The Canadian Historical Review (CHR) is a scholarly journal in Canada,[1] founded in 1920 and published by the University of Toronto Press.

The CHR has two major objectives: "to promote high standards of research and writing in Canada … and to foster the study of Canadian history.

[2][7] The initiative to digitize the CHR's holdings includes material from this previous journal, and papers from as early as 1897 are available to subscribers online as a result.
