  • 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.

  • 1 Abstract in the Autumn of 1555, After Almost a Decade of Decay, The
    ENGLISH NAVAL EXPANSION UNDER THE FRENCH THREAT, 1555-641 Abstract In the autumn of 1555, after almost a decade of decay, the Marian regime decided to rebuild the English navy. With the encouragement of her Spanish husband, Queen Mary supported the new construction of three large carracks that would assist in the kingdom’s war against the substantial maritime forces of Henri II of France. Even with the potential insurance of Spanish military reinforcements from her husband, the French navy had expanded unprecedentedly under Henri II, forcing England’s maritime resources to their limits. This article will argue that it was these conflicts with France between 1557 and 1564 that forced the Marian and early Elizabethan institutions to endorse a policy of naval expansion. Keywords: Elizabethan navy, Marian navy, naval expansion, England, France, Henri II. Elizabeth I’s navy is widely upheld by historians as the tool that successfully defended England from the superior Spanish Armada. Infamous figures, including Sir Francis Drake and Sir John Hawkins, two of the queen’s most celebrated sea dogs, are now renowned English heroes. Moreover, the expansion of the realm’s maritime resources, 1 I would like to thank Professor Penny Roberts, Dr. Alan James, Dr. Gabriel Glickman and the anonymous reviewers for their comments on the earlier drafts of this article. 1 and the series of naval feats during the Spanish War, have carved Elizabeth I (1533- 1603) into history as the mother of the future Royal Navy, even if her willingness to use it was questioned at the time.2 This article however will not concern itself with this latter period of Elizabethan history, which has received wide attention since Sir Julian Corbett’s two volume series published in 1898.3 Instead, it covers a period that has drawn far less consideration both from scholarship and popular culture.

EVE BTBATSFORD, 94 HIGH HOLBORN LONDON I907 Bctlkr & Tanner, The Selwood Printing ^Vobks, Frome, and London. 1GC0718 P r e fa c e THE intention of this book is to assist the workers in the many arts that are concerned with heraldry, in varying degrees, by putting before them as simply as possible the essential principles of heraldic art. In this way it is hoped to contribute to the improve- ment in the treatment of heraldry that is already evident, as a result of the renewed recognition of its ornamental and historic importance, but which still leaves so much to be desired. It is hoped that not only artists but also those who are, or may become, interested in this attractive subject in other ways, will find herein some helpful information and direction. So that the work of the artist and the judgment and appreciation of the public may alike be furthered by a knowledge of the factors that go to make up heraldic design and of the technique of various methods of carrying it into execution. To this end the illustrations have been selected from a wide range of subjects and concise descriptions of the various processes have been included. And although the scope of the book cannot include all the methods of applying heraldry, in Bookbinding, Pottery and Tiles for example, the principles that are set forth will serve ;; VI PREFACE all designers who properly consider the capabilities and limitations of their materials.

  • The First Wales & Monmouthshire Regional
    STAMP DEFINITIVES THE FIRST WALES & MONMOUTHSHIRE REGIONAL STAMPS Date of issue: AUGUST 1958 - AUGUST 1969 On 18 July 1956 the Postmaster General (PMG), Dr Charles Hill, was asked in Parliament whether consideration had been given to issuing distinctive stamps for different parts of the United Kingdom. In reply he outlined the proposals informally approved by the Queen on 7 July for the GPO to issue 2½d, 4d and 1s 3d values for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and 2½d for Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man. He explained that the size, basic design and colour of the stamps would not change; the Queen’s head would remain the dominant feature but the borders of each stamp would contain symbols or designs appropriate to the country or area concerned, in place of those on the United Kingdom permanent issue. This ‘would symbolise the unity, combined with diversity, which provides the continuing strength of the British tradition’. It was intended that committees ‘representative of cultural and artistic interests in the countries and islands concerned’ be set up to advise on the design of the stamps. The announcement was not universally welcomed; for example, Viscount Elibank wrote in a letter to ‘The Daily Telegraph’ of 31 July that stamps with Welsh symbols would be ‘foisted’ on the English border counties of Cheshire, Shropshire and Herefordshire. THE MONMOUTHSHIRE PROBLEM On 23 July S D Sargent, the Deputy Director General (DDG) of the Post Office, wrote to Sir Austin Strutt of the Home Office regarding the matter raised in the provincial press over 1 whether the stamps for Wales would also be sold in Monmouthshire.
