The cohort of Canadian youth aged 15 to 24 stands at a defining crossroads. As the world hurtles forward into an era of rapid transformation, this generation carries the weight of navigating an uncertain future shaped by challenges on an unprecedented scale. Between the Now and the Next is a social photography project that aims to amplify the voices of these young individuals, offering a lens into their hopes, fears, and aspirations for Canada in the year 2030.

As Canada looks toward 2030, this project invites viewers to pause and consider: What kind of nation are we becoming? And how can we support a generation poised to lead us there? Through the eyes of its youth, this project holds a mirror to the country’s present and a window into its potential future.
