Hi fellow Wikipedian,
I'm a new to Wiki parental unit. I'm a Canadian communications and database professional with a Masters degree from University of Western Ontario and Army command and control background. I have a few young adult children who understand the Wiki world better than I do, but I do have a lifelong interest in Canadian history. I have a couple of pre-Confederation Canadiana bibliographies published through the [then--National Library of Canada] Library and Archives Canada. In a former life I worked for the National Library of Canada in technology.
I spend summers running with our German Shepherds and generally enjoying time travelling around Canada. My favorite Canadian places are:
Toefield, Alberta (not too far from Viking, Alberta)
Fairmont, British Columbia (an hours drive from the Columbia Ice Fields)
Wainwright, Alberta (pretty amazing on the base when the bison are mating)
Georgian Bay area of Ontario--particularly Owen Sound home of our German Shepherds.
Winters I spend enjoying the spectacular winter wonderland of Eastern Ontario and a bit of consulting in the command and control world.
My areas of interest are as you might expect -- pre-Confederation Canadiana.
I've written an article on
