A series of disputes between Canadian historians in the 1980s and 1990s that focused on the legacy of Canadian residential schools and the role of social history became known as the history wars.[1][2][3][4] Historian Adam Chipnick describes 1998's Who Killed Canadian History? by J. L. Granatstein as "the pinnacle" of these disputes.[5]
