Environmentalism has become a much debated issue in recent political elections. Wednesday’s Classes without Quizzes lecture explores how the environment can divide party lines in “Environmentalism and Elections in Canada: Assessing Recent Trends.”
Concern for the environment has grown around the world. Cameron Anderson, assistant professor of political science at The University of Western Ontario, will explore the extent to which environmental concern is a left-right ideological issue in the minds of Canadians and assess the impact of environmentalism on the ways citizens view and vote for Canada’s major political parties.
The event takes place Wednesday, March 17 at the Civic Garden Complex, 625 Springbank Drive. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the lecture begins at 7 p.m.
Classes without Quizzes is a complimentary lecture series for the community offered by The University of Western Ontario. Participate in topical, entertaining and insightful monthly lectures by some of Western’s leading faculty, each taking place in different London locations through to Spring 2010.
