Abstract
The objectives of these lessons are for students to explore and develop
historical inquiry skills when studying conflicts within Canada that will permeate into
continuous evaluation and inquiry into current day events and conflicts in Canada. The
focus is on skill building rather than memorization of facts therefore, it is pertinent that
students be encouraged to ask questions and pursue answers on their own. The use of
primary sources are to engage and help students act as historians and do history. These
lessons explore conflicts between French and English Canada such as the Conscription
crisis and Regulation 17 but also conflicts between other members of Canadian society
including the rise labour unions and constitutional crisis’. Students will largely be assessed
on their ability to portray the habits of a historian via primary sources analysis and other
exercises connected to the historical concepts.
