Event: Sep 24, 2025 | 08:00 AM (EDT)
Join us for an evening of discussion and celebration of the publication of Where Histories Meet: Indigenous and Settler Encounters in the Toronto Area, by Victoria Freeman.
Where Histories Meet traces the histories of the Toronto region’s Indigenous peoples and their relations with settlers, focusing on the period from the colonial treaties of the 1780s to the Indian Act of 1876. Created in consultation with five local First Nations, this groundbreaking study brings archival records, oral memory, and the voices of Indigenous Elders and Knowledge Keepers into respectful dialogue to understand the colonial dynamics that still structure Indigenous-Canadian relationships today. Where Histories Meet is published by Bighorn Books/University of Calgary Press.
