My favourite part of this: how the other panelists are actively engaged in listening, and agreeing with silent nods. I love how Gurdeep is able to address a societal ill (bigotry) without once indulging in negativity. Lovely message.

I am already such a huge fan of Gurdeep (like, who isn't??) -- but I just loved watching his humility, respect, and kindness shine through throughout the #CanadaReads debates. This is what this event is all about. Thank you
