Markham Suburbs

We are pleased to be back, now in our second year of operation.

Last year saw some great progress, with governance being set in place and the creation of a well-attended speakers series.  Please see our film coverage of both events, featuring Dr Kingwell and Dr McLuhan, as well as articles devoted to reviewing and discussing their ideas.  We were also happy to co-sponsor other speakers on campus, and look forward to deepening our partnerships.  Many thanks to agency members for their tireless commitment to making this Institute a vibrant and exciting new part of the Lakehead community.
