Hand-built bicycle tells a historical story of a colourful, Ontario teen

Camas Clowater-Eriksson

The Billings Estate National Historic Site is currently displaying a curious wooden bicycle. It was hand built in the late 1890s by a teenager named James Henry Blair, using materials scavenged off his father’s Gloucester farm. Artifacts at the Canada Science and Technology Museum give us a rare chance to explore the mindset of this young inventor as he puzzled through the process of how to build a bicycle with limited resources.

The Prime Minister's Science Fair

Making youth a key part of Canada’s innovation ecosystem

Ingenium - Canada's Museums of Science and Innovation

This fall, I had the honour of participating in a wide range of events that showcased the innovative potential of Canadian youth. From the Little Inventors: Inventions for Space Canada-wide competition (run by Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada and the Canadian Space Agency) to the Prime Minister's Science Fair to the official launch of the University of Ottawa's Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) complex, I have seen first-hand the unlimited potential of

Researchers offer up an "a-peeling" solution to plastic wrap

Canada Agriculture and Food Museum

Did you know that Canada processes a whopping 2.86 million tonnes of potatoes a year — into things like frozen French fries, instant mashed potatoes and chips? Unfortunately, all of that processing translates into a lot of potato waste. But recently — at the University of Alberta — a team of innovative researchers found a way to put these potato processing leftovers to good use...by transforming then into a biodegradable plastic!
