Honours Watch: Order of Canada

Not much attention to historians at the Order of Canada yesterday, but congratulations to Mark Zuehlke -- the appointment citation makes him officially "Canada's leading writer of popular military history." Sylvia Bashevkin, honoured for her contributions to gender and politics studies, is a political scientist, not a historian, but close enough....   

A pretty thin list of writers, too, but honours to Maureen Jennings, author of the Murdoch Mysteries and a host of other mystery series.
