An Accidental History of Canada explores accidents, their causes, consequences, and afterlife, in colonial, Indigenous, and urban contexts, from the 1630s to the 1970s. These investigations make plain that accidents have significant social, cultural and policy meaning, and reveal aspects of precarity and inequity.
