Celebrate the 800th anniversary of the Magna Carta on Thursday, 15 October 6-8pm

Join the Oxford and Cambridge Society of Toronto on a visit to see the Magna Carta at Fort York National Historic Site followed by a scholarly discussion about its importance to us today.

The Magna Carta and its companion document, the Charter of the Forest, set the groundwork for many concepts that continue to define democratic life today. As symbols of justice, they also act as powerful reminders that those who govern do so only by the consent of the people.

After a tour of the bilingual exhibition we will have an opportunity to hear from two experts on the historical impact of the Magna Carta. We have a room reserved at the Fort for this discussion from 7 till 8pm.

We only have a limited number of tickets available for this event so please book early to avoid disappointment.
