To the Rt. Hon, ERNEST LAPOINTE, P.O., M.P., Minister of Justice, (Minister in Control of the R.C.M. Police), Ottawa. have the honour to submit my report on the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for the year ended March 31, 1937. The form of the report is the same as that 'submitted for several years past, and as usual un appendix lias been added ,containing items of interest from the reports of Offieers Commanding the respective divisions, and also from Officers on the Headquarters Staff, which could not very well be embodied in the report itself, but which are considered to merit publication. SECTION 1 GENERAL REVIEW 1. Amendments to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act By Bill No. 83 submitted to Parliament, which was in session at the end of the annual report year, several minor amendments and one major amendment , have been recommended. The minor amendments deal with definitions as to " rank " and " pay " for - pension purposes, the inclusion of time served in the permanent forces of Canada- for pension under the Police Act, and an amendment to section 83 (Part IV)' pensions for dependents of "Constables." dealing with The major amendment repeals the .existing section 28 of the Act relating- to the " Royal Canadian IVIounted Police Reserve," which was inserted in the year 1919, and which lias never been acted upon, and substitute,s an entirely new section. The old section is considered to be totally inadequate as it confines the personnel of the Reserve to such officers and men who have already served in the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. The new section provides for the training of suitable young men annually in order that they may later become members of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Force, if they so desire. It is hoped to form a reserve of approximately 300 men, and to train them for a period not exceeding three months in any one year. I am again pleased to report that the benefits provided by Part IV of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police Act continue to be satisfactory. The first valuation of the assets and liabilities of this Dependents Pension Fund as at March 31, 1939, will be required under the statute when that time arrives, and every five years thereafter.

Given the tangible threat that Teixeira posed to the public, and the complexity of this fugitive investigation, IHIT and CFSEU-BC partnered with the Bolo Program, a Canadian public safety initiative encouraging citizens to be on the lookout for Canada’s most wanted suspects. In close cooperation with IHIT and CFSEU-BC investigators, the Bolo Program conducted an amplification campaign of the Teixeira wanted notice which generated millions of media, billboard and Facebook impressions, as well as over 100 tips. In cooperation with Metro Vancouver Crime Stoppers, the Bolo Program also offered a reward up to CAD $50,000 for any information leading to the arrest of the suspect.

DUTTON AND COMPANY LONDON : ARTHUR L. HUMPHREYS 1919 SECOND EDITION REVISED AND ENLARGED PREFACE The first edition of A St. Helena Whos Wlio was limited to one hundred and fifty copies, for it was felt that the book could appeal only to those who were students of the period of Napoleon's captivity in St. Helena. The author soon found, however, that the edition was insuffi- cient to meet the demand, and he was obliged, with regret, to inform many who desired to possess the book that the issue was exhausted. In the present edition the original form in which the work appeared has been retained, but fresh material has been included, and many corrections have been made which, it is hoped, will render the book more useful. vu CONTENTS PAQI Introduction ....... 1 The Island or St. Helena and its Administration . 7 Military ....... 8 Naval ....... 9 Civil ....... 10 The Population of St. Helena in 1820 . .15 The Expenses of Administration in St. Helena in 1817 15 The Residents at Longwood . .16 Topography— Principal Residences . .19 The Regiments in St. Helena . .22 The 53rd Foot Regiment (2nd Battalion) . 22 The 66th Foot Regiment (2nd Battalion) . 26 The 66th Foot Regiment (1st Battalion) . 29 The 20th Foot Regiment .

  • 29 Newgate and Westminster 1820
    678 December 14th 1819-December 31st 1820: Newgate, Cato Street, and the Trial of Queen Caroline 1820: Newgate Diary, the 1820 Westminster Election, Byron’s ballad My Boy Hobby, O, the execution of the Cato Street Conspirators, and the Trial of Queen Caroline December 14th 1819-December 31st 1820 Edited from B.L.Add.Mss. 56540 and 56541. In the notes, “I.G.” indicates assistance from Ian Gilmour, to whom I’m grateful. In 1819 Hobhouse contested the parliamentary seat of Westminster, which had become vacant on the suicide of Romilly. He stood as a radical, supported by his father and by Burdett, but was defeated on March 3rd by George Lamb. Riots followed, and a breach opened between him and the Holland House Whigs. Westminster was an unusual constituency. It extended from Temple Bar to Hyde Park, from Oxford Street to the Thames, and three-quarters of its voters were middle-class: shopkeepers, skilled artisans, printers, tailors, and so on. It was the only constituency in the country in which each of its 17,000 rate-paying householders had the vote, which fact made it a headache to any administration, Whig or Tory, which was based upon, and served, as all administrations were and did, the landed gentry. At Westminster, candidates had to stand on the hustings and speak deferentially to people whom they’d normally expect to speak deferentially to them . At this time Hobhouse wrote several pamphlets, and an anonymous reply to a sarcastic speech of Canning’s, written by him and some of his friends in the Rota Club, attracted attention.

