About this Event

Militaria - the dangers and future of home-based military artifact collections
Synopsis:

You just found a live hand grenade while clean out Grandpa’s basement. What do you do?

Your father has died and left you a WWII German lugar; does this mean under Canadian law have I become a criminal? What do I do with it?

As estates are sorted and artifacts discovered, a treasure of Canadian history is hitting the market, and some of it is dangerous and illegal, and some of it needs a place to call home.

Join the EUSI as we flag the dangers and advance solutions for saving our military history.

Legal private collections will be on display. Lunch provided at no cost.
