CHRISTOPHER DUMMITT

Christopher Dummitt is a professor of Canadian history at Trent University, a columnist at The National Post, host of the Canadian history podcast 1867 & All That, and a Senior Fellow at the Macdonald Laurier Institute 

​

I specialize in Canada's political, cultural and intellectual history and have a growing side-interest in research methods and issues of academic freedom. My books have focused on the history of Canada's most successful prime minister, the social and legal history of morality, the writing of Canadian history and the history of masculinity.

​

In addition to my columns at The National Post I am a regular contributor to The Hub and The Literary Review of Canada and have also published on history, politics, culture and current affairs in places like Quillette, The Globe and Mail, The Dorchester Review, The Ottawa Citizen and The Toronto Star.
