Journey of century-old chair carved by WW I Quebec prisoner ends at war museum
Very few archival items exist from Canada's First World War internment camps. But now, the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa is adding a hand-carved wooden chair to its collection thanks to a B.C. woman who got curious about its origins and reached out to CBC Montreal for help last year.

Im Museum Stríðsárasafnið in Reyðarfjörður wird Islands besondere Rolle im Zweiten Weltkrieg erläutert, der hier häufig als ‚blessed war‘ bezeichnet wurde. Die Ausstellung zeigt, wie das strategisch wichtige Island von britischen und amerikanischen Truppen besetzt wurde, welche die wirtschaftliche Entwicklung und den Ausbau der Infrastruktur nachhaltig beeinflussten. Die Abgeschiedenheit von den Kriegsfronten bot der Insel relative Sicherheit, die langfristig zum wirtschaftlichen Aufschwung Islands beitrug.

I have just learnt that fellow Architect #RaymondMoriyama passed away yesterday. This for me is heartbreaking as he was a wonderful man, a visionary in Canadian Architecture and a co founder of #MoriyamaTeshima an architectural firm I had the pleasure of completing my mandatory hours with. Mr Moriyama was a mentor to me. He was the vision behind places like #OntarioScienceCentre and in Ottawa the #IsmailiImamatBuilding along with #WarMuseum.

He was definitely Canada's most important Architect.
