History is not a plaything
Winnipeg Free Press Share/Partager 
 Replacing the Canadian Museum of Civilization with the proposed Canadian Museum of History will rob 
Canadians of our largest and most popular museum by getting rid of an internationally recognized 
institution that has been at the forefront of historical and archeological research on human cultural heritage 
in Canada and internationally. More/LIRE PLUS



Exhibit honours Alberta labour
Canmore Leader Share/Partager 
 A new exhibit celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Alberta Federation of Labour has landed at the 
Canmore Museum &Geoscience Centre. The labour federation, founded on June 14, 1912 in Lethbridge, 
was a crucial organization for labourers in Alberta, and was responsible for setting such standards as the 
eight-hour workday. Museum director Debbie Carrico is hoping that Bow Valley residents will find much to 
relate to in the traveling exhibit. More/LIRE PLUS

Droits d'auteur: Québec dédommagera des artistes
La Presse Share/Partager 
 Québec vient en partie réparer auprès des artistes les dommages causés par la nouvelle loi fédérale sur 
les droits d'auteur. Les ministres de l'Éducation, Marie Malavoy, et de la Culture et des Communications, 
Maka Kotto, ont annoncé la conclusion de deux ententes touchant les droits des artistes, dont une qui 
constitue une première, puisqu'elle inclut les artistes interprètes. More/LIRE PLUS

 Mark Sakai has left his position as executive director of the Delta Museum and Archives to take a job with 
the Greater Vancouver Homebuilders' Association. Sakai spent four years with the museum, finishing at the 
end of November. Sakai, who was previously employed at the Gulf of Georgia Cannery in Richmond, said

Planetarium adds more Mayan-focused showings

 The Planetarium at the Manitoba Museum has added two evening shows of its 'Ancient Skies, Ancient 
Mysteries' program. The additional shows will run on Friday, Dec. 21, the day the current Mayan calendar 
ends. Ancient Skies delves into the Mayan prophesy that says the world will end on Dec. 21, 2012. Several 
other astronomical events will also take place on this day. More/LIRE PLUS

STM: 2 oeuvres en restauration
Le Devoir Share/Partager 
 La Société de transport de Montréal (STM) a annoncé le retrait de deux oeuvres tirées de sa collection 
permanente, qui ont besoin d'être restaurées. Le travail a été confié au Centre de conservation du Québec 
qui aura pour tâche de nettoyer et de réparer les cinq vitraux qui composent La vie à Montréal au XIXe 
siècle de Nicolas Sollogoub (station McGill) et les 32 bandes verticales d'aluminium texturé signées 
Charles Daudelin (station Mont-Royal). More/LIRE PLUS

Make gift-giving a real work of art
Postmedia News Share/Partager 
 At this busy time of year, you might think of museums and galleries only as refuges from bad weather or 
the in-laws. But think again: Most have terrific gifts shops overflowing with gift ideas ranging from calendars 
and coffee mugs to jewelry, clothing and precious works of art, many of them also available online. We took 
a look at some of the museums and galleries across Canada, and here are just a few of the goodies we 
found. More/LIRE PLUS
