The Toronto Conservatory of Music, founded by the late Dr. Edward Fisher in 1886, and opened to the public in Septem- ber, 1887, may justly claim the honor of being the pioneer institu- tion of its kind in the Dominion of Canada. The name "Con- servatory" had been used by several institutions prior to 1886. These, however, possessed none of the distinctive features of a genuine Conservatory of Music in the sense in which that term is understood in some older countries. The objects of the Conservatory, as stated in its charter, are manifold, but of chief public interest are the following: To furnish instruction in all branches of the Art and Science of Music, Voice Culture and Expression, and to furnish instruction in such other subjects as may be considered necessary for the fullest development of the students' mental and physical faculties preparatory to their pursuing music as a pro- fession, with full power to acquire and hold by lease, purchase or otherwise all lands, buildings, real and personal property, instruments and appliances, patents, systems, licenses, rights or privileges necessary for the thorough equipment and maintenance of a Conservatory of Music, or 'beneficial directly or indirectly thereto; to furnish board and lodging for teachers, students and other persons in any way connected with the said Conservatory of Music, and to exercise all such powers as may be calculated to advance musical culture and appreciation.

On October 7th of that year a Royal proclamation introduced the law of England, both civil and criminal, into the whole of the ceded territor\-, and formed the Eastern portion of it into the Province of Quebec. The Governor of the new colony received power and direction "so soon as the state and circumstances of the colony would admit thereof, to summon and call a General Assembly", but, until this was done, the Gover- nor and Council were invested with "authority to make such rules and regulations as should appear to be necessan.' for the peace, order and good government of the Province". In 1774 the Quebec Act (14 Geo.

  • Perspectives on Indigenous People and Settler Folk in Northern Ontario
    PERSPECTIVES ON INDIGENOUS PEOPLE AND SETTLER FOLK IN NORTHERN ONTARIO Le Canada ou Nouvelle France The Indigenous People of the “New World,” as our European forebears called it, have been living in the Western Hemisphere for at least 15,000 years. They arrived before the last glacial period ended some 10,000 years ago, and they have lived here through the Holocene Period. During these millennia, they became so grounded here that they came to see Turtle Island as the place of their origin. These facts mean that the five hundred years of their experience with European immigrants represents only a small part of their history. Some recognition of this reality and some very useful maps are to be found in Michel S. Beaulieu and Chris Southcott, North of Superior: An Illustrated History of Northwestern Ontario (Toronto: James Lorimer & Company Ltd., 2010), 12-21. The rest of this book touches on the periods mentioned below. A detailed study of the latter part of the first period, the entire second period, and some of the third period is provided by W. Robert Wightman and Nancy M. Wightman, The Land Between: Northwestern Ontario Resource Development, 1800 to the 1990s (Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 1997). We do well to recognize at least three periods of history since Europeans arrived on our continent. The first period encompassed many challenges for Indigenous People, including the infectious diseases that killed so many and 1 decimated whole communities. To say that no one knew the cause of these epidemics does not lessen the horror that it represented.

  • Acter More Attractive Than That of Thomas Moss. Mr. Read
    CHIEF JUtiTICE THOMAS MOSS. 105 The author of " The Irishman in Canada " finds no char­ acter more attractive than that of Thomas Moss. Mr. Read, in his LiA-es, as he sketches his brilliant but brief career, "feels a poignant sorrow for the loss of so many friends." ... "It is not, hoAvever," he Avrites, '' within the compass of the Avork I have in hand to compose an elegy; even had I the ability to make elegiac verse or poetic measure, I Avould not indulge the senti­ ment. This is a prosaic, not a poetic age. It is well to conform to the condition of things as we find them." In his school and university AIoss Avas always primus, carrying off many prizes and medals. At Osgoode Hall he was successively Examiner, Lecturer and Bencher. He Avas devoted to his alma mater, and was tAvice elected Vice-Chancellor, while EdAvard Blake Avas the Chancellor. At the Bar he soon won his way and generally had a sheaf of briefs. He was twice elected to the Dominion Parliament by the citizens of Toronto, among whom his boyhood had been spent. The high character and cul­ tivation of other Canadian Judges are referred to in this volume, but none of them Avill lia\'e a more lasting fame, or be more dear to the intelligent Canadian, than Thomas AIoss. On the day folloAving his decease. Air. Justice Burton, sitting in the Court over Avhich the late Chief had presided, paid a touching tribute to his memory, saying in part, " His loss is too recent, and my appreciation of it too keen to permit me to make more than a passing reference to his personal and social qualities.

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.
