MP Hiebert defends cuts to archive program
PeaceArchNews Share/Partager 
 The federal government is not responsible for the elimination of the National Archival Development 
Program - a move critics say could lead to the collapse of Canada's archival system. That´s the message 
from South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP Russ Hiebert, responding to an open letter to him from 
White Rock Museum and Archives' Hugh Ellenwood, published in Tuesday's Peace Arch News. More/LIRE

Queen's jewel-studded 'Maple Leaf' dress takes spotlight at Museum of Civilization
Canada.com Share/Partager 
 With all of Britain immersed in a weekend of supreme pageantry celebrating the 60th anniversary of Queen 
Elizabeth's reign, details about how Canada's main history museum will mark this year's Diamond Jubilee 
have quietly emerged. More/LIRE PLUS

Now and then: Cowboy art through the years at the Glenbow Museum
Calgary Herald Share/Partager 
 The late Charlie Russell created the imagery and iconography that would form the foundation of our pop-
culture notions of the mythical Alberta cowboy, but contemporary artists have often sought to challenge and 
deconstruct those notions. Two exhibitions on now at the Glenbow Museum give a back-to-back look at 
each of those approaches. More/LIRE PLUS

Canada's cutting-edge meteorite research a victim of budget cuts
The Vancouver Sun Share/Partager 
 One of Claire Samson's favourite objects is a thumb-sized lump of (mostly) iron from a distant part of the 
solar system, its surface pitted and scoured by its super-hot fall through Earth's atmosphere. Rocks do fall 
from the sky, and Canada's meteorite experts have built themselves into a world power in the specialized 
field of studying them. More/LIRE PLUS

Billion-year old meteorites, found in Canada, go on auction
Canada.com Share/Partager 
 A slice of one of Canada's most famous meteorites - a large chunk of which was traded by the Geological 
Survey of Canada in 1997 to acquire a major U.S. collection of space rocks - is to be sold for up to $8,000 
at a Bonhams auction in New York. More/LIRE PLUS

L'audace derrière le maquillage
Le Devoir Share/Partager 
 Quelque 175 oeuvres, signées par 47 artistes au cours des années 1929 à 1969, dévoileront cet été l'âme 
féminine et souvent occultée du surréalisme. À l'invitation du Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec 
(MNBAQ), qui reçoit dès jeudi Au pays des merveilles. More/LIRE PLUS

A perfect day at Doors Open Ottawa
Ottawa Citizen Share/Partager 
 With 128 buildings offering architecture, history and stories during Doors Open Ottawa, making a checklist 
can be daunting. More/LIRE PLUS

Restoring vintage bicycle was quite a ride
Herald News Share/Partager 
 Darrell Thompson never worked on a bicycle until his boss at Highland Ford took on the restoration of a 
British-made penny farthing for a New Glasgow museum. His auto body experience paid off, resulting in a 
gleaming black machine accented with rich-looking brown handle grips to match the new leather seat and 
tool bag, as well as highly polished brass bits. It´s as close to the original 130-year-old machine as he could 
get, except for removing rust and a 20th-century layer of silver paint, and replacing rotting rubber tires and 
a disintegrating padded leather seat. More/LIRE PLUS

Écarts critiques
Le Devoir Share/Partager 
 La biennale d'art numérique tire déjà à sa fin. Plusieurs des projets exposés dans le cadre de cette 
première édition faisaient la part belle aux expériences perceptuelles misant sur les effets lumino-sonores 
que le numérique permet de mettre en scène avec efficacité. More/LIRE PLUS

Cabinet curiosities create movable art
Edmonton Journal Share/Partager 
 We joke about how we'd love to rifle through other people's drawers, but seldom do we get the chance. 
The Fast &Dirty art collective has assembled a quirky, intriguing mobile art show featuring five dressers 
with curious, artful contents. Twenty artists are involved in Curiosities, each of them assigned one drawer 
that adheres to that dresser´s theme, be it 'family', 'intimacy' and 'landscape'. There is a different curator for 
each dresser. More/LIRE PLUS

Le passé glorieux de la bière Dow exposé
La Presse Share/Partager 
 Pendant longtemps, au siècle dernier, la bière Dow se vendait plus au Québec que ses concurrentes 
Molson et O'Keefe réunies. Établie dans Griffintown en 1818, la brasserie Dow est devenue, au fil des 
décennies, un foyer d'innovation sur le plan des affaires, brassicole et commercial, se hissant aux premiers 
rangs de l'industrie montréalaise avec quelque 1000 employés et 60 édifices réunis autour de l'intersection 
Notre-Dame et Peel. More/LIRE PLUS

The art of living
Calgary Herald Share/Partager 
 For an inspiring 'worked-her-way-up-the-corporate-ladder' story, look no further than Kirstin Evenden. 
Since first getting her foot in the door of the Glenbow Museum some 20 years ago as a three-month cultural 
history department intern, she's since moved up to her current position as president and CEO of this highly 
regarded cultural institution. Her passion for Glenbow and its mandate is as strong as ever. More/LIRE

Get around, get around, I get around
The Sault Star Share/Partager 
 It's been years coming but the septic, electricity, and plumbing is set to be installed in the round barn, now 
located in Sowerby, east of Sault Ste. Marie. The Sowerby barn is one of two polygonal, 12-sided - or 
correctly called dodecagonal -barns in Algoma and both have reasons to celebrate this summer. Only 
three of this unique barn style remain in Canada. More/LIRE PLUS

War of 1812 exhibit at military museum
Brantford Expositor Share 
 Displays featuring weaponry, uniforms and the spartan lifestyle of soldiers during the War of 1812 are 
featured at a display at the Canadian Military Heritage Museum on Greenwich Street. Tucked at the back of 
the museum, visitors enter a 'fortification' smartly designed using weathered wooden posts discarded from 
a ginseng farm to find showcases filled with items that bring the long ago conflict to life. More

Calgary history's port of call
Calgary Sun Share/Partager 
 Naval history has docked in Calgary. The Military Museums Sunday unveiled the port propeller from the 
HMCS Huron, a Tribal-class Destroyer that protected Canada's waters between 1972 and 2005. Since 
2007, the ship has rested about 100 km from Vancouver Island after it was decommissioned and sunk 
during the Royal Canadian Navy´s Exercise Trident Fury. More/LIRE PLUS

Short sail sparks decades of memories
Herald News Share/Partager 
 She had been laying here at Naval Armament Depot in Dartmouth, in the full view of all who crossed the 
Angus L. Macdonald Bridge, since her decommissioning 14 years earlier. I would often catch a glimpse of 
her as I crossed the bridge. More/LIRE PLUS

Trail of the unexpected: Winnipeg
The Independent Share/Partager 
What's the difference between a buffalo and a bison? The answer escapes me as I tuck into another succulent rib doused in smoky 
chipotle sauce. The menu at Fude - a highly original restaurant in the Osborne quarter of Manitoba's capital, Winnipeg - is full of 
unusual temptations. More/LIRE PLUS
