SUMMARY:Toronto Railway Museum - Speaker Series Returns with "How Rail Industry Knowledge Informs Heritage Preservation"
DESCRIPTION:Historic locomotives and railcars can be mysterious and challenging objects\, but there are similarities between the 19th and 21st century rail industry that provide historians context for preservation. Join Chris Fox for a lively discussion of his experience in maintaining heritage rolling stock using his industry knowledge that he’s compiled throughout his rail career. \nAbout our Speaker \nChristopher Fox is an experienced and widely respected professional in the rail industry with a career spanning 30 years. He worked as a railway mechanic for Bombardier and GO Transit for over 10 years\, before moving on to the operating trades at GO Transit for the past 15 years. \nHe also works with the VIA Historical Association and the Halton County Radial Railway\, where he has helped to maintain and restore various heritage cars and locomotives including the VIA 6917 (owned by the TRHA). \nHe enjoys anything mechanical. When he’s notworking on trains or engines\, he enjoys fishing\, snowmobiling\, and spending time with his children. \nAbout the series \nThe Toronto Railway Museum hosts guest speakers online via the Zoom Webinar platform the second Tuesday of each month. These talks are free and open to the public\, with a suggested donation of $10 to support future programming. The Toronto Railway is a registered Canadian charity (838626943RR0001) and charitable tax receipts are issued for donations over $25. \nRegister for Rail Industry Knowledge & Heritage Preservation

SUMMARY:Toronto Branch OGS - The Toronto History Lecture "Toronto’s Streetcars – How the Past Shapes the Present"
DESCRIPTION:The Toronto History Lecture was inaugurated in 2011 in memory of well-known local and family historian Paul McGrath and his love for telling people about Toronto and its past. Toronto Branch assumed responsibility for the lecture series in 2012\, ensuring that it will continue as an annual event for years to come. It is free to attend and open to the public. \nSpeakers: Brian and Michael Doucet\nOnline via Zoom. August 5 at 7:00 pm \nToronto’s streetcars are an icon of the city and one of Canada’s busiest transit networks. Since the 1960s\, the city has been home to North America’s largest streetcar system. Both today’s streetcar network and the wider city in which they run are heavily influenced by 150 years of transit and transportation history. The creation of the Toronto Transit Commission in 1921 was one of the first examples of a municipally owned transit system and the investments the TTC made throughout the 1920s created a state-of-the-art network that extended service into new suburbs. \nPresenters Brian and Michael Doucet will weave the story of the streetcars with one of an ascendant city which transformed over the past 75 years from a modest\, predominantly British and provincial city\, to Canada’s leading metropolis and one of the world’s most multicultural cities. The streetcars have shaped many neighbourhoods and have ensured that they have remained connected and liveable places. Today\, as a new generation of light rail transit lines is being developed\, this connectivity also shapes a new geography of inequality\, with streetcar lines anchoring waves of new investment and gentrification. \nHead and shoulders photo of speakers Michael and Brian Doucet with iron gridwork of the Bathurst Street bridge in the backgroundDr. Brian Doucet and Dr. Michael Doucet are a father-son team of academics who have spent their careers researching cities and urban change. Michael is lifelong Torontonian and an Emeritus Professor of Geography who spent his career at Ryerson (now Toronto Metropolitan University). Son Brian is an Associate Professor of Planning at the University of Waterloo and one of Canada’s leading housing experts. \nThe Toronto History Lecture is free to attend.

SUMMARY:Toronto's First Post Office Speaker Series: Historical Curiosities with Dr. Jane McGaughey
DESCRIPTION:Join historian Dr. Jane McGaughey as she discusses the life and times of Colonel James FitzGibbon\, one of the best-known soldiers in 19th century Upper Canada\, and a familiar face to many in Toronto. Arriving in in the colony as a dashing young officer\, he further earned the public’s esteem for his roles in stemming sectarian violence\, helping others during the cholera epidemic of 1832\, and defending Toronto from rebels in 1837. In private\, he lived a life of adventure\, romance\, and tragedy more befitting a character from a Jane Austen or Bridgerton novel. Given all that\, Dr. Jane McGaughey will ask the pertinent question as to why James Fitzgibbon has become one of the more forgotten characters in Canada’s past. This event will be hosted online and pre-registration is 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: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.

