We never know the depth or width of the roots of an old tree, until we start digging.
For Canada, those Christian roots go as deep as the early years of exploration and discovery. They extend to the Reformation in Europe. They spread further by colonization through both Britain and France. They continued to spread with the establishment of The Fur Trade, and other economic activities, and eventually gave birth to the Dominion of Canada.
Join us on an exciting journey of exploration and discovery. Read our blogs which give insights to the chronological development of our Dominion.

About The Authors
Lynette and Tim Bloedow are Canadians. Tim worked ‘on the Hill’ for more than a decade. Lynette taught Canadian History to Homeschoolers and arranged their Parliament Hill Tours from 2010 to 2015.
In 2018, Tim graduated from the Reformed Presbyterian Theological Seminary with his M Div., after three years of study. He is waiting for a call to be a pastor in our denomination.
Lynette is continuing her research and development of a curriculum which examines Canadian History from a Christian perspective. She does the research and writing, while Tim edits, advises and encourages.
Our mission is to Educate, Equip and Empower Christian Canadians with the knowledge of our Christians roots, and its significance in the founding and development of the country.
We hope that this generation will tell the next generation about their forebears who laid a solid Christian foundation for the Canada they know and love today.
