History on the Web / L’Histoire sur la toile

Abstract

Witness to Yesterday/Témoins d’hier, the new podcast series produced by the Champlain Society, is hosted by Patrice Dutil and Greg Marchildon. Each episode presents an interview with authors who are shaping, or even reshaping, interpretations of Canadian history. Although they are not in history departments in the respective universities at Ryerson University and the University of Toronto, Dutil and Marchildon are seasoned historians who have made significant contributions to Canadian political, business and policy history for over thirty years. They began production of the podcasts in 2017 and have already interviewed a number of historians, the majority of whom are professional historians and members of the Canadian Historical Association.
