Since the beginning of the pandemic, the monthly meetings of World Feds Coffee and Discussion have been held via ZOOM. The group has been fortunate to have had the skills of Elizabeth Saccà, François Labonté, and Christine Jacobs as hosts for these meetings; the meetings are scheduled for the first Wednesday of each month at 10 am. At the meeting of 6th April, the participants discussed how the events in Ukraine had altered their "worldviews".

Among the many topics we discussed in the last year, here are a few to give you an idea of how wide-ranging the discussions were:

• Canadian policy in the Arctic
• Cybercurrency • Decolonization
• Afghanistan and the Taliban
• Global Islamic extremism
• China and Canadian policy

Last summer we met at the covered picnic tables in Parc Daisy-Peterson-Sweeney
