take place on CBC TV, CBC Radio, and CBC Books.
Day One Recap
During the first round of debates, the champions voted to eliminate the first title from the competition. Participating panellists had an opportunity to make an opening pitch for their respective book before being questioned aggressively on why their book should be the one to make Canadians read today. This year, the message of each book is to shift people’s perspectives. At the end of the hour, the five panellists will vote one book off the show.
The Books and Champions
Each panellist has selected a book that they believe encapsulates this year’s theme effectively. The panellists and their respective selections are:
1. Silvia Moreno-Garcia selected Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
2. Gurdeep Pandher selected Greenwood by Michael Christie
3. Kate Beaton selected Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel
4. Dimitri Nasrallah selected Ducks, Newburyport by Lucy Ellmann
5. Mattea Roach selected The Unwilling by John Hart
Broadcast Information
The debates take place live at 10.05 a.m. ET (one hour earlier than recent years). The debates will air on CBC TV, CBC Radio, and CBC Books. If you missed an episode, streaming services are also available to watch the debates on the platform of your choice. Find all the broadcast details here.
Past Canada Reads Winner
Christian Allaire won last year’s Canada Reads title by championing the novel Five Little Indians, written by Michelle Good. For this year’s debates, the panellists have selected books dealing with difficult topics like trauma and abuse that they feel will have necessary and beneficial impacts on the perspective shifts of Canadians.
Wrap Up
Canada Reads is back, and the book selections are once again magnificent. The themes are forcing Canadians to think more critically about what they read and to encourage people to venture out of their comfort zones. While the debates, broadcasted on CBC TV, CBC Radio, and CBC Books, aired over four days, you may still catch the replays or stream the debates on the platform of your choice.
In conclusion, the Day One replay was truly an incredible event that showcased the power of community and the importance of preserving our environment. It was a unique and unforgettable experience that brought people together from all corners of the globe. Whether you were there from the beginning or catch up on the replay, the message of hope and action is still as relevant as ever.
