Series A  - Canada at 150

In 2017 Canada marks the 150th anniversary of Confederation. Anniversaries mean different things to different people. For some they are fairly unimportant since they merely represent the passage of time. For others they are occasions for displays of pomp and patriotism. For yet others they provide an opportunity to reflect on the past, the present, and the future. This series of lectures will be devoted to such reflection.
