Don’t Blast the Past: Webinar

Learn about a fascinating historic, cultural heritage site, its spiritual connection to First Nations, its central role in Indigenous and colonial activities between the Lower and Upper Great Lakes, and its critical role in the survival of a nation.

On the East Holland River in the Lake Simcoe watershed, it had many names, but today this place that shaped the province is known as the Lower Landing.

The Bradford Bypass threatens to obliterate it.

Find out the history hiding in plain sight and what we can do about it in a time of reconciliation.
