Canadians will be aware that the country is preparing to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Confederation, the date conventionally seen as marking the establishment of Canada as a nation-state.
The government has planned a wide range of programs to mark the anniversary, perhaps the best-known of which is commitment to provide free entry to all national parks in 2017.
The theme of this year’s Canadian Business History Association conference will be 150 Years of Canadian Business.
The conference, which will take place in September, will consist of multiple plenary sessions by industry categories and with appropriate academic, archival, government, public and industry leader speakers. Several prominent keynote speakers will be engaged on broader themes for keynote presentations.
