The Army Cadet League of Canada (Ontario) Up Close and Personal Speaker Series is a fantastic initiative for fostering connections between the organization and the broader community.
Malcolm G. Kelly was a professional journalist for 37 years. He is the founder and coordinator of a renowned post-graduate sports journalism program at Centennial College in Toronto. Malcolm is a former writer and/or editor at the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation’s online sports department, the National Post, Ottawa Citizen, Southam News, Thomson News, Town Crier Newspapers, and the Canadian Press. A bestselling author, he has written four non-fiction books. Malcolm was born in Bradford-on-Avon, England, and raised in Warminster, Wilts, before the family moved to Canada in 1966. He is the son of two Second World War veterans (his father was one of the famous 47 British escapees at Calais in 1940, and his mother was a Blitz survivor who joined the army’s ATS). Kelly has been deeply involved in the study of the human face of that conflict and how those caught up in it handled the stress, day-to-day life, and constant fear of death and injury, since first reading Cornelius Ryan’s The Longest Day at nine years old. He lives in Toronto, Canada, with his wife, Barbara, son Patrick, and Grace the dachshund.
These events are limited to a maximum of 50 participants and will be held at the Lorne Scots Museum in Brampton, Ontario.
Your registration fee grants you entry into the Museum, 2 hours with the speaker and a Charitable Tax Receipt for supporting the Army Cadet League of Canada (ON)
