Follow the Canada Reads contest, a four-day event in which five well-known Canadians champion a book of their choice. Canada Reads takes place from March 17-20, 2025 with a winner chosen on March 20. This is great opportunity to learn more about Canadian literature. 

From CBC News:

Five books, five champions, one winner: CBC's annual Battle of the Books has been getting people listening, watching and, of course, reading, for the past 18 years.

Canada Reads is a "literary Survivor," with celebrities championing books. Each day, panellists vote to eliminate one book, until a single title is chosen as the title the whole country should read this year.
