Each episode of Today in Canadian History contains an interview with a Canadian professor, journalist, author, or “everyday” historian and focuses on a unique event or moment that took place on that day in Canadian history. Today in Canadian History presents Canada’s past in a unique and accessible manner. The series is designed to be a first step to learning more about our past.

Kudos
A great podcast for expats like myself or anyone interested in dipping their toe into the Canadian history. The programs are compact and well informed. The broadcasters are lively and obviously interested in the topic. Great stuff. Please keep up the good work! From G.A.K. in Japan.