  • A THREAT to LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King
    S. Peter Regenstreif A THREAT TO LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King BY Now mE STORY of the Progressive revolt and its impact on the Canadian national party system during the 1920's is well documented and known. Various studies, from the pioneering effort of W. L. Morton1 over a decade ago to the second volume of the Mackenzie King official biography2 which has recently appeared, have dealt intensively with the social and economic bases of the movement, the attitudes of its leaders to the institutions and practices of national politics, and the behaviour of its representatives once they arrived in Ottawa. Particularly in biographical analyses, 3 a great deal of attention has also been given to the response of the established leaders and parties to this disrupting influence. It is clearly accepted that the roots of the subsequent multi-party situation in Canada can be traced directly to a specific strain of thought and action underlying the Progressivism of that era. At another level, however, the abatement of the Pro~ gressive tide and the manner of its dispersal by the end of the twenties form the basis for an important piece of Canadian political lore: it is the conventional wisdom that, in his masterful handling of the Progressives, Mackenzie King knew exactly where he was going and that, at all times, matters were under his complete control, much as if the other actors in the play were mere marionettes with King the manipu­ lator. His official biographers have demonstrated just how illusory this conception is and there is little to be added to their efforts on this score.

  • Crime and Networks Edited by Carlo Morselli
    Crime and Networks Edited by Carlo Morselli CONTENTS Preface Introduction Carlo Morselli PART I: CO-OFFENDING NETWORKS Chapter 1: The Importance of Studying Co-offending Networks for Criminological Theory and Policy Jean Marie McGloin and Holly Nguyen Though the group nature of much crime and delinquency has been well documented for decades, there is relatively scant research on co-offending networks. This chapter argues that attending to the ways in which co-offending networks shape and affect criminal behavior, as well as how individual and situational attributes shape the tendency to join such networks and adopt certain roles within them, has broad and important implications for criminology and criminal justice. Chapter 2: Sex and Age Homophily in Co-offending Networks: Opportunity or Preference? Sarah B. van Mastrigt and Peter J. Carrington Homophily, the tendency for individuals to associate with similar others, has been demonstrated across a wide range of social relational forms, including co-offending. One of the most widely cited ‘facts’ about group crime is that it is typically carried out in homogeneous groups, particularly with respect to age and sex. The findings in this chapter provide evidence for inbreeding homophily and indicate that the bias for offending with similar others is most pronounced amongst males and youths in co-offending networks. Chapter 3: The Evolution of a Drug Co-arrest Network Natalia Iwanski and Richard Frank i This chapter analyzes the evolution of a co-arrest network of drug offenders to examine how groups of offenders change over time. Using five years of real crime data, a social network is created with offenders who were arrested by police for drug-related crimes and analyzed over monthly time intervals to understand its growth.

  • The Roots of French Canadian Nationalism and the Quebec Separatist Movement
    Copyright 2013, The Concord Review, Inc., all rights reserved THE ROOTS OF FRENCH CANADIAN NATIONALISM AND THE QUEBEC SEPARATIST MOVEMENT Iris Robbins-Larrivee Abstract Since Canada’s colonial era, relations between its Fran- cophones and its Anglophones have often been fraught with high tension. This tension has for the most part arisen from French discontent with what some deem a history of religious, social, and economic subjugation by the English Canadian majority. At the time of Confederation (1867), the French and the English were of almost-equal population; however, due to English dominance within the political and economic spheres, many settlers were as- similated into the English culture. Over time, the Francophones became isolated in the province of Quebec, creating a densely French mass in the midst of a burgeoning English society—this led to a Francophone passion for a distinct identity and unrelent- ing resistance to English assimilation. The path to separatism was a direct and intuitive one; it allowed French Canadians to assert their cultural identities and divergences from the ways of the Eng- lish majority. A deeper split between French and English values was visible before the country’s industrialization: agriculture, Ca- Iris Robbins-Larrivee is a Senior at the King George Secondary School in Vancouver, British Columbia, where she wrote this as an independent study for Mr. Bruce Russell in the 2012/2013 academic year. 2 Iris Robbins-Larrivee tholicism, and larger families were marked differences in French communities, which emphasized tradition and antimaterialism. These values were at odds with the more individualist, capitalist leanings of English Canada.

Deshaies Dissertation Advisor: Dr. Scott See and Dr. Jacques Ferland An Abstract of the Thesis Presented In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (in History) December 2019 The Cooperative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) was one of the most influential political parties in Canadian history. Without doubt, from a social welfare perspective, the CCF helped build and develop an extensive social welfare system across Canada. It has been justly credited with being one of the major influences over Canadian social welfare policy during the critical years following the Great Depression. This was especially true of the period of the Second World War when the federal Liberal government of Mackenzie King adroitly borrowed CCF policy planks to remove the harsh edges of capitalism and put Canada on the path to a modern Welfare State.
