SUMMARY:Toronto Railway Museum (Virtual): A Tale of Two Tunnels Beneath the St. Clair River
DESCRIPTION:Join us for “A Tale of Two Tunnels Beneath the St. Clair River”\, an online lecture on June 15! \nJoin Christina Sydorko\, Educational Programs Coordinator at the Oil Museum of Canada\, on a journey to discover the engineering marvel that is the St. Clair tunnel. \nPicture this: Rail traffic is backed up and at a stand still on a frozen stormy night in the middle of winter. It is too dangerous for the Grand Trunk Railway ferries to make the river crossing in the storm and tomorrow will be lost due to ice jams. The St. Clair River crossing has become a bottleneck and delays are costing money. How can this problem be solved? The solution is digging a tunnel in the soft clay beneath one of the fastest rivers to join Canada and the United States by a ribbon of steel! \nConstruction of the St. Clair tunnel was an engineering marvel of its time\, only to be repeated again 100 years later! The second version saw crews employing the latest laser-guided technologically-advanced tunneling machine dubbed “Excalibore” built in Toronto\, Ontario. \nTICKETS \nTickets for this event are free\, although registration is required. \nAttendees will get access to our exclusive Zoom meeting room\, where they can engage directly with the presenter and museum historians in a post-lecture Q&A. The event will begin at June 15th\, 7:00 P.M. Eastern Standard Time\, and will end at June 15th\, 8:00 P.M. EST.

SUMMARY:Culinary Historians of Canada (Virtual): From Figgy Duff to Loblolly: History on the Newfoundland & Labrador Table
DESCRIPTION:Whet your appetite & your curiosity: Explore the history of foods that have travelled the world to arrive on Newfoundland & Labrador tables. \nJennifer Leigh Hill’s The Foods of Newfoundland and Labrador: Tracing the History of the Province’s Cookery is not a traditional “cookbook”(even though it includes 170 recipes)\, but rather a look at the history of how some of the various dishes that are typically served in both homes and restaurants around the province have evolved and continue to evolve. \nThis book has arisen from the author’s love of the people of Newfoundland and Labrador\, their culture and their food\, and she has tried to be as accurate as possible in presenting the fascinating history of “traditional” Newfoundland cookery from the 1600s to the present. \nThe book examines food that can be traced back to the early settlers: the English\, Irish\, Scottish\, French\, Spanish\, Portuguese and Basque\, and recipes that are representative of each group are presented. Examples include Figgy Duff (England)\, Boxty (Ireland)\, Scotch Eggs (Scotland)\, Croquettes (France)\, Sardinhas Asadas (Spain)\, Char-Grilled Octopus (Basque)\, and Egg Tarts (Portugal).

SUMMARY:National Trust for Canada (Virtual): Webinar: CARE Tool: Quantifying the Carbon Savings from Reuse
DESCRIPTION:FREE \nPresented by the Canadian Association of Heritage Professionals (CAHP) and National Trust for Canada \nAre you looking for help to make the climate case for saving and reusing an older building? Join this webinar to learn about the newly released Carbon Avoided Reuse Estimator (“CARE Tool”). \nLaunched early this year by Architecture 2030\, the CARE Tool estimates the operational and embodied carbon emissions associated with reusing and upgrading an existing building or replacing it with new construction. This innovative carbon estimator can be used by policymakers\, planners\, building owners\, developers\, heritage building officers\, architects\, educators\, and others who are interested in a pre- or early-design\, high-level assessment of the total carbon emissions of building reuse versus replacement. \nThe developers of the tool will demonstrate the tools capabilities and give us case examples from early adopters. There will also be discussion about the work needed to update the CARE tool for the Canadian context. \nPresenters:\n— Erin McDade\, Associate AIA\, Senior Program Director at Architecture 2030\n— Lori Ferriss\, AIA\, PE\, Regenerative Renewal Practice Leader and Director of Sustainability and Climate Action at Goody Clancy \nDiscussants:\n— Emad Ghattas\, Senior Associate\, Architect\, GBCA Architects\n— Austin Parsons\, Owner/Operator\, Parsons Lumber Company Limited\, & Parsons Heritage Works (Parsons) \nModerator:\n— Chris Wiebe\, Manager\, Heritage Policy & Government Relations\, National Trust for Canada

