I am hoping to organize a * panel conversation on Teaching the Early Modern * at this year's AMEMG in Moncton--showcasing creative teaching ideas. Please reach out to me with questions or ideas, and pass the word along to colleagues.

First of three farewell essays on one of the great blogs of Canadian history. Many thanks to the Borealia editors for their service! And to their three colleagues who are publishing reflections this week on Borealia's achievements

Always in your writing is the intellectual provocation to recognize the value of doing Canadian history with a touch of truthful humour: "Hume’s observation and Canadian perplexities together translated into [debate and policy that]...we might meaningfully describe as “woke.”" Thanks Elsbeth.
