Barry MacKenzie received his PhD at the University of New Brunswick and is a part-time instructor in the Department of History. His doctoral project focused on identity and commemoration as they relate to royal tours to New Brunswick in the 20th century, but his research interests are broad, and include the history of immigration and the history of the Maritime Provinces. He is currently working on a book manuscript for the Gregg Centre for the Study of War and Society. Professor MacKenzie came to St FX in 2016, and his 2018-2019 offering in Catholic Studies was Souls, Sins, and Sorrows: Catholicism in Canada, a history of the Catholic Church in Canada.
