Edna Cress Staebler was a fairly typical young woman when she arrived at the University of Toronto in 1926. While attending the university, she explored the new ideas and norms of the interwar era. This article examines Staebler’s experiences within the context of modernity, the university and the creation of a Canadian nation. Staebler’s university years provided the foundations for her later career as a journalist and author during which she helped to create a modern Canadian national identity.

William Tutte, born in Newmarket, completed a master’s degree in chemistry at Cambridge at the end of 1940, whereupon he was recruited to work at Bletchley Park as a cryptographer. He became the primary person responsible for breaking the Fish code used for high-level Army communication. After the war he returned to Cambridge as a Fellow of Trinity College, for three years of study for a PhD in mathematics. On completing his degree in 1948, he joined the Faculty of the University of Toronto, where he rose to pre-eminence in combinatorics. In 1962 he moved to the University of Waterloo, where he had a significant role in the development of the university and its Faculty of Mathematics.

Work began on March 29th, and continued, with the usual break for Easter, until June 17th, with an average of about sixty to seventy workmen. Mr. W. A. Kirkwood of the University of Toronto was present for the first few weeks, rendering valuable assistance, and later Mr. C. H. Hawes of Trinity College, Cambridge, in the course of a journey in Crete undertaken for anthropological work, came and superintended the excavation of a Middle Minoan ossuary and some larnax-burials at Sarandári, of which his report is given below (§ 7). At the end of the season Mr. Guy Dickins of New College, Oxford, came, and, besides other work, undertook the laborious task of packing the finds for transport to the Candia Museum and there unpacking them.

This article argues that the 22 October 1967 broadcast of The Air of Death was a central event in the emergence of environmental activism in Ontario. A production of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, The Air of Death examined air pollution’s adverse impact upon the environment. This documentary drew the ire of industrial interests as a result of its allegations of human fluorosis poisoning in Dunnville, Ontario. Subsequently, the film and the team behind it were subjected to two high-profile investigations, an Ontario ordered Royal Commission and a Canadian Radio-Television Commission hearing. This controversy resulted in the creation Ontario’s first two environmental activist organizations, most notably the highly influential Pollution Probe at the University of Toronto, which would play a key role in shaping the province’s nascent environmental community.

The creation of the Turtle Island Journal of Indigenous Health (TIJIH) emerged out of conversations in 2018 between an Indigenous professor1 and non-Indigenous graduate students working within Indigenous health research at the University of Toronto. TIJIH was intended to connect graduate students, Indigenous scholars, and Indigenous communities into a platform for work that focused on Indigenous health. The idea has since morphed into the establishment of a peer-reviewed journal and an accompanying Community of Practice (CoP) where people with an interest in Indigenous health can discuss, collaborate, and co-learn.
