And after: The consequences of World War 1

Heritage Ottawa 2018 Phillips Memorial Lecture

AND AFTER: The Consequences of World War 1

In commemoration of the centenary of the First World War,  joint Canada-France symposiums were held in the National Assembly in Paris last May and the Senate in Ottawa last November.  The symposiums gave participants the opportunity to reassess the defining impact the War of 1914-1918 had on Canada, its Parliament, its institutions, its people and its economy.  The outcome saw the publication of a book, Le Canada et la France dans la Grande Guerre, 1914-1918, co-edited by Senator Serge Joyal and military historian Serge Bernier.

Heritage Ottawa is honoured to welcome The Hon. Senator Serge Joyal as the 2018 Phillips Memorial Lecture speaker who will be sharing the transformative effects the Great War had on all levels of society, which still resonate to this day.
