INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation. -
Private Bankers in Ontario Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario
HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO by STEPHEN EDWARD mORNING, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University August, 1994 -- -- --- - --------------- DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1994) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario AUTHOR: Stephen Edward Thorning, B.A. (University of Guelph) M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVJSOR: Professor John C. Weaver NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 502 ii ABSTRACT The structure of the Canadian banking system, and the establishment of strong chartered banks at a relatively early stage, have overshadowed banking institutions that operated outside the chartered system. The non-chartered or private banks can be categorized into three groups: the joint stock banks of the 1830s, the urban private bankers who appeared in the 1850s and after, and the small-town private banks of the post-1868 period. AJI three types of private banks were established to fill perceived niches in the chartered bank system. Those of the 1830s possessed an anti-establishment, hinterland bias. The urban private bankers specialized in savings and foreign exchange transactions, and often branched out into insurance, debentures, and ultimately stocks and bonds. The small town private banks began and prospered when the needs of small hinterland communities outpaced the inclination and ability of chartered banks to provide them with banking facilities. Unlike the urban private bankers, those in small towns offered a full range of banking services, and they often acted as insurance and real estate agencies as well. -

A Different Drummer: the Birth of a Province
A different drummer: the birth of a province The John Beckwith-James Reaney operatic collaboration with the rousing title Taptoo! raises many issues both in itself and in connection with the whole vexed question of Canadian-American relations. It raises many issues without attempting to provide solutions. This refusal to supply a neat answer I take to be the opera’s greatest strength. Its open-endedness leaves the audience with the challenge, the obligation to engage more meaningfully, because more imaginatively, with the question of national survival. In an effort to grapple with some of the work’s implications, as I perceive them, I have divided this paper into a number of sections dealing respectively with the genesis and performance history of the opera, a consideration of its themes, a discussion of the biblical and mythological subtexts, and the continuing relevance of the concerns raised throughout. 1. Taptoo! was conceived in a somewhat unusual fashion as a “pre-sequel” or “prequel” to the Harry Somers-James Reaney opera Serinette, first performed in 1990 at the Sharon Temple, north of Torontoi. A few words about that opera would therefore prove helpful. Serinette covers a period in the development of Toronto and surroundings from the end of the War of 1812 to the 1830s, a turbulent era in Upper Canada. The opera presents for the most part real-life figures from that period. For example, David Willson, an American expatriate, who separated from a Quaker group in Toronto to found his own Children of Peace, and to build their place of worship, the wonderful Sharon Temple, a place of light and music. -

John Ralston Saul Speech at the Sharon Temple Citizenship Ceremony
John Ralston Saul Speech at the Sharon Temple Citizenship Ceremony August 14, 2019 We began the day with a land acknowledgment. This is a protocol, a way of opening our public ceremonies all over Canada. These protocols remind us of many things. That there is more to land than simple ownership. There is the power of history and memory. There is the responsibility we all bear. And the respect. The Indigenous peoples give full meaning to that history, memory, responsibility and respect. This Sharon Temple stands at the heart of a rich farming area. And so for thousands of years people here have known that we are held together by our relationship with the land. The land acknowledgment is also a reminder that from the late 16 th century to the mid-19 th , immigrants to Canada were dependent on Indigenous people. Or partners with them. For almost 300 years. A long time. Then, in the mid-19 th century, the newcomers began to betray those relationships. Terrible things were done. Now we are trying to put that relationship back together again. That is part of the history and responsibility you take on as citizens. You must be part of rebuilding that relationship. But 300 years of immigrant dependency and partnership was a long time. And so Indigenous people have had an enormous influence on how Canada was built. On how we do things. They welcomed us into their circles. They taught us that inclusion and diversity were possible. That idea of welcoming newcomers into our circle, so important to Canadian citizenship, we owe to the Indigenous peoples. -
Lawless Lawyers: Indigeneity, Civility, and Violence
ARTICLES Lawless Lawyers: Indigeneity, Civility, and Violence HEATHER DAVIS-FISCH On 8 June 1826, young members of the Family Compact—allegedly disguised as “Indians”—raided William Lyon Mackenzie’s York office, smashing his printing press and throwing his types into Lake Ontario, to protest defamatory editorials. This essay investigates how the cultural memory of “Indian” disguise emerged by asking what this memory reveals about the performative and political dynamics of this protest. At first glance, the performance conventions and disciplinary function of the Types Riot allow it to be compared to folk protest traditions such as “playing Indian” and charivari. However, the Types Riot differed from these popular performances because the participants were members of the provincial elite, not protestors outside of the structures of power. The rioters’ choice of how to perform their “civilized” authority—through an act of lawless law legitimated through citations of “Indigenous” authority—demonstrates inherent contradictions in how power was enacted in Upper Canada. Furthermore, by engaging in a performance that resembled charivari, the rioters called their own civility—attained through education, wealth, and political connections—into question by behaving like peasants. The Types Riot demonstrates that the Family Compact’s claim to authority based on its members’ civility—their superior values, education, and social privilege—was backed by the threat of uncivil violence. The riot revealed a contradiction that the Upper Canadian elite would, no doubt, have preferred remained private: that in the settler-colony, gentlemanly power relied upon the potential for “savage” retribution, cited through the rioters’ “Indian” disguises. Le 8 juin 1826, un groupe de jeunes membres du Pacte de famille—déguisés selon les dires en « Indiens »—ont pillé les bureaux de William Lyon Mackenzie à York, détruit sa presse et jeté ses caisses de caractères typographiques dans le lac Ontario pour signaler leur opposition à des éditoriaux diffa- matoires qu’il a publiés. -

From the first flat can be distinctly seen the G.T.R. bridge at Kingston Mills and the lapping waters of the historic Cataraqui river can be traced from its meeting with the majestic St Lawrence almost to Kingston Mills six miles away. Far down in the township of Pittsburg, as far as the eye can see, can be viewed greenclad slopes extending to so great a distance that their outline is lost in the blue haze of the atmosphere.
