SUMMARY:Glencoe & District Historical Society Presentation - Faith\, Family and Migration: The Old Colony Mennonite Experience
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a captivating presentation exploring the rich and complex history of the Mennonite people—from their radical beginnings during the 16th-century Anabaptist movement in Europe to their migrations across continents\, including the journeys to Canada and Mexico. \nThis talk will guide attendees through centuries of faith\, migration\, and cultural identity\, offering insights into how various Mennonite and Amish groups emerged\, each with distinct beliefs\, customs\, and approaches to community life. Whether you’re curious about the theological roots of Anabaptism\, the historical pressures that led to Mennonite migrations\, or the differences between Old Colony\, Conservative\, and Progressive Mennonite communities (and how the Amish fit into this tapestry)\, there will be something here for everyone. \nThe presentation is grounded in historical research and delivered with respect for the simple and deeply intentional lives these communities choose to live. It’s both informative and personal\, especially as it touches on themes from the recently published book\, Not My Kind of Mennonite—a reflective and honest account of life in the Old Colony Mennonite tradition. \nMaria Moore is a Canadian writer\, advocate\, and former registered nurse whose work explores themes of resilience\, identity\, generational trauma\, and the search for personal empowerment. Raised in an Old Colony Mennonite community in Mexico\, she later immigrated to Canada and spent over forty years working in healthcare\, including mental health support. Her debut memoir\, Not My Kind of Mennonite (FriesenPress\, 2023)\, traces her family’s journey across borders and generations\, shedding light on the silent struggles faced by many women and men in closed communities. Now living in southwestern Ontario with her husband and their dog\, Maria continues to give back through volunteer work\, board service\, and public speaking that champions the voices of those too often overlooked.

SUMMARY:Oakville Historical Society Speaker Night: First In\, Last Out. Women's Division\, Royal Canadian Air Force\, World War II
DESCRIPTION:The Oakville Historical Society is pleased to announce the speaker for our next “Speaker Night”\, Ms. Glad Bryce\, on Wednesday\, November 19111\, 2025. This will be held via ZOOM at 7:30 pm – so no travelling on a cold evening required! \nMs. Bryce is extremely accomplished\, authoring many books\, teaching at the high school\, college and university levels\, as well as being an accomplished athlete. She won 3 gold medals at the 2009 FINA World Swim Championships in Sweden. She is additionally a renowned water-colourist with her paintings appearing in many homes and galleries. \nThis presentation will provide a historical view of the Royal Canadian Air Force\, Women’s Division\, as well as Nursing sisters\, during World War II. Ms. Bryce’s book\, entitled “First in Last Out”\, includes extensive photographs and documents detailing the history of the Women’s Division from its formation to its disbanding in 1946\, as well as stories that show the contributions and bravery of the women who served. \nOur presenter and author of this publication will share the stories of these women\, showing they can be a source of inspiration for all people\, as we learn of their challenging paths during the war. It is notable that when Queen Elizabeth was given a copy of Glad’s book “First !n Last Out” during a visit to Canada in 2010\, she immediately began reading and was so engrossed\, she almost missed her next appointment – and the book was placed in the Queen’s personal library\, later sending Glad a personal letter complimenting her work. \nOne could write pages on this amazing presenter\, and we hope you take the opportunity to meet her\, via Zoom\, on November 19th at 7:30 pm- via Zoom! \nPLEASE NOTE: THE LINK TO CONNECT TO THE ZOOM PRESENTATION WILL BE SHARED IN THE FUTURE!

SUMMARY:La Société d'histoire de Toronto - Une histoire mondiale de la vanille
DESCRIPTION:Conférencier : Éric Jennings\, Professeur d’histoire\, Université de Toronto\n\n  \nC’est grâce à un jeune esclave féru de botanique que la vanille\, orchidée originaire d’Amérique centrale\, devint au XIXème siècle une des denrées par excellence de l’empire colonial français. Tout bascule de nouveau lorsqu’est découverte et popularisée la vanilline de synthèse.  Contrairement à d’autres denrées (coton\, caoutchouc\, café\, indigo\, cacao) la vanille a fait jusqu’ici l’objet de relativement peu de recherches à ce jour.  A la frontière entre l’histoire du goût\, des savoirs botaniques et de l’économie des marchés alimentaires\, cette présentation met en évidence un vaste transfert\, depuis le monde Atlantique (Mexique) à l’océan Indien\, et de la sphère hispanique à l’orbite coloniale française de l’époque.
