The purpose of the Roundtable is to use the recently published "Canada. Modern Architectures in History" as the foundation for discussing the palimpsest of Canadian architectural history, and more widely of future directions in its study together with of the modern movements in design. In particular the de- and re-generation of modernism, means to correct the ongoing side-lining of Canadian architectural production in the international literature and the future of its historiography.
