Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 SZ,^ /\Y S2y British Library of p;,i,i)Ca, and EcorH>:r.ir-Sen : i / ABSTRACT This thesis examines the significance of the Commonwealth in Canadian foreign policy, the motivations behind Canadian policy and the reasons for changes in this policy in the period 1956-1965 in particular. It does so by evaluating Canadian policy towards the development and use of Commonwealth institutions for cooperation. The thesis begins by sketching the development of Canadian policy towards the Commonwealth between 1944 and 1955. It argues that Canadian behaviour during this period set a pattern, which as it evolved in the face of changing conditions, was generally pursued through the period 1956 to 1965. The Commonwealth's role in Canadian policy was as a 'bridge' between the West and the new members from the developing world in support of Western interests in the Cold War. The thesis then looks at the year 1956. When the Suez Crisis occurred, the Commonwealth seemed poised for another transformation as members prepared to admit the first African member and considered British plans for closer economic links with Europe. The Canadian government's actions highlight its efforts to counteract division within the Commonwealth and preserve the 'bridge' to the developing world. The next three chapters review the record of John Diefenbaker's premiership. When he came to office in 1957, he proposed upgrading Canadian foreign policy towards the Commonwealth. Diefenbaker launched initiatives on trade and aid, and had to react to changing patterns of membership, a Commonwealth crisis over South Africa and the British application for EEC membership. Where the Diefenbaker government diverged from the established pattern of Canadian behaviour, its policies failed. For the most part, however, it maintained this pattern as the only practical way to effectively use the m odem 1 Commonwealth in ways conducive to the maintenance and advancement of Canadian interests. The last chapter examines the Canadian government's support for the Commonwealth secretariat. The thesis argues that this was not a substantial shift In Canadian policy, but rather a reflection of changes which had taken place within the Commonwealth and was largely consistent with previous policy. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Producing a doctoral thesis is frequently seen as a very lonely task. The truth is that although it is the work of one person, it has been produced with assistance of many - too many, in fact to mention them all. At the risk of offending some by mentioning a few, I would like to acknowledge my great debt to my supervisors, Dr. John Kent and Dr. Peter Lyon, who gave me the freedom to do what I wanted and the guidance to ensure that I wanted to do what I ought to do. Of all the libraries, archives and other institutions whose resources I made use of, it is unfair to single out just a few, but I owe particular thanks to the staff at the Public Archives of Canada in Ottawa and the Public Records Office in London. The staff at the Canadian Institute of International Affairs in Toronto are due special thanks for continuing to treat me as one of them and sparing no effort to help me along the way. Finally, I want to thank my families, in Canada and in Italy, for their support and assistance. Above all, I want to thank Paola, without whose love and support I would still be sitting at Kew, and to whom this thesis is dedicated. 3 TABLE OF CONTENTS LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS 6 PREFACE 8 CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION 11 The Making of Canadian Foreign Policy 15 CHAPTER 2 s CANADIAN APPROACHES TO THE COMMONWEALTH 1944 - 1956 25 The Halifax Imbroglio 28 Towards the Post-War Commonwealth 31 The New Commonwealth 38 Using the New Commonwealth 44 Patterns of Commonwealth Institutional Relationships 51 The Early 1950s: A More Accommodative Canada 58 CHAPTER 3: 1956 75 Building towards the Future: Next Phase of the Commonwealth - Africa 77 Building towards the Future in the Caribbean 83 The Commonwealth and Keeping Britain Great: 1956 88 Testing the Commonwealth: The Suez Crisis 99 The Aftermath of Suez 118 CHAPTER 4: THE DIEFENBAKER REVOLUTION COMES TO THE COMMONWEALTH 129 Mr. Diefenbaker Goes to London: The 1957 CPMM 132 Commonwealth Trade: Canada-Britain Trade Initiatives 138 The Road to the Commonwealth Trade and Economic Conference: Getting Agreement 147 The Anglo-Canadian Effort to Make the Conference Work 153 (i) Trade Initiatives 155 (ii) Institutions for Cooperation and Consultation 159 (iii) Development Assistance Initiatives 165 The Commonwealth Trade and Economic Conference and its Results 172 CHAPTER 5: THE WINDS OF CHANGE: THE COMING OF THE THIRD COMMONWEALTH 193 Determining The Nature of the Third Commonwealth: Membership and Structure 194 South African Membership: Round I - 1960 213 The Winds Undiverted: African Assistance 222 South African Membership: Round II - 1961 226 Settling Down with the Third Commonwealth 237 CHAPTER 6 - THE NORTH WIND OF CHANGE: BRITAIN AND EUROPE 244 Finding a Solution to Europe: First the EFTA 245 The Commonwealth and Europe in a Global British Policy 255 Canada: Coming to Terms With Britain and the EEC 263 The Denouement: The 1962 CPMM 279 4 CHAPTER 7 - NEW INSTITUTIONS FOR A NEW COMMONWEALTH 289 British Proposals* 1964 - Staying at the Centre of the Commonwealth 289 Canadian Preparations for the 1964 Meeting 294 The 1964 Secretariat Proposal 299 Canadian Policy Towards a Secretariat 302 Overcoming the Last Obstacles 308 British Proposals 1965: Labour's Programme 314 Other Proposals 319 The 1965 CPMM: Outcomes 328 CHAPTER 8: CONCLUSION 336 APPENDIX: PATTERNS IN CANADIAN TRADE 354 SELECT BIBLIOGRAPHIC STUDY CANADA AND THE COMMONWEALTH: 1956-1965 359 SOURCE MATERIAL - UNPUBLISHED 371 Archival Sources and Special Collections 371 SOURCE MATERIAL - PUBLISHED 372 Department of External AffairsStatements and Speeches 372 British Command Papers 374 Miscellaneous Official Publications 375 Collections of Documents 376 Published Memoirs and Diaries 377 Published Speeches 378 Articles and Conference Papers 379 Theses, Books and Monographs 386 5 LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS AND ACRONYMS AUBC...................

