A Perfect Square: Environmental Control and Settler Vision at Brandon Industrial School Brandon Industrial School exemplified settler-colonial control, using landscaped grounds, forced labour, and distant relocation to erase Indigenous land relationships.

"A Perfect Square: Environmental Control and Settler Vision at Brandon Industrial School" by Taryn Goff is the latest article in our Land, Memory, & Schooling: Environmental Histories of Colonial Education series edited by @jdunkin.bsky.social & Crystal Gail Fraser.

#JamesBarryDiary 3/12/1875 Something milder and very good going indeed. There is just enough snow for sledding, and no more. Cunningham here in the mill and myself bookbinding as hard as I can — a fearful quantity of books to bind. All well. Amen.

**Black-and-white historical photograph of an indoor ice hockey game. Five players are on the ice: one in a light-colored sweater with number 5, facing four opponents in dark striped sweaters, shorts, and striped socks. The player with the puck is crouched low, stick on the ice, while defenders close in. A goal net is visible in the background against boarded rink walls with sparse spectators. The image has a decorative oval border.**

On this day in 1909, the National Hockey Association was formed with initially four teams. The league introduced three period hockey, allowed player changes on the fly and eliminated the rover position. The league operated until 1917 when the NHL replaced it.

Matt & I talked railways this week for our #HiddenHistory of #swont. The #GrandTrunkRailway was opened in November 1859 & built by Casimir Gzowski, Peter Gzowski’s great-great-grandfather. Sarnia-Toronto took 7 hrs & cost $5. #cdnhist #ldnont - www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

Screen capture of a book cover. It's a white background with a picture of part of a multicolored lobster dominating the bottom 2/3 of the cover. Book title is Contested catch: lobster, localism and Canada's Atlantic coast, 1870 to 1970

It's finally here. A history of the Nova Scotia lobster fishery.

Morton is truly an historian's historian, and from the installments I've seen, the book is going to have riches of social history, politics, economics, and even some marine biology.

#JamesBarryDiary 27/11/1875 Rained last night this day was soft all through. Freezing a little in the evening. I went to Pictou today with Geo. McLeod. Got some type from McLean and paid him $5 and he owed me $2.50 cts before. Cunningham here all day and here tonight. I gave him $5.

#JamesBarryDiary 26/11/1875 Pretty cold last night, but this day was calm. Good sleighing now all the way to Pictou, they say. I finished my Carpenter work upstairs nearly, got the place all cleared out and my bed put in the north room. The library is in the South room. I am some better period Amen.

#JamesBarryDiary 25/11/1875 A real wintery looking day; snowing a little most of the time and freezing hard. Cunningham attending the mill and kiln. I was busy all day ceiling my bed-room upstairs in the new house. As much Oats coming in as we can do on both kilns, but most of the grists are small.
