37th J.W. Dafoe Political Studies Students’ Conference: The Legacy of 911 and the Defence of North America - Social Implications of 9/11

University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB

What immediate changes did the attacks on September 11, 2001 have upon Canada-US social relations?

In a post-9/11 world, do long-term impacts of this event remain evident in one of the world's most diversely populated bilateral partnerships?

These questions and many more will be examined in the third panel event of the 2021 J.W. Dafoe Political Studies Students’ Conference. Open and free to the public, this event brings together a diverse group of academics and practitioners to provide a wide range of perspectives and expertise in social topics pertaining to 9/11.

The program schedule and panelists are outlined below. Each panelist is given ten minutes to speak on the social implications of 9/11, and will be followed by a Q & A from the audience. Please note that the program is tentative and subject to change. Event organizers will notify of any changes made prior to the event date.
