Books

Hi! I'm Margaret Evans and I have been a writer/ journalist and author for over 50 years. I have written five non-fiction books and have several other book projects in the works.  

Journalism

My experience as a journalist began in the early 1970s. Since then I've written hundreds of articles, opinion editorials and columns for newspapers and magazines on a wide variety of topics.
Talks
The publication of my book Heart of a Hoofbeat  led to a multimedia talk on horses. That led to the production of more talks on wildlife, marine life, domestic animals and the challenges of climate change. 

Courses

In 2013, I began offering writing courses. Many writers face both excitement and challenges when starting a project. I wanted to share all I have learned to help them successfully publish their work.   


I wish to share my deepest condolences and sorrow for the residents of Tumbler Ridge, B.C. following the devastating shooting that took the lives of nine people, including five children, and injured 27 others.  My family, our friends wrap you in love and hold you in our thoughts and prayers.


Prime Minister Mark Carney's speech at the World Economic Forum in January was both brilliant and telling. And he minced no words. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition, he said, expanding his belief that "great powers have begun using economic integration as weapons, tariffs as leverage, financial infrastructure as coercion, supply chains as vulnerabilities to be exploited."

So, he said, Canada as a middle power is engaging broadly, strategically, with open eyes, taking on the world as it is, not waiting for a world we wish to be. In that context, we are building strength at home while seeking new partnerships around the world. The old order, he warned, is not coming back. And that's OK. Powerful countries may have their leverage but it will be the middle powers - 50 plus countries - that will, through cooperation and trade, benefit and thrive, moving forward in new directions.
