In 1999, historian John Goldi and producer Joan Goldi started the "Canadian Anglo-Boer War Project" to put Canadians "in Touch" with a previously unpublicized and largely unknown part of their country's heritage. Their multi-phase campaign included a television series "The Great Anglo-Boer War: The Canadian Experience," the web site "The Canadian Anglo-Boer War Museum," (one of the rare television projects honoured to become a "Canada Millennium Partnership Program" by the Government of Canada) and the "Belmont Project" featuring the "Fiset-O'Leary Centre,"Dedicated to "Keeping Canadians in Touch with Canada's Heritage" |
