Happy Birthday to The Canadian Encyclopedia

The Canadian Encyclopedia's birthday is today.
I've worked with the editorial team for 10 years already. Wow, the time has flown.

When I tell people about my job, I'm still surprised by how many -- Canadians, all -- are not aware of this incredible educational resource.

"You sell encyclopedias?" I've been asked.

No, no! Oh, once upon a time there were printed editions for sale, but now all the articles are free online, easily accessible. Do you have kids or grandkids in school, writing reports for their social studies class? Then the Canadian Encyclopedia is a website they want to use. Teachers love it.

Anything you want to know about Canadian culture, history, music, people ... on and on it goes ... look for it at the website and bookmark the page for future reference. It's http://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.com.
