Box 241, Postal Station P, Toronto, Ontario, M5S 2S8 Second Class mail registration number 7009 Return Postage Guaranteed The Toronto Hi~torica1 Board is pleased to announce the imp1emenation of an exciting archaeological prograJlJllJeat Historic Fort York. Fort York is one of the few relatively undisturbed late 18th/early 19th century sites in Toronto. As such, it provides an outstanding opportunity to study the archaeolo9ical heritage of Toronto's early history. - to increase our understanding of the daily life of the people who lived at Fort York in the early 19th century; - to provide information to help restore the Fort's buildings more accurately; - to assess the archaeological potential of the western half of the Fort; and - to give the public an opportunity to view an archaeological excava- tion and understand the methods and uses of archaeological work. Excavations are taking place in the cellar of the 1815 officers' mess. This area includes Toronto's oldest surviving kitchen, a wine cellar, and a vault constructed during the Rebellion of 1837 to store government and Bank of upper Canada funds. Afterwards, work will move outside. One area :that may prove to be particularly exciting is the site of the Lieutenant-Governor's residence, destroyed in the 1813 Battle of York. Throughout the excavation period, visitors to Fort York will be able to see the work and talk with the archaeological crew. After excavations are com- pleted in October, an exhibit will be opened explaining the findings of this year's excavations. Several things have been keeping the Executive busy since I last spoke to you on this page. The first of these is the Pas,sport to the Past program. Most of the organizing and nearly all of the related documents are now in hand. Soci- ety members will be receiving with this issue of ARCH NOTES our promotional bro- chure describing this new archaeological participation program. Opportunities are being made available for members to volunteer on projects across northern and southern Ontario. What better way to explore your province than by partici- pating on a dig or survey in a region you have never visited? Plans are under- way to arrange for archaeological opportunities in the adjacent U.S.A. Those wishing to participate should contact our Administrator, Charles Garrad, and request a registration kit. Your kit will include a personal Information Form (which will create input for the computerized data base), Liability Waiver forms and an ApplicattGlJ1..Form.(invoice) for membership in Passport to the Past. Upon receipt of the completed forms and fees ($5.00 for enrollment and admini- strative fees and $5.00 for the Passport), the Society will forward to you your Passport with personal registration number, the toll-free information line num- ber and an initial list of archaeological projects offering volunteer opportuni- ti es. Other news ... we have recei ved our computer and it is being set up and grappled with even as you read this. Lots of homework for us techno-peasants is in store ...We have been overwhelmed by the positive response from the membership regarding our proposed Belize trip in April 1988. The itinerary is bein9 re- vised taking into account suggestions made by those who indicated an interest in going on the trip. By now many of you will have received the Ministry of Citizenship & Culture's Ontario Heritage Policy Review Discussion Paper Giving Our Past A Future_ This document is part of an ongoing public consultation process which the Ministry has undertaken as part of its comprehensive review. If you have not read it yet I urge you to do so and to also appear at the public meeting scheduled for your area; a 1ist of these meetings and venues is included in the document. I shall be delivering a brief at the Toronto meeting on May 20 representing the whole of the Society. However, each and everyone of you is enti~ed to and urged to attend and to speak to the topics which are of the greatest interest to you. The word "archaeology" can not be over-emphasized at these meetings. Those conducting this Review ought to be reminded that archaeology has a vital role to play in the understanding of our collective heritage and in contributing to the quality of life in this province. The matter of the selection of an editor for Ontario Archaeology has been a con- cern and we are now pleased to announce the appolntment of Dr. Peter Reid of the University of Windsor as our new Editor. ARCH NOTES is published with the assistance of the Ontario Government through the Ministry of Citizenship and Culture The Ontario Archaeolo9ical Society Inc. 14th Annual Symposium RIVER~ THROUGH TIME: ARCHAEOLOGY ALONG