SUMMARY:West Toronto Junction Historical Society (Virtual): Tackling the Junction’s Assessment Records  – Part 2 of Researching the History of Your House
DESCRIPTION:Join us on May 4\, 2023 at 7 pm for a presentation on Zoom by Jane MacNamara on using online assessment records to fill in details on the history of your house and its residents. \nAdvance registration is required. To register for the May 4 2023 presentation and meeting visit: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZUucumtrzkvHdZ1IJXdgM2WxOi7DRsxwPpP. \nIf you haven’t used Toronto assessment records in your research\, you’re missing a great source to fill in the 10-year gaps between census. And now that FamilySearch.org has digitized the 19th-century assessment rolls for today’s Toronto—we can use them from home to find out more about our occupier or landholder ancestors and their communities. This session will help you figure out the wards and other divisions needed to locate a household\, and to understand what you’ve found. We’ll go beyond the flawed indexing with maps\, directories and other tools. Family Search holdings include West Toronto Junction assessment rolls from 1888 to 1899\, as well as pre-incorporation York Township from 1882. (Later years are at the City of Toronto Archives.) \nJane E. MacNamara is the author of Inheritance in Ontario: Wills and other Records for Family Historians (OGS/Dundurn) and writes about genealogy at wherethestorytakesme.ca. A longtime member of the Ontario Genealogical Society\, Jane lectures about research methodology\, Ontario\, and English family history to genealogical and historical groups throughout southern Ontario. She teaches courses for the OGS Toronto Branch\, most notably hands-on courses about Ontario records.

SUMMARY:Historical Society of Ottawa (Virtual): The Role of Art and Artists in Ottawa's History
DESCRIPTION:When the Arts Canada Institute wanted to commission a series of new books about the history of art and artists across Canada\, it began by approaching Jim Burant to write a book about the art and artists of Ottawa. \nThe comprehensive book that resulted from Jim’s work is a spectacular illustrated tour of Ottawa’s surprising artistic past. \nIt also proves a striking reminder of how invaluable the earliest sketches and paintings of Bytown are to our understanding of our past… and of how the photographs of Topley and Karsh and others have provided us with further lasting images of those bygone eras. \nThanks to the brushes and camera lenses of these long ago artists\, we are able to witness the Chaudiere Falls before tamed… the Rideau Canal first being surveyed by Colonel By… Vice-Regal couples hosting early skating parties… the great fires that swept through Ottawa-Hull… Winston Churchill visiting during wartime. \nHistory from even further back is preserved in ancient Indigenous pictographs. \nAnd what of 20th century artists like Mine & MacLeod and contemporary artists like Annie Pootoogook? \nJoin us on Wednesday\, April 26 @ 7 p.m. on Zoom with archivist and author Jim Burant as guest speaker for our HSO Speaker Series presentation\, “The Role of Art & Artists in Ottawa’s History”.

SUMMARY:Culinary Historians of Canada (Virtual): Mrs. Raffald: British Cooking & Housekeeping in the 1700s with Neil Buttery
DESCRIPTION:Food historian Neil Buttery delves into the life & food of Elizabeth Raffald: cookbook author\, tavern keeper\, mother\, midwife & exorcist! \nThe great Elizabeth Raffald used to be a household name\, and her list of accomplishments would make even the highest of achievers feel suddenly impotent. After becoming housekeeper at Arley Hall in Cheshire at age 25\, she married and moved to Manchester\, transforming the Manchester food scene and business community\, writing the first A to Z directory and creating the first domestic servants’ registry office—the first temping agency if you will. Not only that\, she set up a cookery school and ran a high-class tavern attracting both gentry and nobility. She reputedly gave birth to 16 daughters\, wrote a book on midwifery and was an effective exorcist of evil spirits. \nBut all this pales in comparison to her biggest achievement: her cookery book The Experienced English Housekeeper. Published in 1769\, it ran to over 20 editions and brought her fame and fortune… until her alcoholic husband bankrupted the family\, twice. \nHer book\, however\, lived on. Influential and often imitated (but never bettered)\, it became the must-have volume for any kitchen\, and it helped form our notion of traditional British food as we think of it today. \nTo tell the story of Elizabeth’s tumultuous rise and fall—and how her influential book helped form our notion of traditional British food —historian Neil Buttery doesn’t just delve into the history of food in the 18th century; he has to look at trade and empire\, domestic service\, the agricultural revolution\, women’s rights\, and much\, much more. \nA question & answer period will follow the talk.

