CHC2D Canadian History since World War I (Grade 10)
The compulsory Grade 10 history credit: Canada from the trenches of WWI through the Charter era to reconciliation today. Evidence-based historical thinking — sourcing, causation, perspective — is the actual curriculum; the century is the material.
Inside the course
WWI and Canada in the 1920s–30s
WWII and postwar transformation
Rights and citizenship: from suffrage to the Charter
Contemporary Canada and reconciliation
Historical inquiry: sources, evidence and argument
Where it leads
Diploma-compulsory; the essay and source-analysis habits transfer directly to ENG3U and CHY4U.
PREREQUISITE