OUR EASTERN WATERWAYS As Organizing Chairman of the OAS Symposium 1987,1 thought it would be a good idea to write a few words about the Symposium Committee and our plans to date. Committee members from the Ottawa Chapter have been very active over the past few months producing, among other things, the flyer which we hope you've pos- ted as a reminder. The Symposium has never been held in Eastern Ontario and we want to make the occasion something special. You'll hear both eastern regional overviews and site-specific information and major reports on province-wide archaeological activity, meet with colleagues from Eastern Canada and the northern United States, partake of optional tours around Canada's major museums, conservation and archival facilities, see the sights and experience the autumn splendour of the Ottawa Valley and the Nation's Capital. The facilities at the Skyline Hotel in downtown Ottawa will provide an appro- priate and comfortable venue, with your choice of pool, fitness facilities and cocktail lounge to unwind from the sessions. For Saturday night we've planned a banquet and dance in the Hotel's rooftop dining room with its panoramic views of the city, the Ottawa River and the Gatineau Hills of Quebec. Dr. J. V. Wright of the Archaeological Survey of Canada will be the banquet speaker. Jim's prominence in Ontario archaeology, his long involvement with the OAS and his role as a founder of the Ottawa Chapter should make his talk a highlight of the Sympos ium . The Planning Committee consists of: Dr. Ian Dyck, Programme Chairman; Karen Murchison, Registration and Publicity; Peggy Smyth, Finance; Marian Clark, Operations and Charles Garrad, OAS Liaison. These Chairmen and their commit- tees are working hard to make your 1987 Symposium a success. A reminder: Abstracts for papers are due by July 15 and should be addressed to Dr. Ian Dyck. For programme, registration or other information please write to us at: P. O. Box 4939, Station E, Ottawa, Ontario K1S 5Jl. Steve Cumbaa The views expressed in this publication do not necessarily represent the views of the editor or of The Ontario Archaeological Society Inc. t The existence of storage areas, in one or both ends of Iroquoian 10nghouses, is well documented in the historical. literature (Wrong 1939:94-95,104; Thwaites 8:107; Biggar 1929:123). Archaeologically, areas at the ends of longhouses,con- taining few features and sometimes exhibiting evidence of having been partition- ed from the main living area, are often attributed to storage cubicles. While the nature of these storage cubicles may not be a burning issue in the minds of most archaeologists, observations in two recent theses have prompted this clo- ser look at these features. In her study of Ontario Iroquois longhouses, Christine Dodd (1984:257) noted that although the length of 10nghouses tends to increase over time, there does not seem to be a concomitant increase in the length of storage cubicles. She attritubes this to: (a) a biased sample, (b) the provision of space in the lon- ger houses for non-permanent residents such as refugees or ambassadors, or (c) the use of alternative areas for storage. In the same volume, Gary Warrick (1984:41-43) uses Dodd's (1984:257) observation of greater hearth spacing in the longer (i.e. chiefly) houses, to suggest that these households had lower popula- tion densities. Combining this with Ibdd's (1984:257) observation on storage cubicles, he then argues that these chiefly households were not wealthier than their smaller counterparts since they do not have greater per capita storage areas.

Cambridge University Press, Forthcoming February 2007. Not for distribution. Women’s Constitutional Activism in Canada and South Africa Marilou McPhedran We now have a Charter which defines the kind of country in which we wish to live, and guarantees the basic rights and freedoms which each of us shall enjoy as a citizen of Canada. It reinforces the protection offered to French-speaking Canadians outside Quebec, and to English-speaking Canadians in Quebec. It recognizes our multicultural character. It upholds the equality of women, and the rights of disabled persons. Pierre Elliott Trudeau (1982) 1 ………………………………………………… Freedom cannot be achieved unless women have been emancipated from all forms of oppression. All of us must take this on board, that the objectives of the Reconstruction and Development Programme will not have been realized unless we see in visible and practical terms that the condition of the women of our country has radically changed for the better, and that they have been empowered to intervene in all aspects of life as equals with any other member of society.
