Made in (North) America: How Americans Helped Shape Canada, and Why This Matters

Claire Campbell is a professor and chair of History and affiliate faculty in Environmental Studies & Sciences at Bucknell University, where she teaches widely in environmental history, including Early America, cartography, urban history, and coastal history.

In this talk, Dr. Campbell will visit some places and moments where Americans occupied or altered landscapes to the north, and in the process helped shape Canada's borders, politics, and identity. Her talk will also also explore the environmental implications of this shared history.
