Le projet de loi C-49 déposé
La Presse Share/Partager 
 Le gouvernement conservateur a mis à exécution sa promesse du mois dernier en déposant, hier matin, le 
projet de loi C-49, la Loi sur le Musée canadien de l'histoire. Résolument tourné vers le Canada, le nouvel 
établissement aura pour mission « d'accroître la connaissance, la compréhension et le degréd'appréciation 
des Canadiens à l'égard d'événements, d'expériences, de personnes et d'objets qui incarnent l'histoire et 
l'identité canadiennes, qu'ils ont façonnées, ainsi que de les sensibiliser à l'histoire du monde et aux autres 
cultures », selon le texte législatif. More/LIRE PLUS

Canada's car collection in sorry state
Sympatico Autos Share/Partager 
 The Canadian government has an excellent classic car collection. Not many people know that. But, the 
feds paid for roughly 100 vehicles squirreled away in a warehouse. The collection is part of the Canadian 
Museum of Science and Technology it Ottawa. The museum was set up quickly in time for the 1967 
Centennial celebrations at a temporary location on the outskirts of the city. More/LIRE PLUS

Art Gallery of Windsor could close if the city does not purchase the building
Windsorite.ca Share/Partager 
 Employees of the Art Gallery of Windsor, who are represented by the Canadian Union of Public 
Employees, say that the gallery could close unless Windsor City Council agrees to purchase the gallery 
building. Council will debate a proposal to purchase the building for up to 2.5 million dollars, the Art Gallery 
of Windsor would then enter into a lease with the city for $1.00 per year for the second and third floor 
space, and the mezzanine area. The city will also cut off its annual grant of $450,000 to the gallery.

Architect chosen to design Winnipeg Art Gallery's Inuit Art and Learning Centre
CBC Manitoba Share/Partager 
 Once a collection of contemporary Inuit art climbs to more than 13,000 pieces, more storage space is 
probably in order. When the Winnipeg Art Gallery went looking for an architect to design their new Inuit Art 
and Learning Centre, there was interest from 65 architectural teams from 15 different countries. More/LIRE

Submarine arrives at military museum
Canadian Manufacturing Share/Partager 
 The HMCS Ojibwa is nearly home. Home, for the last of Canada's Oberon class submarines, is the Elgin 
Military Museum in Port Burwell, Ontario on the north shore of Lake Erie. When it was decommissioned 
from the Royal Canadian Navy in 1998, the vessel was destined to be scrapped, but a movement to save 
the ship resulted in it becoming the property of the museum. More/LIRE PLUS

Lawren Harris sketch soars past estimates at Sotheby's auction
CBC News Share/Partager 
 A landscape by Group of Seven painter Lawren Harris was the big highlight at Sotheby's recent auction of 
Canadian art, as it sold for far more than experts thought it would bring. Arctic Sketch XXII was in the 
catalogue with an estimated price of $400,000 to $600,000. But when the hammer finally came down, it had 
sold for $865,000. More/LIRE PLUS

artist-run centres in the province. Danielle Tremblay, executive director of Sudbury's Galerie du Nouvel-
