Teachers and Students 
Join Us in the Discovery

Our community has only 2 years to examine our local history. This research is unprecedented and will shed a new light on our involvement with the rest of Upper Canada and First Nations Territories.

Sample:
Did you know that General Brock crossed the Grand River several times on his way to and from Ft. Malden and Fort Detroit? Did you know that we know exactly where?
Are you sure you know where the original Brant’s Fording Place is?
Why was this area so important for the Americans to attack in 1814?
Why were the First Nations so important to the outcome of this war?
Did the Iroquois, known as the Six Nations or the Haudenosaunee, benefit after the war was over?

We have established a War of 1812 200th Anniversary Committee that will explore, develop and share new information related to this area that will benefit the teachers in their history curriculum as well as support the First Nations, Metis, and Inuit Education Policy Framework.