SUMMARY:Toronto Railway Museum (Virtual): Streetcars and the Shifting Geographies of Toronto
DESCRIPTION:Join us for “Streetcars and the Shifting Geographies of Toronto”\, an online lecture on April 20! \nWhat can photos taken by streetcar enthusiasts reveal about the changing nature of cities? This is the question explored by Brian and Michael Doucet in their book Streetcars and the Shifting Geographies of Toronto: a visual analysis of change. The Doucets carefully and meticulously rephotograph these images taken in the 1960s and 70s to bring them into dialogue with contemporary planning\, policy\, political and public debates. \nStreetcar enthusiasts did not intend to document the major forces of change shaping cities\, but their images show far more than just the vehicles. In pursuit of their hobby\, these enthusiasts photographed cities in ways that very few other people did\, and took pictures in parts of the city that would have otherwise gone unphotographed. \nWhen paired with photos taken at the same locations today\, these images show the subtle and not-so-subtle economic\, social\, demographic and spatial changes that have taken place as Toronto has transitioned from an industrial and provincial city\, to one of the world’s major global metropolises. They show how these forces of change are reflected in the buildings\, streets and land uses across the city. \nThere are many books\, studies and reports that try to understand long-term changes in cities such as Toronto. Streetcars is one of the few that uses visual images as the primary way to analyse change. The Doucets aim to challenge everyone – scholars\, students\, planners\, politicians and the wider public – to look at their cities in new and different ways. \nJoin us for this engaging and insightful discussion about how photography can be used to better understand cities and urban change.

SUMMARY:West Toronto Junction Historical Society (Virtual): Adam Bunch\, "The Toronto Circus Riot: A True Tale of Sex\, Violence\, Corruption and Clowns"

The circus performers found themselves facing off against Toronto’s powerful Orange Order in a bloody clash that revealed the fault lines that once violently divided our city. \nAdam Bunch is an award-winning storyteller who brings the history of Toronto and Canada to life. He’s the author of The Toronto Book of the Dead and The Toronto Book of Love\, the host of the Canadiana documentary series\, and the creator of the Toronto Dreams Project. \nADVANCED REGISTRATION REQUIRED! REGISTER AT:\nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMpfu6przotG9ErjgvQ_AuRjDIA7mCRXLhq\nZoom then will send you Login details

SUMMARY:Swansea Historical Society (Virtual): Robert Home Smith\, Riverside Drive\, and the Humber Valley Developments
DESCRIPTION:We are pleased to announce that our speaker for March and April will be Richard Jordan. We thoroughly enjoyed Richard’s presentation to the Swansea Historical Society in November 2019 on the subject of Hurricane Hazel\, and we are delighted that he has consented to return (virtually) to join us in Swansea in the coming months. \nRichard Jordan is a former President of the Etobicoke Historical Society. \nA seasoned writer and an exciting and entertaining speaker\, for seven years Richard contributed a local history column to the Toronto Star. His feature articles on various topics have appeared in the Saturday Star\, the Sunday Star\, and international history and genealogy magazines. He has made hundreds of presentations on local history in various venues\, and now that he is retired\, his repertoire also includes his experiences travelling the world. \nThe topic of Richard’s March 1 presentation will be Robert Home Smith\, Riverside Drive\, and the Humber Valley Developments. Robert Home Smith was a fascinating and mutli-faceted Toronto character in the early 1900s\, a lawyer by training\, a civic leader\, an international investor\, and a property developer who was also a natural-born town planner with a vision and an eye for architecture. Among his many contributions to Toronto’s history were the development of a series of elegant west-end neighbourhoods including The Kingsway\, Baby Point\, Humber Valley Village\, and Swansea’s Riverside Drive area. \nIn April\, Richard will share his knowledge of the history of Etobicoke’s three lakeshore communities\, Mimico\, New Toronto\, and Long Branch. The three former municipalities share many things\, including the streetcars of Lake Shore Boulevard West and the beautiful shores of Lake Ontario\, but they have very different histories. Mimico is an older town\, once the home of palatial estates. New Toronto had its start as a gritty industrial suburb. And Long Branch began as a gated\, upper-class cottage community and resort in Victorian times. No doubt\, in each case you will see many parallels with the history of Swansea. Richard invites us to come take a pleasant journey with him along the lake and hear stories about the people and neighborhoods of Etobicoke’s Historic Lakeshore. \nHERE ARE THE LINKS FOR THE MARCH 1 VIRTUAL MEETING ON ZOOM.\nThe link will be open shortly after 7:30 pm and we are suggesting that people sign in before 8 pm so that we can get the meeting started promptly at 8. \nMarch 1\, 2023 – 8 p.m. start\, however accessible at 7:30: \nJoin Zoom Meeting\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/89694421653?pwd=bTJWUUsvY0NlMjZWL1FNd0ZIVmRuQT09 \nMeeting ID: 896 9442 1653\nPasscode: 363568
