Politics & the Pen has invited over 1,500 writers to the annual gala in #Ottawa over the years. At least that is our count from 1988. They bring the pen to #PoliPen and we thank them for it.

If you’re feeling a little less than optimistic after our last #polipen poll, try your hand at this next question! On the flip side, if you’re confident in your #cdnpoli knowledge, keep going! What is the title of Tanya Talaga’s prize-winning book?
