Electric City, Nikola Tesla in Canada
World Premiere of the documentary film “Electric City, Nikola Tesla in Canada” about the arrival of hydroelectricity to Hamilton & Ontario.
The documentary film tells the story of the arrival of hydroelectricity to Hamilton, Ontario and how it expanded to other municipalities via the Hydro Electric Power Commission of Ontario. The arrival of inexpensive power redefined the city, the province of Ontario and even Canada. That is the most important development in Canadian history at the turn of the 20th century. Discover how that technology is still used today, over a century and quarter later, to produce hydroelectric power.
Before the power even arrived in Buffalo, over a distance of 17 miles, Nikola Tesla was consulted on the plan to transmit power over 35 miles to Hamilton, the first major city to have hydroelectric power in all of Canada. That triggered the 2nd industrial revolution and redefined the city, in terms of industrial growth and transformation into a multicultural society.
The film documents both early years of hydro power in Canada and Nikola Tesla's contribution to the changes in the society.
The event will feature the appearance of the key participants in the film along with an exhibit of various elements and props featured in the film. The film participants will address the guests and be available for Q&A.
Experience the Tesla Coil, Plasma Globe, Egg of Columbus, and experience wireless transmission of power as fluorescent tubes magically shine light in your hand without being connected to the source of electricity.
Exhibitors will be on hand to showcase wellness devices related to Tesla’s inventions. Guests will also be able to try them out and discover how those devices are impacting our wellbeing.
This event is for all ages. Bring the children and youth with you. They will love it and get inspired.
The location does have stairs, which could pose a challenge for those with restricted mobility.
