Folks, it's a groundbreaking event. Coming off a SOLD OUT west coast tour, the admin is coming to Truro, Nova Scotia for the very first time. In what many are calling "the show of a lifetime" @canada.gov.ca is proud to be coming to the STUNNING Marigold Theatre on Thursday, April 10th at 7:30 pm, with doors opening at 7. Come for the Canadian themes, stay for the Truro stories.

Since 2017, John Batt has been the brain behind the popular instagram account @canada.gov.ca, curating wonderfully-woven anecdotes from the more obscure side of Canadian history and culture. He has brought his one-man show to audiences in Alberta, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland, Ontario and Quebec. John has been profiled by CTV, The Globe and Mail and CBC even recently as a guest of The Current with Matt Galloway. 

Amongst his 94,000 followers are Canadian heavyweights like Anne Murray and Blue Rodeo's Greg Keelor. While born and raised in Fredericton, now living in the Laurentians, he describes his show as a cross between a Ted Talk and having a couple drinks with a friend. It's easier to think about what it's not: it's not a podcast, it's not stand-up comedy: it's @canada.gov.ca LIVE. Expect the unexpected and see what all the fuss is about yourself! See you there :)
