What Is Stephen Harper Reading?
Author Yann Martel (Life of Pi) has started (on Apr. 16, 2007) sending Canada’s prime minister Stephen Harper a book every two weeks to encourage him to think about the arts. Since Stephen Harper’s government has reduced arts funding to anemic proportions, Mr. Martel hopes to "make suggestions to his stillness" and possibly show Mr. Harper that the arts are not mere entertainment but a vital part of a country’s culture and the very lives of its people.
Any response from the prime minister will be posted here: http://www.whatisstephenharperreading.ca/
