With three weeks to go until Canada Reads, the actor tells us how she's preparing for the debate
There's only three weeks to go until Canada Reads is upon us once again!
The annual Canadian book debate features five books. Each book has a champion whose job is to convince the other champions to vote for their book as the one Canadians must read this year.
For an idea of what's to come from this year's battle of the books, we'll be featuring a new champion each week leading up to the competition. Today, actor and filmmaker Keegan Connor Tracy joined host Elamin Abdelmahmoud to talk about her pick for the competition, Greenwood by Michael Christie.
With the longest book in the competition this year, Tracy shares why she was drawn to the novel, plus how she's preparing for the competition — including how many times she's read each of her competitors' novels.
You can listen to the full discussion from today's show on CBC Listen or on our podcast, Commotion with Elamin Abdelmahmoud, available wherever you get your podcasts.
