In October I participated in an environmental history workshop in Banff. The event was put together by the Department of History and Classics at the University of Alberta, and my participation was funded by the folks at NiCHE. I wrote a short article based on my experience, titled "Whose Community Is It Anyways? A Prince Edward Islander's View of Banff," and it is now available here. While not particularly about the environmental movement, I do believe that there are some important dynamics at play in Banff that need to be addressed.
You can check out NiCHE's original call for applicants here.
I would like to extend my gratitude to Drs. Liza Piper and Zac Robinson for leading this event. It was a real eye-opener.
