I noted the cover of the June-July Canada's History last month. But now I have my subscription copy, hope you got yours, I have to mention that not only is there my big beautiful article on how striking tenants and railroad promoters and an endless succession of short-term premiers saw Prince Edward Island into Confederation a hundred and fifty years ago, just six years late. There is also a companion piece, a new entry to Canada's History's new podcast series on the Canada's History website. This one features Senior Editor Kate Jaimet and I talking with Mi'kmaw scholar and law professor Cheryl Simon about stolen lands, the treaty obligation, and confederation in Prince Edward Island and the Maritimes. Find it right here -- it runs about forty minutes.
