Canada Reads: Jian Ghomeshi

Canada Reads Dept: For 2013, Canada Reads returns to fiction, after dabbling with non-fiction last year. The debate began months ago, as readers in five different regions of the country put forward their favourite novels set in their own province. Jian Ghomeshi hosts Canada Reads, according to CBC. By Thursday, a group of five panellists will have chosen a single book as three million listeners or web viewers follow the debate. s Canada-wide book debate Canada Reads begins Monday with novels from five regions of Canada vying for the hearts and minds of readers. The result is a list of five books that feature scenes from a residential school in Northern Ontario, a small town in Manitoba, an oil rig off the coast of Newfoundland and 1940s Montreal.
