The Confederation Chronicles
In this unit of seven lessons of various lengths, students will investigate the reasons for and against Confederation and the reaction of people, primarily politicians, in the colonies/provinces prior to Confederation. Students will obtain most of their information from primary-source documents available on the "EvidenceWeb" portion of the Learning Centre website, created by Library and Archives Canada. As a culminating activity, students will research, create, and present their work in newspaper format.
but the EvidenceWeb search tool does not work. You can still use "Browse Themes" to access the documents. I'd recommend downloading all of the content you want to use, in case some of it becomes unavailable in the future.
