canadian encyclopedia

The Canadian Encyclopedia is the most authoritative resource on Canada. It is available online. Continuously updated, this uniquely Canadian resource provides over 40,000 articles, 6000 photographs as well as many interactive activities, maps, games, quizzes, videos and related Internet sites. Canada had been without an encyclopedia since the 1957 Encyclopedia Canadiana. In response to this Mel Hurtig, a staunch Canadian nationalist, launched a project to create a wholly new Canadian Encyclopedia and recruited over 3,000 authors to write for it. The first edition of The Canadian Encyclopedia was published in three volumes in 1985, and a revised and expanded edition was released in 1988. The company later published the Junior Canadian Encyclopedia. In 1995, the first CD-ROM edition was published. Currently the Historica Foundation, a not-for-profit foundation, publishes the encyclopedia for free online.
