In this episode, Allan speaks with Joanne Archibald, Executive Director of the Canadian Business History Association, about the role of business history in shaping Canada’s past. The discussion begins with a business and logistical perspective on the Battle of Vimy Ridge, highlighting the contribution of Canadian industry and railways to the war effort. Archibald then outlines how business history connects with political, military, and social history, and why it remains an important but often overlooked field of study. The conversation also explores how business records are preserved, the challenges facing archives, and the importance of collaboration between historians and the business community. Drawing on her work with Livy Consulting, Archibald discusses how organizations can use their history to better understand and communicate their identity.
