When the Canada Aviation and Space Museum first opened at Uplands Airport in Ottawa in 1960, it presented one of three major collections owned by the Canadian government. At that time, the National Aviation Museum’s focus was on bush flying and early aircraft manufacturers in Canada. A second collection, held by the Canadian War Museum, concentrated on military aircraft from the First World War to the 1950’s, while the third collection held by the Royal Canadian Air Force’s (RCAF) emphasized military aircraft related to RCAF history.

Canada's largest and most popular cultural institution, The Canadian Museum of Civilization presents over 10,000 years of Canada's pre-history, history and culture. The Museum building is an architectural masterpiece -- a symbolic depiction of a land sculpted by winds, waters and glaciers at the end of the Ice Age, when humans first crossed into Canada from Asia.
UPDATED: February 20th, 2011 - Added images with artworks by Bill Reid, notably his sculpture Spirit of Haida Gwaii.

SLAGUE – L’histoire d’un mineur (Spitting Slag) is a shocking and intelligent piece, scathing, and moving, eloquently written with a certain musicality to its rhythm and lyricism. Frank, direct language, sometimes crude, emitting a strangled cry in a universe that seems strangely like Jean Marc Dalpe’s. In Mansel Robinson, Jean Marc Dalpé has found a colleague. His robust works, with their brawny, virile poetry, hoist themselves to the rank of Canadian classics. Dalpé is the translator designated to showcase the drama of this Northern Ontarian, just as he brilliantly did with Trains fantômes (Ghost Trains), a production of Théâtre Triangle Vital.
