As the centennial of the First World War approaches, the debate over whether Canada is the peaceable nation of Lester Pearson or a militarist nation forged in wartime is heating up.  The 2013 Eaton Lecture will tackle this issue head on.

Entitled Peaceable Kingdom or Warrior Nation?:  Canada's Identity Crisis, the lecture will take place Nov. 13 at 7 p.m. in the Eaton Theatre at the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto. View map and entrance location.

The 2013 Eaton Lecture will given by Lee Windsor, deputy director of UNB's The Gregg Centre for the Study of War and Society. Dr. Windsor specializes in Canadian Army history from the Second World War up to and including current missions abroad.
