MANITOBA TEACHERS TURNS 100

The history of The Manitoba Teacher, the magazine of the Manitoba Teachers' Society (MTS) is detailed. When the founders of MTS got together almost 100 years ago, they looked at ways to bring members of the union together and to keep them informed. One of their first decisions was to launch a magazine called The Bulletin. The magazine, shortly after renamed The Manitoba Teacher, has become one of the oldest publications in the province and a regular arrival for generations of teachers. MTS has produced a number of publications over the years, but The Teacher is the only one that has withstood the impact of wars and politics and funding crises. Except for a brief suspension because of a lack of funds during the Depression, it has consistently published for almost a century.
