The US Midterm Election 2022: A World-Historical Event?
07:00pm -10:00pm
The US Midterm Election 2022: A World-Historical Event?
In 1789 French Revolution toppled the monarchy’s ancien régime and opened the door for liberal democracy and the “modern world.” In their 1917 revolution the Russian Bolsheviks gave the world its first “communist” state. In 2001, the attacks on 9/11 changed the world, bequeathing both a destabilizing “global war on terror” and fundamental redefinitions of “privacy” and “security” for the dawn of the Digital Age. History happens, and things change. Today – right now – in the United States, the rival Republican and Democratic parties are accusing each other not just of having bad economic or foreign policies, but instead of actually “betraying America” and trying to “topple democracy”. Whichever side has your sympathies, the stakes couldn’t be higher. After over two hundred years, could the world’s first true modern democracy actually be on its last legs? As understated by CBS news, “The 2022 midterm elections could be the most consequential in years, possibly defying political history and resetting modern political norms.” (19 September 2022)
How are we to make sense of this turmoil from here, up North? Could Canada too be swept into currents of “illiberal democracy” – as championed by Viktor Orban, the Hungarian leader seen as a model by supporters of former US President Donald Trump and other right-wing movements around the world. Is President Joe Biden truly the dangerously incompetent leader the Republicans & Fox News claim him to be, or is the United States really in danger of turning “semi-fascist”, as he recently warned? Either way, how “safe” is Canada? Such questions will be addressed by a public panel to be held at Douglas College in New Westminster, Friday night, 7 October 2022, at 7 pm, room N 2201.
Panelists include Hugh Gusterson, Professor at UBC’s School of Public Policy and Global Affairs, who will analyze the mid-term election in terms of the struggle within the Republican Party between Trumpists and more conventional Republicans. Jovian Radheshwar, a Douglas College political scientist, plans to use psychoanalytic and political theory to examine the increasingly polarized American people. Drawing from his work on Nazi Germany, Douglas College historian Jeff Schutts will provide a broader context for assessing whether the United States is in danger of becoming “fascist”. All three are American citizens now living/teaching in Canada. (If you also are a dual-citizen: be sure to register now so that you can vote in November: www.votefromabroad.org.) Come, listen to what they have to share from their professional expertise – each representing a different academic discipline, and join the discussion afterwards.
I will be writing a more formal press release first thing next week, but the plan is for each panelist to draw from their academic discipline and experience to highlight various ways to understand the troubling and unique importance of this year’s US Midterm Election. For now, it is likely that Gusterson will be addressing the nuts and bolts of the elections – which races are key and how the two parties are fundraising and otherwise shaping the electoral process, to include the role of former President Donald Trump. Radheshwar will use political theory to analyze today’s divisive society and the dangers this poses to democracy. Schutts will add a historical context for evaluating the claim that a new “fascist” age is dawning. All the panelists are American citizens now living and teaching in Canada.

Presented by the Vancouver Chamber Music Society (VCMS) in collaboration with Anvil Theatre, featuring:
Henry Kramer, piano
The winner of the Second Prize at the 2016 Queen Elisabeth Competition and a recipient of a 2019 Avery Fisher Career Grant, pianist Henry Kramer is establishing himself as one of the most exciting American musicians of his generation. His performances have been praised by critics as “triumphant” and “thrilling” (The New York Times), and “technically effortless” (La Presse, Montreal). Dr. Kramer currently holds the L. Rexford Whiddon Distinguished Chair in Piano at the Schwob School of Music at Columbus State University in Columbus, Georgia.
Yoojin Jang, violin
Applauded by The Strad for her “fiery virtuosity” and “consummate performances,” violinist YooJin Jang is a winner of the 2017 Concert Artists Guild Competition, and is also First Prize winner of the 2016 Sendai International Music Competition in Japan. These two victories have resulted in a busy itinerary of international recital and concerto engagements, and also the release of two new recordings, including a CD of her prize-winning Sendai concerto performances. “Jang is a performer without fear or technical limitation” (Boston Musical Intelligencer). She is an Assistant Professor of Violin at the Eastman School of Music.
Matthew Zalkind, cello
Praised for his “impressive refinement, eloquent phrasing, and singing tone” by The New York Times, American cellist Matthew Zalkind regularly performs throughout the United States and abroad as a recitalist, soloist and chamber musician. As a chamber musician, Zalkind has performed at America’s most prestigious stages including Carnegie Hall and New York’s Alice Tully Hall. Mr. Zalkind serves as the cello professor at the University of Denver’s Lamont School of Music. He plays on a rare Italian cello made by Florentine Maker Luigi Piatellini in 1760.

Fraser River Dialogues – Keeping the Legend Alive
07:00pm -08:00pm
The FRDC is excited to present its next edition of Fraser River Dialogues – Keeping the Legend Alive! on Tuesday, October 18th at 7:00pm!
The white sturgeon is the largest and longest-lived species of freshwater fish in North America. The ancient fish is at the top of the Fraser River food web, and one of the few year-round resident species of fish in the lower Fraser River. However, the population of white sturgeon in the lower Fraser River (downstream of Hell’s Gate) is a fraction of its historic levels.
The Fraser River Sturgeon Conservation Society (FRSCS) is dedicated to the recovery and protection of this prehistoric species. Sarah Schreier, Executive Director of the FRSCS, joins us to talk about the society’s work, conservation efforts and impacts, and what we can do to help the “Great White Sturgeon”.

Ali Hassan: Does This Taste Funny?
07:30pm -10:00pm
Deconstructing a chef’s journey from food to comedy
Ali Hassan’s career plans started off as simply as anyone’s: become a chef, get a food show on television, get a second food show on television, be the face of the network and have oven mitts with his face on them. But sometimes things get in the way of your dreams: like your parents’ disappointment, your family of four children and your successful comedy career.
This show is a hilarious exposition of Ali’s journey in and out of the culinary world in which he spent 12 years. It’s a little like Eat, Pray, Love….minus the Prayer.

All day
Ghost of a Chance
By Flip Kobler & Cindy Marcus
Presented by Royal Canadian Theatre Company at the Anvil Theatre
Bethany is bright, strong, independent, beautiful and has zero self esteem. She has brought her fiancée, Floyd, and his mother, Verna, up to her cabin in the woods, the site of the hunting accident that killed Chance… her first husband. Much to her consternation, he or rather, his ghost is still there. Bethany even brings in a delightfully kooky psychic to help deal with the ghost of Chance and hopefully move forward without her late husband haunting her.
