I'm enrolled in Canadian Art to 1914, and have been blown away. It's been my first class with all Canadian content... I encourage you all to take at least one Canadian-centric course before graduating. I've found the perspective it offers is so unique and obscure, despite mcGill being a canadian school.
Check out this particularily interesting painting by paul kane
and enjoy!

Hugh Maclennan was a fucking kickass Canadian author, as well as McGill professor and subject of a song by the Tragically Hip.
"This pale twilight bathing the city erased time: it called me back to the Montreal which once had been one of the true winter cities of the world, with iced toboggan slides on the mountain and snow-shoers in scarlet sashes and tuques and gray homespuns bright against the snow and shacks with rank coffee and acrid air where you warmed your half-frozen feet in front of Quebec heaters and felt young and clean and untroubled. It was gone now that we were learning to live like New Yorkers."
There's some Canadian content for ya.
