Sarah McLachlan is searching for her purpose in this fractured world.
The Halifax-born singer-songwriter once shattered boundaries with her Lilith Fair tour by empowering a generation of female voices.
But lately, as she prepares her first album of original material in a decade, she is questioning how to voice her opinions on social and political issues.
“I’ve always considered myself to not be political, but I’m not sure any of us have the luxury anymore,” she said in a phone interview from her Vancouver home.
