  • The Global Irish and Chinese: Migration, Exclusion, and Foreign Relations Among Empires, 1784-1904
    THE GLOBAL IRISH AND CHINESE: MIGRATION, EXCLUSION, AND FOREIGN RELATIONS AMONG EMPIRES, 1784-1904 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By Barry Patrick McCarron, M.A. Washington, DC April 6, 2016 Copyright 2016 by Barry Patrick McCarron All Rights Reserved ii THE GLOBAL IRISH AND CHINESE: MIGRATION, EXCLUSION, AND FOREIGN RELATIONS AMONG EMPIRES, 1784-1904 Barry Patrick McCarron, M.A. Thesis Advisor: Carol A. Benedict, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation is the first study to examine the Irish and Chinese interethnic and interracial dynamic in the United States and the British Empire in Australia and Canada during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Utilizing comparative and transnational perspectives and drawing on multinational and multilingual archival research including Chinese language sources, “The Global Irish and Chinese” argues that Irish immigrants were at the forefront of anti-Chinese movements in Australia, Canada, and the United States during the second half of the nineteenth century. Their rhetoric and actions gave rise to Chinese immigration restriction legislation and caused major friction in the Qing Empire’s foreign relations with the United States and the British Empire. Moreover, Irish immigrants east and west of the Rocky Mountains and on both sides of the Canada-United States border were central to the formation of a transnational white working-class alliance aimed at restricting the flow of Chinese labor into North America. Looking at the intersections of race, class, ethnicity, and gender, this project reveals a complicated history of relations between the Irish and Chinese in Australia, Canada, and the United States, which began in earnest with the mid-nineteenth century gold rushes in California, New South Wales, Victoria, and British Columbia.

  • Parliament of Canada / Parlement Du Canada
    PARLIAMENT OF CANADA / PARLEMENT DU CANADA The Dominion of Canada was created under the provisions of an Act of the Imperial Parliament (30 Victoria, Chapter III) passed in 1867, and formally cited as The British North America Act, 1867. This Act received Royal Assent, March 29th, 1867, and came into effect by virtue of Royal Proclamation, July 1st, 1867. The Constitution Act, 1867, provides: “There shall be one Parliament for Canada, consisting of the Queen, an Upper House styled the Senate, and the House of Commons.” (Clause 17) “There shall be a Session of the Parliament of Canada once at least in every year, so that twelve months shall not intervene between the last Sitting of the Parliament in one Session and its first Sitting in the next Session.” (Section 20) “Every House of Commons shall continue for five years from the Day of the Return of the Writs for choosing the House (subject to be sooner dissolved by the Governor General), and no longer.” (Section 50) “The Governor-General shall, from time to time, in the Queen's name, by instrument under the Great Seal of Canada, summon and call together the House of Commons.” (Section 38) “Either the English or the French language may be used by any person in the Debates of the House of the Parliament of Canada and of the House of the Legislation of Quebec, and both these languages are used in the respective records and Journals of those Houses; and either of those languages may be used by any person or in any Pleading or Process or in issuing from any Court of Canada established under the Constitution Act and in or from all or any of the Courts of Quebec.” (Section 133) “91.

During his term as Manitoba’s fourth Lieutenant-Governor, James Cox Aikins witnessed what was perhaps one of the most formative and dramatic stages of the province’s development. Although much of his life was spent in southern Ontario, finding success within the ranks of the Conservative party, his brief gubernatorial career spanned a transitional period in Manitoba’s history where the last traces of the old Red River era were scraped away and replaced with a commercially aggressive, democratically oriented society.1 This new Manitoba society actively pursued its aspirations and soon became involved in a legendary struggle with the federal government over the disallowance of provincial railway legislation.

