Catastrophes
Dans son histoire, le Canada a connu des catastrophes d’origine naturelle et des catastrophes causées par les hommes. Un événement comme l’explosion de Halifax fait partie des accidents rares et tragiques désormais gravés dans l’histoire du pays. D’autres événements, d’origine naturelle, comme les feux de forêt et les avalanches, se reproduisent chaque année et peuvent, à l’occasion, causer de terribles ravages. Cette collection rassemble des articles de synthèse sur différents types de catastrophes et d’autres décrivant certains événements singuliers de ce type ayant marqué notre histoire.
