Posted on January 12th, 2011 in Events

THINK YOU KNOW VANCOUVER? THINK AGAIN. As part of Vancouver’s 125th Anniversary year celebrations SFU’s department of History and department of Urban Studies are proud to present the first in a year-long series of lectures based on Vancouver’s history.

Vancouver: The Greatest Place on Earth?
TV and Radio personality Charles Demers and SFU Urban Studies professor Matt Hern talk about Vancouver without the rose-coloured glasses in an honest and witty discussion. Both are authors of recent books exploring various aspects of Vancouver’s history.

This is a free public lecture, but RSVPs are appreciated: http://cgi.sfu.ca/~hccweb/cgi-bin/OnlineRegistration/site/event/detail.php?id=205.
