Conflicts and agreements: Canada’s foundations and their consequences

P. Whitney Lackenbauer will moderate a discussion between fellow historians Patrice Dutil, Daniel Heidt, Marcel Martel, Robert Wardhaugh and political scientist Jacqueline Krikorian, around the major political agreements, battles and conflicting visions that surrounded each province’s entry into Confederation between 1865 and 1949.

Along the way, they will discuss the success and failure of these many visions, describe how they shaped present-day politics, and evaluate whether - and how - we should celebrate Canada’s 150th anniversary.

Alternative Photography 101 - workshop at Stratford Campus

Did you know you can create a photographic print using just the sun? It's true! Attend this fun and informative workshop to learn how to create a photograph using the historical photographic methods of pinhole and cyantopye. We will be putting a contemporary spin on the process by using digital pinhole cameras to create the images, and printing the negatives on an inkjet printer. 

Released just over 1 year ago, the 7-volume report as well as the Calls to Action of Canada’s Truth and Reconciliation Commission in many ways focused on language.
