Permenant Exhibit At the Grange The Mississauga Heritage Foundation presents an historical exhibit in the Debbie Hatch Discovery Centre at “The Grange” and a special presentation by John Warburton of the Toronto Branch of the United Empire Loyalists of Canada. The exhibit features artefacts from: The Province of Ontario was created as a haven for United Empire Loyalists fleeing from the Revolutionary War in the United States. Ontario’s motto is: “Ut incepit Fidelis sic permanent”, or “Loyal She Began, Loyal She Remains.” But who were the Loyalists? And what impact did their arrival have in the historical annals of the place we call home today? Many of our earliest settlers, those that helped to carve our modern city from the pioneer landscape, were Loyalists. We invite you visit the exhibit and come to the special presentation by John Warburton to learn more about these ordinary men and women who helped to lay the foundation of the city, the province and the nation we live in today. “From Powderhorn to Plow” is the third of four
planned exhibits for 2005 in Heritage In connection with the exhibit, Heritage Mississauga presents
a special presentation by John Warburton on Wednesday, October 12, 2005,
7:00pm at “The Grange”. Tickets are $5. For media information and photo opportunities, please contact Matthew Wilkinson, Historian, Mississauga Heritage Foundation: 905-828-8411 x29
