While on the internet we came across a bit of workers’ history on the Parks Canada’s website. Workers built Canada and played a significant role in shaping its history, laws, institutions, and social progress, yet their role is not always recognized by national institutions. So it’s always interesting when a government department like Parks Canada chooses to recognize our history. Check it out at http://www.pc.gc.ca/culture/proj/tch-cwh/index.aspx
And on the subject of celebrating working class history, the Workers' History Museum will be outside the Bytown Museum on Col By Day on August 1st. So come down and say hello! We are eager to meet you and talk about the museum, our upcoming exhibition, and listen to your suggestions on what we can do better.
See you there!
