Calgary's History

The War Years 1914-1947

The Fall 2023 Group "Frontier Calgary" was hugely successful in portraying Calgary's early history. The Group was focused on biographical sketches and had several outstanding external experts, as well as some on-site visits.

This winter series will explore the critical years of 1914 – 47, mainly via mini-presentations by group members on individuals and trends from that era. Each of the sessions will tackle a distinct theme, e.g. World War One (Impacts), World War Two (Impacts), The Depression, Labour, Education, Oil and Gas, Indigenous Peoples, Ethnic Groups, and so on.
