In the following thesis, I will employ primary documents to undertake an original study of the early development of government policy towards titular honours. The evolution and development of the Canadian government's policy will be examined in the context of increasing Canadian autonomy within the British Empire/Commonwealth- The incidents that prompted the development of a Canadian made formal policy will also be discussed. Finally, I will examine the national origin, religious, provincial, political and occupation characteristics ofthe 20 1 residents of Canada who were awarded knighthoods for services rendered to Canada. iii Acknowledgments This thesis is dedicated to Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir Frederick Banting: one heIped to shape a nation, the other shaped the lives of countless millions who he saved They are the two greatest knights this country has known, Much thanks is owed to my family for their perseverance and support throughout this entire project. The patience, understanding and guidance of my advisor, Ian McKay, has been of the utmost importance. To him I offer my most sincere thanks and admiration: without his assistance this thesis would have not been possible. Thanks is owed to the Queen's University Archives, and in particular George Henderson, who provided me with a seemingly endless supply of help. I might also add Ross Cameron, who slaved to put away the 541 Prime Ministerial microfilm reels that 1examined. I would also like to express appreciation to my fellow graduate students, especially those select few who attended the now infamous "R.B. Bennett Midnight Memorial Picnic." My findings that the 'Wickle Resolution" is inaptly named and does not necessarily preclude Canadians fiom becoming peers of knights doubtless has W.F. Nickle spinning in his grave. To add insult to injury, this thesis was largely written in Nickle's backyard -- for Watson Hall at Queen's is located just behind the spacious "Grey House" Nickle once called home. In apologizing to Nickle's spirit, I might also add my expression of respect for his life and work - which, whatever else one might, say, brought questions of honour to the front of centre of Canadian public We.

Nickle and the Vhilosophy of Title "You call them toys; know that by these toys people are led."' Ottawa, 8 April 1918. The political atmosphere was charged with the Great War and its unprecedented demands on Canadian society. Conscription, war profiteering, the proposed income tax, and the enforcement of labour discipline were the leading questions of the day. There was a sense of urgency in the air, and the Union Government - itseIfa noveI bipartisan indication of the political revolution effected by the war conditions - had a f5.d.l and pressing agenda. Into this situation walked 48-year-old William Folger Nickle, KC., a relatively obscure Conservative-Unionist federal M.P. from Kingston.' He did not cut an imposing figure; one historian describes him as "a small spare man, with an abrupt and caustic manner and domineering disposition.'" After a career in municipal and provincial politics, Nickle had arrived at the House of Commons as a result of the 19 1 1 Dominion election, part of a general wave of Conservatives replacing Liberals in Ontario. He was a dficult, unpredictable and irascible man. He could not be counted on to follow the party line. In 1914, Nickle opposed legislation that would have continued to guarantee the bonds of the Canadian Northern Railway and thereby save it fiom bankruptcy. Years afterwards, the bitterness of his attack on his own government's ' Napoleon on the awarding of prizes and honours, as cited by Ernest Lapoihe in the NickIe Debate: House of Commons, Debar., 8 April 19 18, p.505. He was born on 3 1 December 1869 to middle-class Scottish Presbyterian parents, and graduated hmKingston Collegiate and Vocational Institute; hesubsequentiy attended Queen's UniversityandOsgoode Hall, He was called to the bar in 1895, and became zt Queen's Counciior in 1898, He served as a Kingston alderman hm1905 to 1909 and as Mayor in 1909, and sat in the Ontario Legislature fiom 1908 to 191 I, Gibson.

In later years, he figwd as a resolute foe of the Ontario Conservative government on the question of the enforcement of the Ontario Temperance Act; Nickle was the son of a distiller, but, perhaps because of his own family's difliculties with alcoholism, a firm advocate of prohibition? He was "not a good Tory," it wodd be later said? On the question of honours and titles, Nickle had passionate convictions. Jumping the gun on his own leader Sir Roberr Borden, who had hoped to deal with the issue circumspectly without a public parliamentary debate, Nickle, perhaps motivated by the difficulties of his ulma rnater in securing titled men to serve on its governing bodies and in its adminishation, stood as a private member to introduce a resolution fiom the House of Commons to Hik Majesty on the question of hereditary titles. That, in the opinion of this House, an Address should be presented to His Most Excellent Majesty the King in the following words: -- To the King's Most Excellent Majesty, Most Gracious Sovereign, -- We, Your Majesty's most duWand loyal subjects, the House of Commons of Canada in Parliament assembled, humbly approach Your Majesty praying that your Majesty hereafter may be graciously pleased to refiain fkom conferring any hereditary titles upon Your subjects domiciled or living in Canada, or any title or honour that will be held or can be used by, or which will confer any title or honour upon any person other than the person in recognition of whose services the honour or title has been conferred- All of which we humbly pray You.Majesty to take into Your favorable and "SeeNationat ArchivesofCmada mNACJ,MG 26 I, Meighen Papers, p.6?269, RH, Smith to Arthur Meipjm, 6November lE6- See Peter Oliver, Howard Fergrrson- Ontario Tory Voronto: University ofloronto Press, 1977)- p.

