The Canadian Club of Halton (CCH) is pleased to host Ted Barris speaking on “Battle of Britain – Canadian Airmen in Their Finest Hour”. Ted is an award-winning journalist, author, and broadcaster. His writing has regularly appeared in the national press, and magazines as diverse as Air Force, esprit de corps and Zoomer. He has also worked as host/contributor for most CBC Radio network programs, NPR in the U.S. and on TV Ontario. He taught journalism at Toronto’s Centennial College for 18 years.
Last fall, just as Ted’s new book Battle of Britain: Canadians in Their Finest Hour became a national bestseller, he was invited to Rideau Hall in Ottawa for his investiture as a Member of the Order of Canada, “for advancing our understanding of Canadian military history as an acclaimed historical author, journalist and broadcaster.”
