Let’s do this together.....
Humanist Canada is partnering with the American Humanist Association to offer a course entitled ‘Humanism Is Not a Unicorn’.The course will be presented by David Breeden and will include an additional study session facilitated by our ED Bettianne Hedges.

This offering is open to Humanist Canada members only - so join us as part of a community committed to learning together.
The Board of Directors of Humanist Canada invite members to join them on Sunday, November 17th at 2pm for a Virtual Town Hall. Detail to follow.

Join us on Saturday, November 16, 2024, beginning at 8:30AM, for our Humanism in Action conference, a historical gathering of passionate secular activists from across southern Ontario. This event is an inspirational experience, where ideas, dreams, hopes, and practical strategies come together to bolster advocacy efforts. Unlike other secular conferences in Canada, this milestone event offers a distinctly Canadian perspective on Humanist values and their impact on shaping a better future for us all.

This month Steve Ghikadis launches a new series on our podcast entitled 'Humanist From the Heart' interviewing prominent voices within our secular humanist community.
His first guest is Dale McGowan. McGowan is an author, educator, podcaster, and philanthropist who has written and edited several books related to living a non-religious life, particularly about interfaith relationships and raising caring curious kids, without religion. He was awarded the title of “Harvard Humanist of the Year” for his work in the above fields, and was instrumental in the founding of Foundation Beyond Belief, a non-profit organization that supported the health and well-being of individuals and families all over the world. His list of accolades and workplaces are too vast to mention in this short intro, and today, he is the Editor-in-chief of OnlySky, a platform for forward-thinking secular insights that envision the world ahead.
