The Ontario Chapter APG sponsors a variety of projects. Some projects have been day-long seminars or workshops geared not only to our membership, but to the wider genealogical community and/or the general public. We usually feature a table in the Expo Hall (exhibit and sales area) during the annual Conference of the Ontario Genealogical Society (OGS). We have held pre-conference days in conjunction with OGS, as well as stand-alone special events. After some of these events we have been able to make donations of relevant books or other materials to libraries or archives within Ontario. Ontario Chapter held a successful afternoon of Professional Business Skill workshops prior to the 2016 Ontario Genealogical Society Conference in Toronto, Ontario.

—-September 2021 Presentation Update—-
Dr. Wilkinson’s presentation on Genealogy and Law was a big hit with virtual attendees on Sept.1st. We had a great turnout with a mix of professional genealogists and family historians. Award-winning author of Genealogy and the Law in Canada, Dr. Margaret Ann Wilkinson was the Director of the Area of Concentration in Intellectual Property, Information and Technology Law at the Faculty of Law, University of Western Ontario. As an adjunct Professor in the Richard Ivey School of Business, she was involved in the Health Sector stream. Formerly a practicing lawyer in Toronto, she is also trained as a professional librarian. Didn’t make the date? A recording of this presentation will be available for OCAPG members after the presentation. Details soon.
