SUMMARY:University of Regina launches The Canada 150 Lecture Series: The Making of Canada
DESCRIPTION:A new public lecture series at the University of Regina will mark the 150th Anniversary of Confederation and the birth of Canada in 1867. The Canada 150 Lecture Series: The Making of Canada features six lectures over four days\, starting on January 19 with Canadian historian Christopher Moore’s lecture: “A Living Tree? Canada’s Constitution 150 Years Ago – and Today.” Moore has been called Canada’s most versatile writer of history. The Toronto-based writer has been presenting Canadian history to non-specialist audiences through many media for 20 years. \nMore than recounting events leading to Confederation in 1867\, the series of six lectures will reflect on the spirit and principles of the original dreams of the founders of Canada. The lectures consider how those goals and aspirations for a new country have played out in the past 150 years\, and how they might be updated to reflect the very different society in which we now live. \n“The Canada 150 Lecture Series aligns with the University of Regina’s commitment to our communities by asking important and timely questions that help make Canada’s history\, and its future\, relevant to all its citizens today\,” says President and Vice-Chancellor Dr. Vianne Timmons. \nAll lectures start at 7:30 p.m. and are followed by a reception. There is no charge and everyone is welcome. \nFollowing is a list of The Canada 150 Lecture Series.

SUMMARY:The Canadian Pacific Railway and the Founding of Regina
DESCRIPTION:The founding of Regina in 1882 followed a pattern that dates back to the earliest days of European settlement in North America: the creation of towns (and future cities in some cases) by an individual or some organized body\, rather than by the settlers when they arrived. In Regina’s case it was the Canadian Pacific Railway that founded our city. \nSo why was Regina located on a flat and cheerless plain\, with a small meandering creek its only visible water supply?   \nWhen the CPR laid out the townsite why did it make the streets so narrow and the lots so small? \nAnd with so little natural beauty\, why was Regina chosen to become the capital of the North-West Territories?  \n  \nOn January 24\, Dr. Bill Brennan will explain how Regina came to be. \n  \nBill has written the most detailed history of our city: Regina: An Illustrated History. He has also published articles about Regina in scholarly journals such as Prairie Forum\, Saskatchewan History and the Urban History Review. \n  \nRefreshments will be provided. A $10 suggested donation to Heritage Regina goes towards the promotion and preservation of heritage in your community.
