Although this may seem quite ironic, the purpose of this motion is Mr. Paul Szabo (Mississauga South, Lib.): Mr. Speaker, I am for the House of Commons to spend today reiterating its confidence very pleased to present another income trust broken promise petition in an independent, impartial organization whose neutrality is above at the request of the member for Kelowna—Lake Country.

The petitioners therefore call upon the Conservative minority government, first, to admit that the decision to tax income trusts was We know that free and fair elections are the basis for any based on flawed methodology and incorrect assumptions, as was democracy. In some countries, the people do not have opportunities demonstrated at the finance committee; second, to apologize to those to choose their elected officials democratically.

  • France and the St. Lawrence Mission Villages in War and Peace, 1630-1730
    IN EACH OTHER’S ARMS: FRANCE AND THE ST. LAWRENCE MISSION VILLAGES IN WAR AND PEACE, 1630-1730. by JEAN-FRANÇOIS LOZIER A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Graduate Department of History University of Toronto © Copyright by Jean-François Lozier (2012) In Each Other’s Arms: France and the St. Lawrence Mission Villages in War and Peace, 1630-1730 Jean-François Lozier Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Beginning in the late 1630s, a diversity of Algonquian and Iroquoian peoples established under the auspices of Jesuit and, later, Sulpician missionaries a string of village communities in the St. Lawrence Valley. A diversity of peoples, whom the French lumped under the rubrics of “Algonquins”, “Montagnais”, “Hurons”, “Iroquois”, “Abenakis” and “Loups”, migrated to these villages in the hope of bettering their lives in trying times. This dissertation retraces the formation and the early development of these communities, exploring the entangled influence of armed conflict, diplomacy, kinship, and leadership on migration, community-building, and identity formation. The historiography of the St. Lawrence Valley – the French colonial heartland in North America – has tended to relegate these Aboriginal communities to the margins. Moreover, those scholars who have considered the formation of mission villages have tended to emphasize missionary initiative. Here, these villages are reimagined as a joint creation, the result of intersecting French and Aboriginal desires, needs, and priorities. The significance of these villages as sites of refuge becomes readily apparent, the trajectories of individual communities corresponding with the escalation of conflict or with ii its tense aftermath.

Elle comprend notamment la ville de Val-d’Or. Son nom provient des mots algonquins âpihtô (la moitié) et nipi (eau), et signifie « eau mitoyenne, là où l’eau se rencontre à mi-chemin ». Il renvoie au fait que le lac Abitibi se trouve sur la ligne de partage des eaux entre les bassins hydrographiques du Saint-Laurent et de la baie James. Abitibi désigne également un groupe d’Algonquins établi du côté ontarien du lac Abitibi, à mi-chemin entre les postes de traite de la baie d’Hudson et de l’Outaouais. Dès le XVIIe siècle, le territoire de l’Abitibi a été un lieu privilégié pour la traite des fourrures et le théâtre de rivalités commerciales entre Anglais et Français. La construction du chemin de fer transcontinental au tournant du XXe siècle (1909-1912) permet l’ouverture du territoire et marque le début de la colonisation en Abitibi, étroitement liée à l’exploitation minière et forestière.