PREFACE The committee in charge of the publication of this pamphlet, in per- forming their duty, exceedingly regret that the delay has rendered it im- possible to furnish the "Guardian's" account of Truro's eventful Natal Day, as well as to give the address delivered by F. A. Ljaurence, Esq., Q. C, on the memorable occasion, published in September or October, 1882, in that newspaper. After much diligent inquiry for the missing num- bers of the "Guardian," by advertisement and otherwise, they are not forthcoming. If not discovered in time for the present publication the committee hope that the matter of a supplementary nature in the form of an appendix, will be found of sufficient historical importance to, in some measure, compensate for that which has been lost.

  • Canadian Soldiers in Bermuda During World War One
    Canadian Soldiers in Bermuda During World War One Jean-Pierre Gagnon* Three Canadian infantry battalions served in Bermuda during the First World War. Very little is known about their presence in these islands. The raison d'être ofthis article is to provide a better knowledge ofthis first Canadian garrison duty abroad. The author analyzes the selection ofthe units which were sent to Bermuda and studies and compares themfrom different points ofview. Then, he examines their stay, emphasizing the social aspects of their garrison duty. The Canadians' reaction toward it and the reciprocal feelings ofthe soldiers and the Bermudians are considered. Trois bataillons d'infanterie canadiens ont servi aux Bermudes pendant la Première Guerre mondiale. On ne sait à peu près rien de leur passage là-bas. Cet article vise à combler cette lacune. L'auteur explique le choix des unités envoyées en garnison dans ces îles de l'océan Atlantique, puis les étudie et les compare à divers points de vue. Il s'attache ensuite à leur séjour, en mettant en relief le côté humain des choses. La réaction des Canadiens à l'égard de ce service de garnison et les sentiments réciproques des soldats et des Bermudiens sont considérés. The presence of three infantry battalions of the Canadian Expeditionary Force (CEF) in Bermuda during the First World War has not excited the attention ofCanadian historians. They have been indifferent to this "humiliat­ ing garrison dUty",1 focussing instead on Canada's participation in military operations in Europe. Bermudian historians seem to have adopted a similar attitude, simply ignoring or scarcely mentioning the presence of Canadian troops in the islands at that time.

  • Introduction
    backhouse 02text (xi-322) 4/22/04 4:06 PM Page 3 INTRODUCTION Y about to meet Mrs. Elizabeth Bethune Campbell, a woman of formidable intellect, wit, and sarcasm, with the determination of steel. Her book, Where Angels Fear to Tread, written in and self- published in from her home in the rectory of St. John’s Episcopalian Church in Jamaica Plain, Boston, raised considerable controversy when it first appeared. Mrs. Campbell’s fascinating entan- glement with the law spanned fourteen years. It began in , when she first came across an unsigned copy of her mother’s will while sort- ing through musty family trunks. The saga peaked in , when Mrs. Campbell appeared on her own behalf to argue her case in front of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in London. The legal battle finally ended in , when the Ontario Court of Appeal issued its last decision on the matter of costs relating to the complex web of litiga- tion spawned by Mrs. Campbell’s inheritance. The story that Mrs. Campbell tells is extraordinary, and not only because she appears to have been the first woman to argue in front of the Law Lords at the Privy Council. Mrs. Campbell’s description of the barriers she surmounted before emerging victorious in England unveils the intricate, multilayered world of overlapping intrigue and influence that constituted the early-twentieth-century Ontario legal system. From her unique vantage point as both an insider and an out- sider, she comments on the actions of lawyers and judges with acuity and perspicacity. Others might have thought as she did.

As such, besides examining the lives of prime ministers and other elites, we will also analyse, for example, what things were like for ordinary people; besides focussing upon the French-English divide, we will also look at issues revolving around gender roles and Canada’s First Peoples; and besides noting cultural expressions such as "high art," we will also touch upon things such as various forms of popular entertainment. The general story will come from the lectures. However, your outline will refer to chapters from the Francis, Smith and Jones texts, Journeys. You should read these, especially if parts of the lecture remain unclear. The textbook will provide background; it will not replicate the lectures. Required readings will consist of a series of primary source documents. The lectures will refer to many of those documents, suggesting how they might be understood in relation to the general flow of events. Thus, on the mid-term test and final examination, you should be able to utilize the required readings and the lecture material in responding to questions.
