Connections-North at the Canadian War Museum
June 9, 2023 4 Comments
Connections-North 2023 was a one-day event on June 9 at the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa.
Rex Brynen’s account of the conference, and links to the presentation material are here on his blog Paxsims: https://paxsims.wordpress.com/2023/06/23/connections-north-2023-report/
I could not attend, but did send them a brief video.
It coincided with the opening of Museum’s new exhibit on war games. I don’t know what the exhibits include other than a Go set, a British Kriegspiel set from the 1880s, Yuna Wong’s Hedgemoney and a copy of Rex Brynen’s HADR game Aftershock.
Oh, and this old thing….
The exhibit runs to the end of the year.
Brian, I will be up in Ottawa in a couple of weeks on a family vacation, and hope to coax my family (aka my wife) into going to see the exhibit.
I hope you have a look!
Website says tickets are $18 but those are Canadian $ so you could probably trade your way in for a Hershey bar and a couple of smokes.
I won’t need any smokes at this point; nature is providing it for free! If it weren’t for the great exchange rate, I would be vacationing on my back porch this year.
