The steps taken by Governor Carleton in calling this assembly are detailed in his letter of October 25, 1785, to Lord Stanley in the Colonial Office at London: "My Lord, I have the honor to inform your Lordship that having completed such arrangements as appeared to be previously requested, I directed writs to issue on the 15th instant for convening a General Assembly to meet on the first Tuesday in January next. In this first election it has been thought advisable to admit all males of full age who have been inhabitants of the province for no less than three months to the privilege of voting, as otherwise many industrious and meritorious settlers, who are improving the lands allotted to them but have not yet received the King's Grant, must have been excluded. … The House of Representatives will consist of 26 members, who are chosen by their respective counties, no Boroughs or cities being allowed a distinct Representation. The county of St. John is to send six members, Westmorland, Charlotte, and York four members each, Kings, Queens, Sunbury and Northumberland, each two members.

  • Francis Andrew Brewin, “He Who Would Valiant Be”: the Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist
    Francis Andrew Brewin, “He Who Would Valiant Be”: The Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist JOHN BREWIN1 Francis Andrew Brewin (1907-1983) was a formative figure in the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) and later in the New Democratic Party. He helped to shape a party that shaped Canada. FAB, as I shall refer to him, was a lifelong “practising” Anglican. He represented a significant Anglican contribution to the Canadian polity. His religious sensibilities led to his decision to join the CCF in 1935 and determined the nature of his participation. This paper focuses on FAB’s decision to join the CCF, and examines the cultures that interacted to produce that decision. It will be argued that his religion and his politics were completely integrated. In his context it made sense for FAB to become a democratic socialist of the Canadian variety. The paper’s methodology is influenced by the approach of Clifford Geertz, as described by Aletta Biersack.2 The decision by FAB to join and to become active in the CCF is best understood as a cultural event, the convergence of cultures that gave FAB his world-view and informed his actions. I will, therefore, look at each of the main sources of FAB’s cultural perspective. In revisiting the way in which one Christian of a particular tradition responded to the problems of his day, one might glimpse how we might respond to the almost overwhelming social, economic and environmental challenges of our own day. Historical Papers 2000: Canadian Society of Church History 74 The Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist Family FAB’s family background was very English and very Canadian.

  • Summary Perspectives Link Opens in New Window
    Summary Perspective The Province of Canada: Canada West John A. Macdonald and his allies mobilized massive support for Confederation. George Brown and his supporters also saw more advantages than drawbacks, although they had some reservations. Representation The province would finally get more representatives to match its growing population. It would therefore carry more political weight within the new Confederation than in the Province of Canada. Prosperity Confederation would create new markets, make the railway companies more profitable and help people enter the territory to settle land in the West. Security Confederation would allow better military protection against the Americans and others. Since the advantages were obvious, 54 of the 62 members of the Legislative Assembly from Canada West voted in favour of ratifying the Confederation initiative. Summary Perspective Province of Canada: Canada East George-Étienne Cartier’s party, the Parti bleu, enthusiastically supported the Confederation initiative. Antoine-Aimé Dorion’s Parti rouge was, however, opposed. Autonomy and Survival The province would maintain control of its language, religion, education system and civil law. The rights of French Canadians would therefore be safe from the English. However, some people were worried about the scope of the federal government’s power. They thought that the French would be outnumbered by the English, and that the religion most Francophones practiced might be threatened by the Protestant religion favoured by most English. Security Confederation would allow better military protection against the Americans and others. Some were scared, however, that the union might make people from other countries angry by provoking them into a fight. If all of the colonies were getting together, other countries might see a threat, and want to deal with it.

Comments in brackets are not part of the original document. They have been added to assist the reader with difficult words. The Morning Telegraph September 12, 1864 … the Mother Country [Great Britain] is becoming tired of her Colonial depen- dencies. This is undoubtedly the prevailing sentiment [popular feeling] among the English statesmen [politicians]. Veterans like Lord Palmerston and Earl Derby may not say so, whatever they may feel; they leave the expression of such radi- cal sentiments to the new school of politicians, to rising men of the stamp of Mr. Gladstone and Mr. Goldwin Smith …. We consider, then, that the time is near at hand when we shall be told to shift ourselves; and the American difficulty [American Civil War], if we are not greatly mistaken, had brought the time con- siderably nearer … than it otherwise would be. © Public Domain – originally published in the Morning Telegraph, September 12, 1864, As quoted in Waite, P.
