  • Translating the Constitution Act, 1867
    TRANSLATING THE CONSTITUTION ACT, 1867 A Legal-Historical Perspective by HUGO YVON DENIS CHOQUETTE A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Law in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Laws Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada September 2009 Copyright © Hugo Yvon Denis Choquette, 2009 Abstract Twenty-seven years after the adoption of the Constitution Act, 1982, the Constitution of Canada is still not officially bilingual in its entirety. A new translation of the unilingual Eng- lish texts was presented to the federal government by the Minister of Justice nearly twenty years ago, in 1990. These new French versions are the fruits of the labour of the French Constitutional Drafting Committee, which had been entrusted by the Minister with the translation of the texts listed in the Schedule to the Constitution Act, 1982 which are official in English only. These versions were never formally adopted. Among these new translations is that of the founding text of the Canadian federation, the Constitution Act, 1867. A look at this translation shows that the Committee chose to de- part from the textual tradition represented by the previous French versions of this text. In- deed, the Committee largely privileged the drafting of a text with a modern, clear, and con- cise style over faithfulness to the previous translations or even to the source text. This translation choice has important consequences. The text produced by the Commit- tee is open to two criticisms which a greater respect for the prior versions could have avoided. First, the new French text cannot claim the historical legitimacy of the English text, given their all-too-dissimilar origins.

  • The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-39
    THE POLICY OF NEGLECT: THE CANADIAN MILITIA IN THE INTERWAR YEARS, 1919-39 ___________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Britton Wade MacDonald January, 2009 iii © Copyright 2008 by Britton W. MacDonald iv ABSTRACT The Policy of Neglect: The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-1939 Britton W. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin The Canadian Militia, since its beginning, has been underfunded and under-supported by the government, no matter which political party was in power. This trend continued throughout the interwar years of 1919 to 1939. During these years, the Militia’s members had to improvise a great deal of the time in their efforts to attain military effectiveness. This included much of their training, which they often funded with their own pay. They created their own training apparatuses, such as mock tanks, so that their preparations had a hint of realism. Officers designed interesting and unique exercises to challenge their personnel. All these actions helped create esprit de corps in the Militia, particularly the half composed of citizen soldiers, the Non- Permanent Active Militia. The regulars, the Permanent Active Militia (or Permanent Force), also relied on their own efforts to improve themselves as soldiers. They found intellectual nourishment in an excellent service journal, the Canadian Defence Quarterly, and British schools. The Militia learned to endure in these years because of all the trials its members faced. The interwar years are important for their impact on how the Canadian Army (as it was known after 1940) would fight the Second World War.

  • Introduction
    backhouse 02text (xi-322) 4/22/04 4:06 PM Page 3 INTRODUCTION Y about to meet Mrs. Elizabeth Bethune Campbell, a woman of formidable intellect, wit, and sarcasm, with the determination of steel. Her book, Where Angels Fear to Tread, written in and self- published in from her home in the rectory of St. John’s Episcopalian Church in Jamaica Plain, Boston, raised considerable controversy when it first appeared. Mrs. Campbell’s fascinating entan- glement with the law spanned fourteen years. It began in , when she first came across an unsigned copy of her mother’s will while sort- ing through musty family trunks. The saga peaked in , when Mrs. Campbell appeared on her own behalf to argue her case in front of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London. The legal battle finally ended in , when the Ontario Court of Appeal issued its last decision on the matter of costs relating to the complex web of litiga- tion spawned by Mrs. Campbell’s inheritance. The story that Mrs. Campbell tells is extraordinary, and not only because she appears to have been the first woman to argue in front of the Law Lords at the Privy Council. Mrs. Campbell’s description of the barriers she surmounted before emerging victorious in England unveils the intricate, multilayered world of overlapping intrigue and influence that constituted the early-twentieth-century Ontario legal system. From her unique vantage point as both an insider and an out- sider, she comments on the actions of lawyers and judges with acuity and perspicacity. Others might have thought as she did.

  • Canadian Arctic Sovereignty and Security
    Journal of Military and Strategic Studies, Spring 2009, Vol. 11, Issue 3. IN DEFENCE OF DEFENCE: CANADIAN ARCTIC SOVEREIGNTY AND SECURITY LCol. Paul Dittmann, 3 Canadian Forces Flying Training School Since the Second World War, Canada‟s armed forces have often represented the most prominent federal organization in the occupation and use of the Canadian Arctic. Economic development in the region came in fits and starts, hindered by remoteness and the lack of any long-term industry base. Today the Arctic‟s resource potential, fuelled by innovative technological advances, has fed to demands for infrastructure development. New opportunities in Canada‟s Arctic have, in turn, influenced a growing young population and their need for increased social development. Simultaneously, the fragile environment becomes a global focal point as the realities of climate change are increasingly accepted, diplomatically drawing together circumpolar nations attempting to address common issues. A unipolar world order developed with the geopolitical imbalance caused by the fall of the Soviet Union. This left the world‟s sole superpower, the United States (US), and its allies facing increased regional power struggles, international terrorism, and trans-national crime. Given the combination of tremendous growth in the developing world, its appetite for commodities, and the accessibility to resource-rich polar regions facilitated by climate change, Canada faces security and sovereignty issues that are both remnants of the Cold War era and newly emerging. The response to these challenges has been a resurgence of military initiatives to empower Canadian security and sovereignty in the region.

  • Unfortunate Child
    UNFORTUNATE CHILD … not John A. of Kingston, for by all accounts he’d rather drink whiskey than make it, but John A. of Perth, who’d rather sell it than drink it …1 John A. McLaren (1831-1901) On Saturday December 7, 1901, 70-year-old John A. McLaren, suffered what the local newspaper called “a slight apoplectic attack”2; but despite the best efforts of local practitioner Dr. David Munro (1842-1903), assisted by “Dr. Stewart3, the Montreal specialist”, Perth’s ‘Whiskey4 King’ died of “acute spinal paralysis”5 on Wednesday, December 11th. Described by the Perth Courier as the community’s “keenest businessman and largest individual taxpayer”6, McLaren was a very wealthy man and, as his condition deteriorated over those five days in December, business associates, employees, friends, family and the merely curious converged on his Wilson Street7 home. Among these was his half-sister, Elizabeth ‘Eliza’ Cameron-McIntyre (1841-1915) of Renfrew, who arrived at his bedside on Monday evening December 9th. Eliza’s concern, however, was not primarily for John A.’s comfort in his final hours, but for what she hoped to gain by his imminent death. Two days later, as John A. breathed his last, Eliza crept into “a room at the end of the hall [and], from the top of a red box, took down a brown valise”8 containing McLaren’s most important personal papers. She broke open the lock, extracted her brother’s last will and testament and, enraged by what she read, “sent it up in smoke”.9 1 Perth Courier, December 15, 1865.
