SUMMARY:Toronto Railway Museum Online Lecture: Halifax Explosion and the Role of Railways
DESCRIPTION:On December 6th\, 1917 the SS Mont-Blanc collided with the SS Imo in the harbour of Halifax\, Nova Scotia. What resulted was a devastating explosion that caused many deaths\, many more casualties\, and the destruction of Halifax itself. \nThis explosion is still regarded as one of the largest human-engineered explosions on record and is an unforgettable part of 20th century Canadian history. Responding to the disaster was a collective effort that included the railways in northeastern Canada and the US. Join us and Roger Sarty on December 14 for the final online lecture in our 2023 series. Free! Registration required.

SUMMARY:Toronto Railway Museum Online Lecture: An Evening with Stephen R. Bown
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Thursday\, January 18 for an evening with award-winning author Stephen R. Bown as he discusses his latest book Dominion: The Railway and the Rise of Canada\, which tells the gripping and eye-opening account of the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway and how it enabled the nation of Canada. \nWith over 3\,000 kilometers of track\, much of it driven through wildly inhospitable terrain\, the CPR would be the longest railway in the world and the most difficult to build. Its construction was the defining event of its era and a catalyst for powerful global forces. \nIn recent years Canadian history has been given a rude awakening from the comforts of its myths. In Dominion\, Stephen Bown again widens our view of the past to include the adventures and hardships of explorers and surveyors\, the resistance of Indigenous peoples\, and the terrific and horrific work of many thousands of labourers. His vivid portrayal of the powerful forces that were molding the world in the late 19th century provides a revelatory new picture of modern Canada’s creation as an independent state.

SUMMARY:The Historical Society of Ottawa Speaker Series: OTTAWA'S SHORELINE... BUILT FROM GARBAGE?
DESCRIPTION:Running out of landfill space? Why not dump it in the river! The 1950s and 1960s was an era of all-important progress and little concern for “environmental assessments”. Learn about the decision-making process that led to much of the Ottawa River shoreline from Mechanicsville through LeBreton Flats being built from our garbage. \nLearn about this story and more as Dave Allston takes a look back at some of the major alterations to Ottawa’s landscape in the years following Jacques Greber’s sweeping recommendations.
