This Commentary is brought to you for free and open access by the Journals at Schulich Law Scholars. It has been accepted for inclusion in Dalhousie Law Journal by an authorized editor of Schulich Law Scholars. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Philip Girard* "His whole life was one of continual warfare": John Thomas Bulmer, Lawyer, Librarian and Social Reformer1 On a clear cold day in January, 1899 a ship entered Halifax harbour with a rather unusual cargo. Some 5,000 Doukhobours fleeing persecution in Czarist Russia made a brief stop in the port before proceeding to their ultimate destination in the Canadian West. In spite of the brevity of their stay, a number of Haligonians boarded the vessel to express their good wishes. A lawyer deputed by a workmen's association to address the throng spoke through an interpreter, but his speech did not contain the clichs usually retailed on such occasions. You bring to Canada something more needed in this country than new immigrants - men who will stand by their principles no matter how much suffering it costs them.

  • 40 Years of Activism: Working for a Better Dalhousie
    40 Years of Activism: Working for a Better Dalhousie Celebrating DFA’s 40th year as a certified bargaining agent TERRITORIAL ACKNOWLEDGEMENT We would like to begin by acknowledging that we are in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq People. This territory is covered by the “Treaties of Peace and Friendship” which Mi’kmaq and Maliseet people first signed with the British Crown in 1725. The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Maliseet title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations. SPECIAL THANKS Thank you to those who wrote articles: David Westwood, David Robinson, Robert Rodger, Ray Larkin, Dale Poel, Jane Fee, Pierre Stevens, Mandy Kay-Raining Bird, David Mensink, Debbie Mellish, Catrina Brown, Darren Abramson, Faye Woodman, and Julia M. Wright. Thank you to our former Presidents who submitted their President Recollections: Sue Sherwin, Chris Axworthy, Marcia Ozier, David Lewis, David Tindall, Colin Stuttard, Jane Fee, Ian Flint, Kevin Grundy, Helen Powell, Jerome Singleton, David Mensink, Terry Mitchell, Carrie Dawson, Catrina Brown, and Laurene Rehman. Thanks to Shirley Vail, Digitization Coordinator, Dalhousie University Archives, for helping us gather information and articles about the DFA; and thanks to Randy Barkhouse, Association of Dalhousie Retirees and Pensioners, for his help in contacting many of our former DFA presidents.
