James Miller Obituary September 11, 2025 - Saskatoon Funeral Home View James Miller's obituary, send flowers, find service dates, and sign the guestbook.

Saddened to learn that J.R (Jim) Miller passed away a little over a week ago. His scholarship on Indigenous history, I think it is fair to say, was extremely influential for many of us - and his survey textbooks provided an accessible entry point. www.saskatoonfuneralhome.com/obituaries/j...

Canadians reclaim Maple Leaf flag amid Trump threats As Canada marks another birthday, a subtle but noticeable shift in patriotism is taking place. One that experts say not just reflects pride, but also complexity, critique and quiet defiance.

β€œThere has definitely been a surge of patriotism,” said Matthew Hayday, professor and chair of the Department of History at the University of Guelph.
