Download or read book A Hoser s Guide to Canadian History written by Kirt Purdy and published by . This book was released on 2016-03 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The great thing about being Canadian is simply this: we don't take ourselves too seriously, which works out pretty well because no one else on the planet takes us seriously, either. If you're reading this book, there's a good chance you're a Canadian. But what does that mean? There are the stereotypical nods, such as politeness and apologizing, but there's so much more! To be honest, you've probably taken part in (or at least talked about) hockey, poutine, curling, canoes, health care, snowshoes, parkas, camping, beer, road work, Canadian Tire, Slurpees, moose, maple syrup, and Tim Hortons in the last 24 hours. "A Hoser's Guide to Canadian History" is your ticket to even more things "Canadian" that you may have missed during your water-cooler discussions, online chats, or your seventeen-hour wait in the local emergency room. As you read this book, you'll discover new and exciting facts about Canada that simply weren't taught in school. As a History teacher, I found the need to spread the unvarnished truth of this great nation's past. People like Sir John "Eh" MacDonald, Tommy Douglas, and Pierre Trudeau all had a distinct impact on this great country of ours, and part of their stories are included in these pages. Even less-famous folks who helped to shape Canada got a mention: John Humphrey, Laura Secord, and Egerton Ryerson. (Yes, "Egerton" is a real name.) Canada has an exciting past, full of events that have brought us to where we are now. Like all countries, we have some things we'd like to forget, but most of those unpleasant moments happened because we had morons in Parliament, something that doesn't happen anymore. Canadians have no need to apologize for being nice, honest, and caring people. So, please enjoy this book, and if you don't, well, I'm sorry.

Book excerpt: What do you know about the history of Canada? You might think you know a lot about Canada-especially if you happen to live in North America. But in truth, it's surprising how little most of us know about Canadian history. Even though Canada is just across the border from the United States, Canada tends to get unfairly overshadowed. Nevertheless, Canada's history is a vibrant one. Recorded Canadian history begins with European contact in the 1500s, but there are plenty of rich legends and folklore passed down by Native North Americans that fill in the gaps. This book follows the threads of the many civilizations that made up Canada and their ultimate merging together to forge the rich tapestry that makes up Canada today. The history of Canada is more than first meets the eye, so keep reading to learn more! In this groundbreaking treatise on Canadian history, you will discover: The origins of the First Nations, the artifacts they left behind, and how they are faring today The early French and English settlements and how they interacted with the First Nations Canada's participation in the world wars and the bravery of its soldiers on the battlefield Canada's role during the Cold War and how it acted as one of the first defenses against nuclear threats to North America Canadian independence and how the French speakers in Quebec sought their own independence as well And so much more!
