SUMMARY:UEL Association of Canada Toronto Branch February 2023 Meeting (Virtual): "British Child Migration" by Pat Skidmore
DESCRIPTION:On February 23\, 2023 at 7:30 pm via zoom\, Pat Skidmore is going to give us an overview of the 350 year history of British Child Migration – a history that has been kept silent for a good portion of the 350 years.  British Child Migration took place as far back as the 1830s to the late 1940s\, although the ‘height’ of child migration to Canada was between 1869 and the 1930s. \nHer research is mainly centered on the Prince of Wales Fairbridge Farm School and her mother\, Marjorie’s\, experience there.  Over 120\,000 children were sent to Canada . Over 95% of the children were not orphaned. \nTo register\, send an email to torontouel@gmail.com – a meeting link will be sent out by February 20th.

SUMMARY:Thunder Bay Museum Free Public Lecture (In Person and Virtual): Lakehead University Graduate Students - Christine Green and Haileigh Riddell
DESCRIPTION:Please join the Thunder Bay Historical Museum Society for a lecture from Lakehead University Graduate Students Christine Green and Haileigh Riddell. This will be a in-person event that is free to view. The lecture will be broadcast live via ZOOM for those who cannot attend in-person and recorded and posted to the Museum’s YouTube at a later date. \nCLICK HERE TO VIEW THE WEBINAR\n  \nChristine Green\, Constructing a Collective Past: Locating Indigenous Histories in Local Narratives \nTruth and Reconciliation Commission Call to Action #67 calls for the federal government to undertake a national review of museum policies and best practices to determine compliance with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples (UNDRIP) and make recommendations. Of specific importance is UNDRIP Article 15.1\, outlining Indigenous peoples’ right to have their cultures\, traditions\, and histories appropriately represented in education and public information. \nOne of the main ways the public interacts with Canadian history is through museums and public history initiatives. So\, the question becomes what representations of Indigenous histories are being presented in museums? This presentation will examine exhibition and programming practices in museums located in Northwestern Ontario in order to analyze the collective imagining of community histories in relation to Indigenous peoples. By examining exhibits\, programming\,  and outreach materials at various museums across Northwestern Ontario a pattern of representation emerges where Indigenous histories are relegated to the fur trade era and earlier. This presentation will examine why this pattern exists\, what museums are doing to correct it\, and what museums need in order to support the major changes required. \nHaileigh Riddell\, Eugenics: A comparison of Ontario and Alberta while examining the connection to Northwestern Ontario \nHer presentation compares the Eugenics Society of Canada\, based in Ontario\, and the Alberta Eugenics Board\, while examining the connection to Northwestern Ontario. In comparing the two provincial eugenic organizations\, the talk explores the similarities and differences in key policies\, legislation\, and public sentiment\, while discussing the lasting impact of eugenic practices in Canada. \nFree Museum Admission during the event. Refreshments will be available.