Tandis que le choix de non-alignement de la part de l’Inde engendra des tensions géopolitiques complexes à l’origine de barrières entre ces deux pays durant la Guerre Froide, l’intensification de la mondialisation au XXIème siècle les a conduits à envisager de nouveaux partenariats stratégiques. Cet article met l’accent sur la nécessité d’améliorer la compréhension mutuelle, afin d’éviter de compromettre les efforts considérables qui ont été faits ces dix dernières années pour développer le commerce bilatéral.

    H. H. F. Binhammer CANADA'S MONEY MUDDLE IN RETROSPECT QUESTIONS CONCERNING THE CONTROL OF MONEY are as old as the use of money as a measure and store of value and a medium of exchange. Relevant to developments in the post~war period in Canada is the controversy of the mid-nineteenth century between the so-called Banking School and the Currency School. The Banking School maintained that control over the supply of money should be left in the hands of private commercial banks. The Currency School, on the other hand, among other things, maintained that control over the money supply should be vested directly or indirectly in the hands of government. Settlement in favour of the Currency School led to the establishment of central banks, mainly under the sponsorship of govern­ ments. These banks were to provide an umbrella over the private commercial banks. In Canada, interference with the money supply by a central authority started with the Finance Act of 1914. This was followed by the establishment of the Bank of Canada in 1935, first with limited government participation and later with com~ plete government control. The degree to which the central bank should assert its influence over the economy and in particular over the private commercial banks was not questioned until the fifties. During the thirties, the war, and the immediate post-war period, the central bank, on the whole, accommodated the activities of the chartered banks without question. That is to say, the central bank, in a more or less routine fashion, assisted the chartered banks to meet the demands of business.

  • A Tribute to the Honourable R. Gordon Robertson, P.C., C.C., LL.D., F.R.S.C., D.C.L
    A Tribute to The Honourable R. Gordon Robertson, P.C., C.C., LL.D., F.R.S.C., D.C.L. By Thomas d’Aquino MacKay United Church Ottawa January 21, 2013 Reverend Doctor Montgomery; members of the Robertson family; Joan - Gordon’s dear companion; Your Excellency; Madam Chief Justice; friends, I am honoured – and humbled – to stand before you today, at Gordon’s request, to pay tribute to him and to celebrate with you his remarkable life. He wished this occasion to be one, not of sadness, but of celebration of a long life, well lived, a life marked by devotion to family and to country. Gordon Robertson – a good, fair, principled, and ever so courteous man - was a modest person. But we here today know that he was a giant. Indeed, he has been described as his generation’s most distinguished public servant – and what a generation that was! Gordon was proud of his Saskatchewan roots. Born in 1917 in Davidson – a town of 300 “on the baldest prairie”, in Gordon’s words, he thrived under the affection of his Norwegian-American mother and grandparents. He met his father – of Scottish ancestry - for the first time at the age of two, when he returned home after convalescing from serious wounds suffered at the epic Canadian victory at Vimy Ridge. He was, by Gordon’s account, a stern disciplinarian who demanded much of his son in his studies, in pursuit of manly sports, and in his comportment. Gordon did not disappoint. He worked his way through drought- and depression-torn Saskatchewan, attended Regina College and the University of Saskatchewan, and in 1938 was on his way to Oxford University, a fresh young Rhodes Scholar.

KELAPILE Student Country: UNITED STATES OF AMERICA Course Code or Name: DIP‐401 Professor / Assigned Tutor: ROBERTO RODRIGUEZ Note: This paper uses US English (with punctuation and rule of style). NEGOTIATION: THE MOST IMPORTANT FUNCTION OF DIPLOMACY 1) INTRODUCTION Geoff R. Berridge observes that negotiation is one of the functions of diplomacy and correctly identifies the other diplomatic duties, including gathering of information, clarifying intentions and promotion of goodwill. He nonetheless asserts that negotiation is “the most important function of diplomacy”1 if the latter is conceived in a broader sense. Jean‐Robert Leguey‐Feilleux, on the other hand, sees 1 G.R. Berridge, Diplomacy: Theory and Practice, 3rd ed. New York: Palgrave, 2005, pp. 27, 214 -215. Collen V. Kelapile DIP‐401 2 negotiation as one among several functions of diplomacy. He said: “Diplomacy serves a large variety of functions, and negotiation, albeit important, is only one of them.”2 A premise in this argument is that, in today’s international relations, negotiation takes place more often than the other functions. While the trend has declined in bilateral relations, it is much dominant in multilateral diplomacy. Though at times ceremonial and symbolic, summit level interactions are equally frequent. Mediation is also undertaken as “a special kind of negotiation designed to promote the settlement of a conflict.”3 My diplomatic experience informs me that the importance of negotiation is not exaggerated. As discussed below, evidence suggests that disputes and conflicts permeate every sphere of our existence. Diplomacy is of constant resort and negotiation is pervasively utilized.
