About

Join us for a lively and insightful panel discussion as a literary scout sits down with Canadian literary agents to explore the art and strategy of exporting Canadian literature. Together, they’ll unpack how Canadian voices travel abroad, the nuances of selling rights in a competitive global market, and what makes certain stories resonate internationally. Expect candid perspectives, practical tips, and a behind-the-scenes look at how agents champion Canadian talent on the world stage.
