For those who missed TVO’s The Agenda this past Friday evening, you can watch the fascinating discussion about the place of history in Canada today and the best ways of engaging with Canada’s past history, you can watch a video of our History colleague Craig Heron and the others discussing these questions on the TVO website at:

It’s also accessible via http://theagenda.tvo.org/episode/141035/canada%27s-stories.
Even though the session was “frustratingly brief”, as he put it, Craig is an eloquent spokesperson for the breadth of today’s history-writing about the Canadian past and the importance of keeping a broad mind about the variety of ways in which history can be written.
