Canada 150 Ten Minute Talks: "The Irish Origins of Canadian Confederation: A Slightly Twisted Perspective" (Prof. David Wilson)

The "Ten Minute Talks" series will be afternoon events held during the winter semester, and led by faculty from the History Department. Light refreshments will be provided. The idea is that these will be very short talks giving a basic introduction to the issues for a non-specialized audience, followed by discussion.

This talk will be given by Professor David Wilson, whose background in modern North Atlantic history is specialized in modern Irish history and the Irish in North America.
