Despite the death of mentor Tom Thomson in 1917, these painters banded together as the Group of Seven in 1920 to forge a new Canadian expression. There has been a debate about the mysterious death of Tom Thomson. An Ontario judge believes foul play may be behind the href="http://archives.cbc.ca/IDC-1-68-754-4631/arts_entertainment/group_of_seven/clip7">Mysterious Death of Tom Thomson</A> of Group associate Tom Thomson.
It might be an idea to condense the information on the interactive biography, described under "recent developments" or to give its own article. It comes across as a plug/ somewhat non-objective. I have not touched it myself--will allow others to decide. (December 2005)
PS: After I made some revisions and edits, a vandal came on and threw in some ugly comments. Keep a lookout for strange stuff happening to this article.

[edit] Removed Comments
Removed a couple of comments meant to be amusing, though not half as funny as the writer thought they were being.
[edit] Death
The plethora of theories regarding Thomson's death (suicide, murder over money or jealousy, possible marriage and pregnancy of Trainor) might be worth mentioning, not because they are especially credible, but because by now they have become so much a part of Thomson lore. To have any kind of weight here, though, they need to be cited and sourced. JNW 02:07, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.

[edit] Online investigation
I failed to get the URL of the website, but CBC News had noted the establishment of a website for an online colobration to try and solve his mysterious death. --HJKeats (talk) 02:05, 3 April 2008 (UTC)
