MWORANIIJM , of the Lieutenant Governor in Council of British Columbia For the consideration of Her Majesty's Commissioners at the INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE at Quebec. Supplementing its memorandum of the 7th instant, this Government desires to bring to the attention of Her Majesty's Honourable Commissioners the magnitude of the coal exporting industry in British Columbia and the importance of its interests being considered should any arrangement for reciprocity of exchange in natural products be entered into with the Govern- ment of the United States. As in the case of other industries the conditions of which this Government has had the opportunity of presenting to Her Majesty's Honourable Commissioners, so in regard to the coal mining industry the circumstanoes in British Columbia are almost the reverse of those Which prevail in Ontario and other parts of Eastern Canada. The excellence of the coal of this Province and its duperiority over that found in the Pacific, Coast States of the Union, has secured a market for our coal in San Francisco and other places. The customs duty which is levied on coal imported into the United States, greatly reduces the demand Which would otherwise exist for British Columbia coal, as on account of the addition made to its cost by the imposition of this duty, it comes into unfavourable competition with inferior qualities of coal sold at a lower price. Should Her Majesty's Honourable Commissioners conclude any arrangement with the Government of the United States for reciprocity in the exchange of natural products between the two countries this Government would respectfully but earnestly.ask that coal be included in the list of articles coming within the opera- tion of Each an arrangement. Minister of qnanoe. Dated the 24th day of September, 1898. .

Brief by Professor François Larocque Research Chair In
BRIEF BY PROFESSOR FRANÇOIS LAROCQUE RESEARCH CHAIR IN LANGUAGE RIGHTS UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA PRESENTED TO THE SENATE STANDING COMMITTEE ON OFFICIAL LANGUAGES AS PART OF ITS STUDY OF THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGES REFORM PROPOSAL UNVEILED ON FEBRUARY 19, 2021, BY THE MINISTER OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND OFFICIAL LANGUAGES, ENGLISH AND FRENCH: TOWARDS A SUBSTANTIVE EQUALITY OF OFFICIAL LANGUAGES IN CANADA MAY 31, 2021 Professor François Larocque Faculty of Law, Common Law Section University of Ottawa 57 Louis Pasteur Ottawa, ON K1J 6N5 Telephone: 613-562-5800, ext. 3283 Email: [email protected] 1. Thank you very much to the honourable members of the Senate Standing Committee on Official Languages (the “Committee”) for inviting me to testify and submit a brief as part of the study of the official languages reform proposal entitled French and English: Towards a Substantive Equality of Official Languages in Canada (“the reform proposal”). A) The reform proposal includes ambitious and essential measures 2. First, I would like to congratulate the Minister of Economic Development and Official Languages for her leadership and vision. It is, in my opinion, the most ambitious official languages reform proposal since the enactment of the Constitution Act, 1982 (“CA1982”)1 and the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms (“Charter”),2 which enshrined the main provisions of the Official Languages Act (“OLA”)3 of 1969 in the Canadian Constitution. The last reform of the OLA was in 1988 and it is past time to modernize it to adapt it to Canada’s linguistic realities and challenges in the 21st century. 3. The Charter and the OLA proclaim that “English and French are the official languages of Canada and have equality of status and equal rights and privileges as to their use in all institutions of the Parliament and government of Canada.”4 In reality, however, as reported by Statistics Canada,5 English is dominant everywhere, while French is declining, including in Quebec.

Sir John A. Macdonald Vindicated, a Review of the Right Honourable
~D()4 81 \ .JOH.J. -v . • -\. ){.c\( -: .A.I.D VINDICATED A RRVIR\V OF The Right Honourable Sir Richard Cartwright's Reminiscences BY SIR JOSEPH POPF':.K.C.M.G. PRICE 250. THF. PUBLISHERS' ASSOCIATION OT" CANADA, LIMITED TORONTO ( RT. HO",. SlH HI CHAIW CART lVlU GH T REMINISCENCES By THE RIGHT HONOURABLE SIR RICHARD CARTWRIGHT, G.C.M.G., P.C. THIS book is not aptly named. By Reminiscences of a publi c man, is commonly understood a chat ty narration of past events - a recital of what happened during a stated period, and of th e narrator's share th erein. T he volume under considerat ion is rather an Apologia,-a justification of Sir Richard Cart wright's public career, accompanied by a denunciation of all who presumed to differ from him . Mu ch of it suggests the decrees of a Pontiff defining t hings to be believed und er pain of censure , and t his im pression is heightened by t he catechetical form in which the credenda are proclaim ed. This style, however, t hough at times irritating, is not without its compensations. It is always refreshing to find a man who is not afraid to give clear- cut expression of his views upon men and things, and t he pleasur e is enhanced when, as in t he present case, t hese views are presented in t he te rse and vigorous Saxon which Sir Richard knew so well how to employ. There"never is any doubt as to his meaning- no small advantage in th is age of quali fications and refinements.

October 21, 2020 The Right Honourable Justin Trudeau The Honourable Jonathan Wilkinson Prime Minister of Canada Minister of Environment and Climate Change The Honourable Chrystia Freeland The Honourable Seamus O’Regan Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Minister of Natural Resources Finance The Honourable Catherine McKenna Minister of Infrastructure and Communities House of Commons Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0A6 RE: CHFCA Support for the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada Dear Ministers, The Canadian Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Association (CHFCA) represents Canada’s world leading hydrogen and fuel cell sector. We have over 70 member companies comprising over 2,000 employees in highly skilled jobs and the sector has attracted over $0.5 billion of investment in the past 2 years -- and is growing. But this is only the tip of the iceberg. Hydrogen energy will benefit millions of Canadians and help scores of industries decarbonize. The Hydrogen Council forecasts the global sector will become a $2.5 trillion annual market by 2050 to achieve net-zero CO2 emissions, while the Bank of America cites Bloomberg BNEF forecasting an $11 trillion infrastructure market over the next 30 years1. Canada is well positioned to secure a large share of that market due to the world renown strength of our technology companies and energy resources. But over 26 other countries also see the opportunity, so there is urgency to move quickly to maintain our Canadian advantage. For that reason, the CHFCA, with the support of other leading Canadian industry associations, urges: 1. The prompt release of the Hydrogen Strategy for Canada, 2. That it be backed with significant federal government investment, and 3.

Over the centuries, certain customs and traditions have been established regarding styles and forms of address; they follow below: a. Duke & Duchess: Formal style: "The Most Noble the Duke of (title); although this is now very rare; the style is more usually, “His Grace the Duke of (Hamilton), and his address is, "Your Grace" or simply, "Duke” or “Duchess.” The eldest son uses one of his father's subsidiary titles as a courtesy. Younger sons use "Lord" followed by their first name (e.g., Lord David Scott); daughters are "Lady" followed by their first name (e.g., Lady Christina Hamilton); in conversation, they would be addressed as Lord David or Lady Christina. The same rules apply to eldest son's sons and daughters. The wife of a younger son uses”Lady” prior to her husbands name, (e.g. Lady David Scot) b.
