In 2018, Know History’s Associate Director Connie Wren-Gunn was interviewed by the Globe & Mail about our role in a Parks Canada project to gather the Inuit oral histories of the Franklin Expedition, and knowledge of the land, sea and ice around the sites where HMS Erebus and HMS Terror lie.

From time to time our team members contribute stories to the History Hub on things that inspire and interest them. On June 16th, Emily Keyes attended “In Conversation: Alex Janvier” at the Glenbow Museum in Calgary. Here is her reflection on the event.

KH Senior Associate Elina Hill volunteered at the 42nd annual B.C. Elders’ Gathering in July, and writes about the event.

Know History is happy to share that we and our partners NVision Insight Group and Konek Productions will be participating in the Franklin Expedition Inuit Oral History Project. We look forward to supporting Inuit knowledge holders, community members, and Parks Canada experts in documenting Inuit knowledge about the 1845 Franklin Expedition and the wrecks of HMS Erebus and HMS Terror.
