Decades after the death of John Strachan???

This is what we currently have in the article: "The idea of federation initially met strong opposition at Victoria University, a Methodist school in Cobourg, but a financial incentive in 1890 convinced the school to join. Decades after the death of John Strachan, the Anglican seminary Trinity College entered federation in 1904, followed in 1910 by St. Michael's College, a Roman Catholic college founded by the Basilian Fathers." Who is this person? When was his death? Why is the length of time after his death significant? Are these pieces of info being sufficiently explained? Should this type of "sudden" presentation of information be avoided in Wikipedia articles? Ordinarius Beau 12:17, 15 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

There is a grammar mistake, it says "University planNed" instead of "University planned." The capital N must become lowercase. This is in the demographics section. Azariakelman (talk) 02:56, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
