Weaving Canadian History into Fiction [Ottawa Women On Ice canceled]

The Ottawa Women On Ice has been canceled

Speaker: Ian S. McKercher

Ian McKercher studied English and History at Queen’s University and came to Ottawa in 1969 to teach English at Glebe Collegiate. He is the author of five novels centred on the exploits of a fictional secretary hired to work for the fledgling Bank of Canada in 1934. The Underling was published in 2012, followed by The Incrementalist in 2016, Carbon Copy in 2019 and Death By Misadventure in 2022.  His fifth book published in the fall was titled Home and Away.  Copies of his books will be available for sale.

We will also hear about other great Ottawa skaters such as Barbara Ann Scott and Elizabeth Manley and watch some amazing footage of both of their premier performances. Help us to celebrate International Women’s Day at the OWCC as we remember these unforgettable accomplishments by women.
