CANADIAN HISTORY SINCE WORLD WAR ONE
CHC2D
Canadian History Since World War 1 (CHC2D) explores Canada's history since 1914.
We'll explore how Canada became what it is today through the stories and events often overlooked by traditional Canadian history courses.
Jews came to Canada as immigrants and, in many instances, saw sports (of all things!) as a way to feel more at home in Canada. As we delve into these stories, we'll explore how social, economic and political changes impact the lives and identities of all Canadians.
This course fulfills the compulsory requirement for Grade 10 Canadian History.
CHC2D is a year course beginning in October.
We meet twice a week for 25 weeks, with all Jewish and civil holidays off.
Although we'd like you to start in October, you can join the course up until the end of November.
There are no unit tests, and no quizzes that count toward your grade.
Beginning in 2026–2027, every Ontario course must include a written final evaluation completed during the designated exam period. Ours is Culminating Day, and it is built entirely around a topic you choose.
Nothing to cram. Nothing you haven't seen. Your topic, defended twice — once out loud, once on paper.
Culminating Day takes place in June, during the designated exam period.
The clip above is the (now) famous "I Am Canadian" rant which anchored a Molson beer ad campaign in March, 2000. As much as we Canadians think we know what a "Canadian" is, this commercial presents a particular perspective.
Yes, it's filled with stereotypes of Canadians (and Americans), but it seems to have struck a chord with a lot of Canadians.
Why? In this course, we'll address this question and so many more about our history and how Canada became Canada.
