[edit] Vision Behind The Canadian History Project

The vision behind The Canadian History Project is to create a flexible open content text which can be edited by any member of the community which also fits into the Ontario Curriculum.

This is a work in progress with seed content from wikipedia and wikibooks, if you have suggestions or ideas to add in feel free but please do not completely rewrite what has already been written unless grossly inaccurate. Please correct spelling, grammar, dates, names, places and any other such faux pas liberally.
