Thomas Littlewood successfully defended his dissertation entitled, "Public Commemorations and Personal Memories: Canadian Commemoration of the Second World War," at the University of Guelph on Wednesday, June 26, 2024.
In late June, Dr. Terry Copp, C. M., professor emeritus in history from Wilfrid Laurier University was appointed Member of the Order of Canada by Her Excellency the Right Honourable Mary Simon, Governor General. He co-founded and is director emeritus of the Laurier Centre for Military and Strategic Disarmament Studies, (now Laurier Centre for the Study of Canada) where he fostered a rich community of scholarship and cemented Canada’s role in the Second World War. His ongoing work is a legacy to future generations and their knowledge of our past. An investiture ceremony will take place at a later date.
