REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN! THE COURSE BEGINS JANUARY 22, 2023!

The history of Toronto is filled with fascinating stories that teach us about ourselves and our community. In this ten-week online course, we'll explore the city's past from a time long before it was founded, through its days as a rowdy frontier town, and all the way to the sprawling megacity we know today. How did Toronto become the multicultural metropolis of the twenty-first century? The answer involves everything from duels to broken hearts to pigeons.

Explore the history of the city with the award-winning author of The Toronto Book of the Dead and The Toronto Book of Love, host of the Canadiana documentary series and recipient of an honourable mention for a Governor General's History Award.

Format: This course will include 10 weekly lectures on Zoom with a chance to interact and ask questions, as well as a list of recommended readings & viewings. Each week's lecture will last approximately 1 to 1.5 hours. Every lecture will also be available to stream online later for anyone who can't make that week's class.

Dates: January 22 to March 26, 2023.
