Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

He is passionate about Canadian and American history, writing, research and comedy. He has always been interested in the history of rock music which has led him to write and act in satirical YouTube videos about metal music and being commissioned to write a script by the Grammy award winning band Ghost. He has previously written for the website BlogTO on several occasions. He hopes that his love for writing and research will lead him to a career in Law following obtaining his undergraduate degree in History. He would like to thank Professor Jennifer Bonnell for introducing him to this project, Stacy Allison-Cassin for developing it with him and the staff of the Clara Thomas Archives and Special Collections for their assistance.
