This project has three main outcomes. Firstly, it provides a history of black slavery in Montreal details the founding of The Gazette and evaluates its spatial layout, particularly the classified section where slave ads appear. Secondly, it analyzes the representation of black slaves in two distinct news forms: (1) ads of sale and (2) notices of escaped slaves, with particular focus on representations of race, gender, class, and criminality. Thirdly, it addresses the presentation of race and national identity in The Gazette, through both textual analysis and comparative analysis with the United States and Haiti. The project engages with conceptions of Canadian national identity throughout, particularly with respect to issues of tolerance and selective memory. Résumé du mémoire Ce mémoire présente une analyse attentive des représentations de l'esclavage dans The Montreal Gazette entre 1785 et 1805, les vingt premières années où ce journal est devenu bilingue. Ce projet a trois objectifs principaux. li offre une histoire de l'esclavage des Noirs à Montréal, détaille la création de la Gazette et évalue l'espace de sa mise en page, notamment des sections où les esclaves sont mentionnés. Ensuite, il analyse la représentation faite des esclaves à travers deux formes journalistiques: (1) annonces de ventes et (2) notices des esclaves en fuite, avec une attention particulière à la race, au genre, la classe et la criminalité. Enfin, il étudie les représentations de l'appartenance raciale et de l'identité nationale dans la Gazette à travers une analyse textuelle et comparative avec les Etats-Unis et Haïti. Ce projet discute les conceptions de l'identité nationale canadienne, dont les questions de tolérance et de mémoire sélective. 2 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This Master's thesis is dedicated to my dear parents, Katherine Babiuk and Ugo Extian, as weIl as my wonderful siblings, Odebo, Arisa and Ashaya.

Welton Abstract This perspectives essay sketches how men and women of New France in the 17th and 18th centuries learned to make a living , live their lives, and express themselves under exceptionally difficult circumstances. This paper works with secondary sources, but brings new questions to old data. Among other things, the author explores how citizen learning was forbidden in 17th- and 18th-century New France, and at what historical point a critical adult education emerged. The author's narrative frame and interpretation of the sources constitute one of many legitimate forms of historical inquiry.

  • Nurturing Media Vitality in Quebec's English-Speaking Minority
    Brief to the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage Nurturing Media Vitality in Quebec’s English-speaking Minority Communities Presented by the Quebec Community Groups Network April 12, 2016 Introduction The Quebec Community Groups Network, or QCGN, is a not-for-profit representative organization. We serve as a centre of evidence-based expertise and collective action. QCGN is focused on strategic issues affecting the development and vitality of Canada’s English linguistic minority communities, to which we collectively refer as the English-speaking community of Quebec. Our 48 members are also not-for-profit community groups. Most provide direct services to community members. Some work regionally, providing broad-based services. Others work across Quebec in specific sectors such as health, and arts and culture. Our members include the Quebec Community Newspaper Association (QCNA). English-speaking Quebec is Canada’s largest official language minority community. A little more than 1 million Quebecers specify English as their first official spoken language. Although 84 per cent of our community lives within the Montreal Census Metropolitan Area, more than 210,000 community members live in other Quebec regions. Media Landscape English-speaking Quebecers have consistently signalled that access to information in their own language is both a need and a priority (CHSSN-CROP survey, various years). This may seem a bit of a contradiction in a world awash in English language information through CNN, Time magazine and Hollywood movies galore. The important nuance is that English- speaking Quebecers need information in their own language about their own local and regional communities, something that is increasingly hard to access on a consistent basis in a context of the francization of daily life in Quebec and the demise of traditional community media.

    The Honest Man/L’Homme Honnête: The Colonial Gentleman, the Development of the Press, and the Race and Gender Discourses of the Newspapers in the British “Province of Quebec,” 1764-1791 By Valérie Isabelle Martin A thesis submitted to the Graduate Program in History in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September, 2018 Copyright © Valérie Isabelle Martin, 2018 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the new public world of print that emerged and developed in the “Province of Quebec” from 1764 to 1791. Using discourse analysis, it argues that the press reflected, and contributed to producing the race and gender privileges of the White, respectable gentleman, also called the “honest man,” regardless of whether he was Canadien or of Anglo-descent. A British colony created by the Royal Proclamation of 1763, the Province of Quebec existed until 1791 when it was divided into the separate colonies of Upper and Lower Canada by the Constitutional Act. The colony’s development and dissolution corresponded with a growing population and changing demographics in the Saint Lawrence Valley, a brief increase in racial slavery in Montreal and Quebec City, and altered political and economic alliances between the White settler population and Native peoples of the North American interior after the defeat of the French in 1763 and following the emergence of the American Republic in 1783. Internally, changes brought about by the conclusion of the British Conquest in 1760, such as the introduction of British rule and English law in Quebec, were implemented alongside French ancien régime structures of legal and political governance that persisted mostly unhampered and fostered the preservation of an authoritarian-style government in the new “old” colony.

PHOTO BY JOHN MAHONEY /Montreal Gazette Paula Girolami never intended to homeschool her children. But as the main caregiver for an elderly, immuno-compromised family member, she felt she couldn’t risk her boys bringing COVID-19 back from school. Last September, she reluctantly withdrew her sons, Domenico, 10, and Renato, 14, and took on the responsibility of ensuring they would make it through Grades 4 and 9 from their home in Lachine. They were among nearly 7,700 Quebec children who were taken out of their traditional classes this year because of COVID fears, more than doubling the total number of children homeschooled in the province annually.