SUMMARY:Conférence de la Société d’histoire de Toronto - Le destin d’Inuits du Labrador décédés en France aux XIXe et XXe siècles
DESCRIPTION:En 1880\, un Inuk du nord du Labrador\, Abraham\, accepte une offre de partir pour l’Europe pour une année\, avec femme et enfants\, afin d’y être exhibés dans des zoos.

SUMMARY:Historical Society of Ottawa (Virtual): Chief Pinesi and his Pursuit of Justice
DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker: Jim Stone\, Author\, “Grand Chief Constant Pinesi: Fighting a Losing Battle” \nGrand Chief Pierre-Louis Constant Pinesi (1768-1834) witnessed great and tragic changes during his lifetime.

SUMMARY:CBH TALKS (virtual): Booze\, Cigarettes and Constitutional Dust-Ups: Canada's Quest for Interprovincial Free Trade
DESCRIPTION:The Canadian Business History Association would like to invite you for a special virtual event on September 27 from 2-3PM (EST). Our guest speaker is Ryan Manucha\, the author of Booze\, Cigarettes\, and Constitutional Dust-Ups: Canada’s Quest for Interprovincial Free Trade. The Talk will be hosted by our President\, Joe Martin. \n To sign up please click here or email jeremy.mosher@nbc.ca \nCanada’s interprovincial trade barriers tell an engrossing story of our country’s struggle to pursue an enduring singleness\, despite a staggering diversity in climate\, topography\, demography and economics. The tale of our economic union is woven into the nation’s industrial outputs – from turkeys and potash to margarine and duvets\, and of course\, booze. This talk traces the story of interprovincial trade to the present day\, unearthing the intergenerational battles that pit national and local ambitions against one another\, as well as the sacrifices and trade-offs that Canadians would have to make in order to liberalize internal trade. \nThe COVID pandemic reminded Canadians about the importance of internal trade. Fickle foreign trading partners\, border restrictions\, and ascendant nationalism across the globe invite Canadians to increasingly look to one another for enduring economic prosperity. This talk looks ahead at what is to come for Canadian interprovincial trade and offers recommendations from a broad study of the topic. \n———— \nRyan Manucha is a leading scholar on interprovincial trade in Canada. He presently serves as an external advisor to the federal government. His work has appeared in several of Canada’s leading legal journals (Osgoode Hall Law Review\, the Canadian Business Law Journal\, Canadian Journal of Administrative Law\, and Practice) and significant newspapers (The Globe and Mail\, The Ottawa Sun and Maclean’s). He has appeared on TVO’s The Agenda with Steve Paikin and CBC Radio\, among other outlets. He has also authored reports published by Canada’s leading think tanks (C.D. Howe Institute and the Macdonald Laurier Institute). In 2022 he was commissioned to conduct a policy review for the government of Alberta. Most recently\, his interdisciplinary book on the topic was published by McGill-Queen’s University Press; the book won the 2022 Donner Prize for best in Canadian public policy and writing. He obtained his JD from Harvard Law School\, where he was awarded the Frederick Sheldon Fellowship to pursue research on interprovincial trade. He obtained his BA in Economics\, magna cum laude\, from Yale University.

SUMMARY:UEL Kawartha Branch September 2023 Meeting (Virtual): The Elizabeth Beard Story
DESCRIPTION:“Valiant Amazing: The Elizabeth Beard Story” by Andrew MacLean \nElizabeth Beard was a young Loyalist woman from Philadelphia who ultimately fought alongside her soldier husband during the Revolution. She was with him on a ship which was attacked\, and she manned the cannon\, tearing off parts of her dress to use as wadding. \nAfter that she went on land and was part of a partisan attack on a small group of Rebels. Later\, she popped up again\, in what is now Florida\, in a besieged fort\, again manning a cannon. After that she became a prisoner\, and was ultimately part of a swap at the end of the war. \nShe then sailed aboard the Martha from New York City to Nova Scotia.  The Martha became separated from the refugee fleet in heavy fog and crashed on a rock. She\, while heavily pregnant with triplets(!)\, was aboard a raft with sixty-some survivors and was rescued by fishermen\, giving birth on the beach. \nHer sons later fought in the War of 1812. \nIn person\, at Activity Haven\, Peterborough\, ON – email Bob McBride for details uelbob@nexicom.net. \nVia zoom\, Join Zoom Meeting   Meeting ID: 852 5540 8930\, Passcode: 721187
