The Orange & The Green
Separating Fact From Fiction
Presented by Ken Weber
November 23 2026 at 7:30 pm

There was a time early in the twentieth century when there were more Orangemen in Canada than anywhere else in the world (including Ireland).  And no county was more “Orange” than Peel, where the Orange Order once influenced every corner of politics and daily life and the Catholics, “the Green”, had to keep a low profile. The Order today is but a pale shadow of its former self, but it has left behind a legacy of stories about tension, conflict and even violence. Ken’s presentation tries to work out just how many of them are true.
