Overview
The Canada Program, funded by the William Lyon Mackenzie King endowment, examines Canadian economic, social, cultural, and political issues in their domestic and international dimensions. Chaired by the William Lyon Mackenzie King Visiting Professor of Canadian Studies, the Canada Seminar meets several times each semester to host presentations by invited scholars, artists, public figures, and experts from various disciplines. The seminar provides a forum for the lively exchange of ideas on a wide range of issues and offers the Harvard community of faculty and students a perspective on Canadian scholarly and public life. Ruth Phillips, Canada Research Chair in Modern Culture and Professor of Art History in the School for Studies in Art and Culture, Carleton University, is the 2009–2010 William Lyon Mackenzie King Visiting Professor.
