Acknowledgements
We would like to thank Mr. Myron Groover, Librarian at the McMaster University’s Archives and Rare Books, and Mr. Michael Moir, Archivist at the Clara Thomas Archives and Special Collections at York University, and Mr. David Sharron, Archivist at the Brock University Archives and Special Collections who provided multimedia content, advice and student guidance for our PortCities Hamilton, Toronto and Niagara projects. Special thanks also to Sharon Janzen, Associate at the Brock University Map, Data, and GIS Library, for her guidance.
The public history objectives for the Hamilton (2021-2022), Toronto (2022-2023), and Niagara (2023-2024) projects would not have been possible without support from the Humanities Research Institute at Brock University, who provided funding to hire research assistants and to develop and maintain the PortCities website.