  • Paul Kane's Wanderings of an Artist and the Rise of Transcontinental
    I.S. MacLaren Paul Kane’s Wanderings of an Artist and the Rise of Transcontinental Canadian Nationalism Wanderings of an Artist among the Indians of North America (1859) helped make Paul Kane (181-71) a native Canadian, “a founding father of Canadian art” (Royal), and a figure of Canadian nationalism. The solitary wanderer began and ended his travels in Toronto. This was his hometown after immigration from Ireland in about 1819, and again after his travels to upper Lake Huron and Wisconsin in 1845 and to Vancouver Island in 1846-48. It was in Toronto that what were thought to be his most accomplished works came into public possession in 1912, in the collections of the Royal Ontario Museum. They taught generations of southern Ontarians what Indians look like, as Katherine Hale’s romantic poem “Cun-ne-wa-bum” illustrates well. As a father of Canadian art and a hardy early Canadian traveller in a vague tradition rooted in the voyageur, Kane served Canada’s need for heroes before and after Confederation. He is not on record as ever having corrected the sobriquet of “first native artist in Canada,” bestowed on him in 1852 ([Hind], “Provincial” 6; qtd. in Harper, “Ontario” 18 and Painting 115), seven years before his book identified Little York as his “native village” ([vii]), native not being the complicated descriptor that it is in Canada today. The construction of him as a solitary wanderer and yet a symbol of an entire nascent country grew complicated. So too did the aims of his Wanderings. Was it meant to narrate one man’s effort to record

    630 WESTMINSTER AVENUE BALMORAL HALL SCHOOL (FORMER SIR J.A.M. AIKINS HOUSE – “RIVERBEND”) City of Winnipeg Historical Buildings Committee May 1999 630 WESTMINSTER AVENUE BALMORAL HALL SCHOOL (FORMER SIR J.A.M. AIKINS HOUSE – “RIVERBEND”) The home built in 1901 for one of Canada’s leading men, Sir James Albert Manning Aikins, would obviously be special. Aikins chose to locate his mansion just north of what had developed into one of Winnipeg’s most desirable residential districts. The 22-hectare (54-acre) parcel of land known as Armstrong's Point was granted to Captain Joseph Hill by the Hudson's Bay Company in 1848. Hill returned to England in 1853, leaving the wooded land, then known as "Hill's Point," and a small farm cottage (located on present-day West Gate) in the care of his former batsman, Corporal James Armstrong.1 The land was well-known to Red River Settlement residents who took many picnics and excursions to the area. In July 1873 Armstrong, who had not heard from Hill in some time, sold the property to F.E. Cornish, soon to become Winnipeg's first mayor. A year later, Armstrong was dead, but rumours swirled that Hill was still living in London, England, thereby leaving the actual ownership of the land in question. Two Winnipeg businessmen travelled overseas to locate him and buy his land. They succeeded in finding Hill, but he refused to sell. He instead returned to Winnipeg in 1880, then a year later transferred his holding for $28,000 to a local syndicate which quickly subdivided the land.

  • NATION BUILDING: GOTHIC REVIVAL HOUSES in UPPER CANADA and CANADA WEST, C.1830–1867
    NATION BUILDING: GOTHIC REVIVAL HOUSES IN UPPER CANADA AND CANADA WEST, c.1830–1867 JESSICA MACE A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY GRADUATE PROGRAM IN VISUAL ART AND ART HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MARCH 2015 © JESSICA MACE, 2015 ABSTRACT The Gothic Revival is, without question, the most influential architectural movement to have ever come out of England. Its effects on houses, and colonial houses, in particular, however, have been little studied. Nation building: Gothic Revival houses in Upper Canada and Canada West, c.1830–67 examines the Gothic Revival houses built in the English colony of Upper Canada and Canada West prior to Confederation in 1867 in order to contextualize them and to give this category of housing the academic attention it merits. Using the buildings themselves as well as architectural drawings, plans, and archival photographs, this dissertation reveals and contextualizes the houses of pre–Confederation Canada within the broader scope of Western architectural history. The houses are divided into temporal and theoretical categories, examining the chronological spread of the style as well the means by which it was employed; namely, through architects and publications. Beyond formal analysis of the objects themselves, then, the influence of British and American precedents is examined from the mid–eighteenth century through to the late 1860s, as well as the dissemination of these ideas to the colony through a variety of conduits such as architects, publications and popular aesthetic theories. This study also explores the rise of the architectural practice in the colony and the resulting eventual spread of the architectural vocabulary of the Gothic style into vernacular housing.
