This course will consider some of the individuals, both historically prominent and lesser known, who have helped to shape Canada and the social and/or impact that they left behind. An examination of these figures will offer insight into Canada's evolution from a British colony to more recent constitutional challenges. Themes include race, class, gender, identity, sexuality, indigeneity, colonialism, slavery, immigration, moral regulation, and activism. A focus will be on Indigenous leaders who helped shape Canada (Frank Calder, Elijah Harper, Louis Riel.), including local leaders. 2026/01/13-2026/04/21 Lecture Tuesday 09:00AM - 12:00PM, 4155 Belshaw, Room M069
