    1 the Crown and Honours

    The Crown and Honours: Getting it Right Christopher McCreery I N T R O D U C T I O N In the words of that early scholar of Commonwealth autonomy, Sir Arthur Berridale Keith, “The Crown is the fount of all honour.”i The role of the Crown as the fount of all official honours in Canada is a precept that is as old and constant as is the place of the Crown in our constitutional structure. Since the days of King Louis XIV residents of Canada have been honoured by the Crown for their services with a variety of orders, decorations and medals. The position of the Crown in the modern Canadian honours system is something that is firmly entrenched, despite consistent attempts to marginalize it in recent years. Indeed honours are not something separate from the Crown, they are an integral element of the Crown. A part that affords individuals with official recognition for what are deemed as good works, or in the modern context, exemplary citizenship. Just last year we witnessed the Queen’s direct involvement in the honours system when she appointed Jean Chrétien as a member of the Order of Merit. While many commentators and officials in Canada seemed confused as to just what this honour is – the highest civil honour for service – people did realize how significant it was, in large part because it came not from a committee or politician, but directly from the Sovereign. With this paper I will delve into the central role the Crown and Sovereign play in the creation of honours and I will also explore the areas where attention and reform are required in the Canadian honours system.

    Canadian Infantry Combat Training During the Second World War

    SHARPENING THE SABRE: CANADIAN INFANTRY COMBAT TRAINING DURING THE SECOND WORLD WAR By R. DANIEL PELLERIN BBA (Honours), Wilfrid Laurier University, 2007 BA (Honours), Wilfrid Laurier University, 2008 MA, University of Waterloo, 2009 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy degree in History University of Ottawa Ottawa, Ontario, Canada © Raymond Daniel Ryan Pellerin, Ottawa, Canada, 2016 ii ABSTRACT “Sharpening the Sabre: Canadian Infantry Combat Training during the Second World War” Author: R. Daniel Pellerin Supervisor: Serge Marc Durflinger 2016 During the Second World War, training was the Canadian Army’s longest sustained activity. Aside from isolated engagements at Hong Kong and Dieppe, the Canadians did not fight in a protracted campaign until the invasion of Sicily in July 1943. The years that Canadian infantry units spent training in the United Kingdom were formative in the history of the Canadian Army. Despite what much of the historical literature has suggested, training succeeded in making the Canadian infantry capable of succeeding in battle against German forces. Canadian infantry training showed a definite progression towards professionalism and away from a pervasive prewar mentality that the infantry was a largely unskilled arm and that training infantrymen did not require special expertise. From 1939 to 1941, Canadian infantry training suffered from problems ranging from equipment shortages to poor senior leadership. In late 1941, the Canadians were introduced to a new method of training called “battle drill,” which broke tactical manoeuvres into simple movements, encouraged initiative among junior leaders, and greatly boosted the men’s morale.

The blockade has received modest attention in the historiography of the First World War, despite the assertion in the British official history that extreme privation and hunger resulted in more than 750,000 German civilian deaths.

  • The Conscription Debate Lesson Plan

    The Conscription Debate Lesson Plan

    The Conscription Debate Lesson Plan Description: In this lesson, students learn about the conscription debate in Canada in 1917. Students are organized into three groups (anti-conscription farmers, anti- conscription French Canadians, and pro-conscription English Canadians), and conduct research on the argument for or against conscription made by their assigned group. Students then participate in a debate on the topic. Recommended Grade Range All provinces and territories except Quebec: Grades 10 to12 Quebec: Secondary 4 and 5 Prerequisites: This lesson should follow previous discussions and lessons on the First World War. Objectives: • Students learn why Prime Minister Borden introduced the Military Service Act in 1917, enacting conscription by law; • Students learn why many farmers and French Canadians opposed conscription; • Students work in groups assigned to represent farmers, French Canadians, and English Canadians, and conduct research for a debate on conscription; • Student groups organize their research results in a table; • Students conduct a debate on the issue of conscription using their research. Estimated Time: 3-4 class periods Materials Required: • Overhead transparencies of First World War recruitment posters printed from the resources section, or copies of these posters to hand out to students, downloaded from resources sections; • Projector (if not using copies); • Internet/computer lab access for 1-2 class periods; • Copies of the Conscription Debate Worksheet. Lesson: Warm-up • Project or hand out images of recruitment posters • Ask students to discuss the posters, prompting them to consider issues related to joining the military. What reasons might people have for volunteering to go to war? What reasons do the posters suggest? Are the posters effective in convincing the The Conscription Debate Lesson Plan viewer? What reasons might people have for not volunteering to go to war? • Remind students to keep in mind the social context of Canada during the First World War.
