The Friends are conducting a live interview with historian Alan Taylor, author of The Civil War of 1812, in partnership with the Canadian Institute for Historical Education who will livestream and record it, on the evening of November 11th at 7:00 p.m. at Yorkminster Park Baptist Church, Cameron Hall located at 1585 Yonge Street.
This is a welcome initiative by FoFY director Alanna Loucks, chair of our publications committee, herself a professional historian. She says: “I have been asking different people, including historians, political scientists, journalists, heritage architects, and City of Toronto planners, to reflect on the kinds of conversations that are being provoked by the changing geopolitical relationship between Canada and the US to try to capture multiple perspectives.” This interview with Alan Taylor will be one of those conversations.
