Editorial guidelines for writing in our Canada's History and Kayak magazines.

Watch now: in this webinar presentation editor Nancy Payne and art director James Gillespie as they discuss their approach to making history come alive for kids in Kayak: Canada's History Magazine for Kids. 

In 2018, Canada’s History Society published “Treaties and the Treaty Relationship,” a magazine aimed at adults and secondary-level students. A second magazine intended for younger audiences, “We Are All Treaty People,” was published as the September 2018 issue of Kayak.

When Europeans starting coming to North America to live, they changed everything. How did they affect the people who were already here? Where did the newcomers come from and where did they settle? And how did they live? This edition of Kayak and selection of educational resources shares some of these stories.

This year, Canada’s History Society is publishing two magazines on Treaties and the Treaty Relationship. The first, under the banner of Canada’s History, is aimed at adults and secondary-level students. The second magazine is intended for younger audiences and will be published as the September issue of Kayak.
