THIS COURSE WILL RETURN IN THE AUTUMN OF 2024!

Toronto has a bloody past. It's filled with stories of chilling crimes stretching back to the days when the city was founded. And while these tales may send shivers up our spines, they also have a lot to teach us about the place we call home. In this online course, we'll explore the history of the city through the stories of its most infamous homicides. From gangsters and serial killers to housemaids and schoolchildren, we'll meet the murderers who've been terrorizing Toronto for more than 200 years.

Explore the history of the city with the author of The Toronto Book of the Dead and The Toronto Book of Love, host of the Canadiana documentary series, and recipient of the Governor General's History Award for Popular Media — the Pierre Berton Award.

Format: This course will include 5 weekly lectures on Zoom with a chance to interact and ask questions, as well as a list of recommended readings & other links. Each week's lecture will last approximately 1 to 1.5 hours. Every lecture will also be available to stream online later for anyone who can't make that week's class.
