Common Ground with Justin Trudeau

I am pleased to have this opportunity to tell my life’s story, particularly as a teacher, Member of Parliament, and father. These experiences and the many people who have played a role in my life have all shaped my outlook on politics, public service, and what it means to be a Canadian

Justin Trudeau

Join us for the launch of Justin Trudeau's candid memoir, Common Ground.  Here, he shares the experiences that have shaped him over the course of his life and show how his passion for Canada and its people took root. 

Covering the years from his childhood at 24 Sussex to his McGill days during the tumultuous time of the Charlottetown Accord to his first campaign in Papineau to his role as Liberal leader today, we examine the foundational moments that have formed the man we have come to know and informed his vision for the future of Canada. 

Filled with anecdotes, personal reflections, and never-before-seen photographs from his own collection, Mr. Trudeau's memoir will show how the events of his life have led him to this moment and prepared him for the future.  

All proceeds from the book will be donated to the domestic programs of the Canadian Red Cross Society that serve local communities and people across the country that need it most.

All proceeds from ticket sales will support the Festival’s free children’s literacy programs.
