Canadian history
Northern nation's chronicle
Canadian history is the study or account of past events in Canada, from Indigenous peoples through European colonization, Confederation in 1867, and development as a nation.
School curricula typically cover this as a subject: We had a Canadian history exam on the fur trade.
The phrase often appears in discussions of national identity and what should be remembered or taught.
