This Month at Canada's History


Canada's History
for Spring 2026 is now going out to subscribers.  The cover is a terrific image by Alberta artist Fred Curatolo illustrating the cover story, "Canada's Comedy Greats" by John Semley -- pretty good too.

Among the stories this month: Ann Hall on the Edmonton Grads, Lisa van der Geyn on psychiatric-care pioneer Clarence Hincks, Gabriel Milhet on Nova Scotia black rights campaigners, John Lorinc with a big article on a series of mid-century floods that transformed Canadian disaster response, and several more.

Also a big review section and much else. It's looking good. You really ought to subscribe. (And I'm deep into the Hudson's Bay Charter for an upcoming story, so waste no time.)
