A Tour of the Golden Square Mile He Travelled Around the World to Find One A TOUR OF THE GOLDEN SQUARE MILE HE TRAVELLED AROUND THE WORLD TO FIND ONE, They knew at once that she must be a real princess when she had felt the pea through twenty mattresses and twenty feather beds. Nobody but a real princess could have such a delicate skin. BUT NOWHERE COULD HE GET WHAT HE WANTED. THE PRINCESS AND THE PEA, by Hans Christian Andersen POIS n.m.─ French for "pea", a climbing plant whose seeds are grown for food. Des pois mange-tout, des pois chiches, des petits pois frais. At Le Pois Penché, we constantly strive for excellence, refinement, sophistication and perfection, just like the qualities sought by the prince in his princess, in Andersen’s tale. What is a "BRASSERIE"? ACCORDING TO IMAD NABWANI, OWNER OF LE POIS PENCHÉ A Parisian-style brasserie is all about comfort. It’s about food, wine and service that make you feel welcome, warm, special. And here at Le Pois Penché, that’s precisely what our pursuit of perfection is rooted in: simplicity and comfort. We are among friends here. A steady flow of regulars and new patrons alike keeps the place humming and thrumming with life. As one table leaves, another group of people takes their place. A glass of wine to start, followed by a tartare, perhaps? Good wine and good food can be appreciated at any age. Brasserie cuisine is universal in its appeal. There’s no such thing as a "typical" patron at Le Pois Penché. The makeup of our clientele changes daily – hourly even. And this pleases us to no end. When it comes right down to it, the brasserie experience is a reflection of you, how you feel and what suits your fancy on a given day. HOW TO SHUCK AN OYSTER I N PS THREE STE - 1 - Place the oyster in the palm of your hand and grasp firmly. For new "shuckers", we recommend using a folded tea towel to protect hand. - 2 - Slide the tip of your oyster knife into the hinge and pry open. - 3 - Sever the muscle that connects the oyster to the shell by sliding the tip of the knife along the inner surface of the shell, being careful not to puncture the oyster itself to ensure it remains juicy. And that’s it – your oyster is shucked! Savour straight out of the shell or with the accompaniment of your choice.

Located at the foot of Mount Royal, this iconic neighbourhood was the driving force behind Montreal’s THE prosperity in the 19th century and contributed greatly to the country’s economic development. Between 1850 and 1930, some of North America’s most influential families – GOLDEN SQUARE from prominent dignitaries to captains of industry – called the Golden Square Mile home. In fact, in its heyday, 70% of Canada’s wealth was concentrated in this MILE small, yet powerful, quadrangle. The architectural style of the opulent mansions erected in the Golden Square Mile during this period was unlike anything else in Canada. Today, the Golden Square Mile embodies the vibrant, eclectic character that defines Montreal.

The Fur Trade was one of the earliest and most important industries in North America. This timeline shows the chronological order of events. • Champlain was one of the first people to realize the potential of trade in North America. The King of France gave him permission to establish a permanent settlement in Canada, and told Champlain to develop the fur trade. • Not long after, the English saw the financial potential of the fur trade. • Competition between England and France grew fierce. 1603 • Competition in the fur trade also sparked fighting between the First Nations tribes. • In 1610 Champlain sent 18 year old Étienne Brulé to live among the Hurons and explore the wilderness of Huronia. Brulé went on many expeditions for Champlain and the fur traders, travelled over much of the Great Lakes basin to encourage the profitable business of fur trading. • Hudson Bay Company was formed. King Charles granted his cousin, Prince 1670 Rupert, a charter creating HBC as a corporate entity. • From 1670 to 1870 the fur trade was the main focus of the HBC. • A powerful group, made up of nine different fur traders, developed into 1774 the North West Trading Company. They dominated the Government and considered the natural riches of the land to be the monopoly of this company.

  • The Beaver Club (1785-1827): Behind Closed Doors Bella Silverman
    The Beaver Club (1785-1827): Behind Closed Doors Bella Silverman Montreal’s infamous Beaver Club (1785-1827) was a social group that brought together retired merchants and acted as a platform where young fur traders could enter Montreal’s bourgeois society.1 The rules and social values governing the club reveal the violent, racist, and misogynistic underpinnings of the group; its membership was exclusively white and male, and the club admitted members who participated in morally grotesque and violent activities, such as murder and slavery. Further, the club’s mandate encouraged the systematic “othering” of those believed to be “savage” and unlike themselves.2 Indeed, the Beaver Club’s exploitive, exclusive, and violent character was cultivated in private gatherings held at its Beaver Hall Hill mansion.3 (fig. 1) Subjected to specific rules and regulations, the club allowed members to collude economically, often through their participation in the institution of slavery, and idealize the strength of white men who wintered in the North American interior or “Indian Country.”4 Up until 1821, Montreal was a mercantile city which relied upon the fur trade and international import-exports as its economic engine.5 Following the British Conquest of New France in 1759, the fur trading merchants’ influence was especially strong.6 Increasing affluence and opportunities for leisure led to the establishment of social organizations, the Beaver Club being one among many.7 The Beaver Club was founded in 1785 by the same group of men who founded the North West Company (NWC), a fur trading organization established in 1775. 9 Some of the company’s founding partners were James McGill, the Frobisher brothers, and later, Alexander Henry.10 These men were also some of the Beaver Club’s original members.11 (figs.

    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part Two ISBN 0 902198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART II K-Z C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.
