  • The Military Reputation of Major-General James Wolfe
    THE MILITARY REPUTATION OF MAJOR-GENERAL JAMES WOLFE Presidential Address Delivered by E. R. Adair 1936 This is an age when heroes are viewed with a somewhat sceptical eye, when it is felt that mere blind veneration for the reputations of the past should not turn aside the chilly wind of historical criticism, that the legends devised to charm worshippers must be tested by the acid of facts. So far General Wolfe has survived any serious attacks upon his reputation, very largely because he was fortunate enough to die in the moment of victory, a victory moreover that came like a blessed thunderbolt to an England that thought that all hope of it had departed, for, as Horace Walpole aptly says, Wolfe's final despatch couched "in the most artful terms that could be framed" had "left the nation uncertain whether he meant to prepare an excuse for desisting, or to claim the melancholy merit of having sacrificed himself without a prospect of success."(1) But if his reputation has so far survived practically untarnished, it is not because he has been wholly exempt from all the dangers to which dead heroes are exposed. On the one hand he has been rendered at times a little ridiculous, by the praises of his more eulogistic biographers, of whom Beckles Willson is one of the worst,(2) and who have found it necessary to discover even in his earlier years those splendid qualities which they thought it proper for a Hero to possess; that there was no particular authority to justify their views seemed quite immaterial.

  • The German Presence in Quebec City
    The German Presence in the Quebec City Region Researched and compiled by Jacques Gagné [email protected] Last updated: 2016-01-05 1 Map of Quebec City and surrounding area 2 Ursuline Convent and Chapel Quebec City Saint Michael Church Sillery Holy Trinity Church Quebec City 3 The German Presence in the Quebec City Region Researched and compiled by Jacques Gagné [email protected] Last updated: 2016-01-05 Centuries after Hans Bernhard settled in New France, 100,000 people in Québec claim German origins. They may be Francophone descendants of mercenaries in the 18th century or Anglophone immigrants of the 1950s. In the 1980s, after a long period of official downplaying of the presence of the Germans, some German-Canadian leaders fought for recognition of the German contribution to a multicultural Canada. Many German-Quebecers took over this discourse, but some refused the idea of a German ‘founding people’ and insisted on the distinct role of their Francophone society. Furthermore, even in Canada, post-war immigrants had to come to terms with the German past; the victimisation often characterized the German- Canadian press, since readers many, of whom lived in Québec often were expellees of the German ‘eastern territories’ and the few exiles often chose to stay invisible. Thus for its citizens of German heritage, Québec became the place of encounter of several competing identity discourses, whether it was about the role of Francophones in Canadian history or about the role of Germans.

  • Book Reviews Kathleen Winter. Lost in September. Toronto: Alfred A
    Book Reviews Kathleen Winter. Lost in September. Toronto: Alfred A. Knopf Canada, 2017. ISBN 978-0-345-81012-0 Kathleen Winter’s debut novel Annabel, about a gender fluid young person coming of age in Labrador and St. John’s, met with widespread critical acclaim and my own personal admiration, so I was very keen to pick up her next fictional offering, Lost in September. While sharing a focus with its predecessor on the fluidity or ambiguity of identity, Lost is quite a departure from the earlier novel. Winter tells the story of a young man in Quebec in September 2017 who believes himself to be General James Wolfe, the historical figure who fought against Montcalm on the Plains of Abraham. The central premise is Jimmy’s attempt to regain the lost time when Wolfe was to be on leave, but the calendars changed that year from the Julian to the Gregorian, thus eliminating 11 days of September and consequently Wolfe’s leave. It is a compelling premise, demonstrating both the constructedness of time, which we often take for an invariable fact, and the mutability of identity. Winter crafts a modern-day/historical quest narrative, in that the young present-day Wolfe meanders through first Montreal and then Quebec City, encountering various tragic or quite literally co- lourful individuals who guide him on his journey. In addition to the homeless Sophie, with whom he shares a tent on Mont Royal, Jimmy meets historian Genevieve Waugh, who is researching for a book on James Wolfe and who is struck by the young man’s similarity to the historical figure.

  • The Battle of Québec, 1759
    The Battle of Québec, 1759 Concept(s) Primary Source Evidence, Cause and Consequence Prepared for Grade(s) 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 Province NB By Ernest Wasson Time Period(s) 1700-1800 Time allotment 4 x 60 minutes per class period Brief Description of the Task In this unit students interpret, value and interact with primary source evidence as they try and answer why the English won the Battle of Québec in 1759. The attachments include a range of primary and secondary sources: letters, memoirs, historical accounts, paintings, and maps. Objectives for Historical Thinking: Students will be able to to analyze primary sources by considering the source and seeking corroboration; use several primary sources to construct an explanation of a historical event. Required Knowledge & Skills It would be helpful if students were to be given a brief overview of the Seven Years War and introduced to basic military strategy, weaponry, etc. of the era. They might also benefit from an understanding of issues relating to warfare (high ground, advantage to the defender, etc.). The lessons do not assume an understanding of primary and secondary sources, but this too would further student ability to answer the inquiry question. Detailed Instructions 1. As a springboard activity to develop curiosity and model the interpretation of evidence, show students Benjamin West’s The Death of Wolfe (1770) in ATT 2. Explain to students they will be looking at a turning point in Canadian history, the Battle of Québec on September 13, 1759, that led to Britain taking control of Canada from the French.

  • The Fight for Canada
    CLASH OF EMPIRES: THE BRITISH, FRENCH & INDIAN WAR 1754 - 1763 CHAPTER 6 The Fight for Canada )M 1755 To 1760, British, French, and American Indians engaged in some of rgest and most dramatic military operations of the American war. Campaigns ic Canada and the St. Lawrence Valley involved joint operations between and forces, as well as large-scale European-style sieges employing heavy dl tll l y llLL tlplX exenginleering earthworKs. I ie contrast between tnese operations and f the campaigns in the American interior reveal both the remarkable military power that 18th-century empires could project far from Europe and also the limits of that power. The dominance of regular European troops and fleets in these campaigns reinforced the contempt shared by most Europeans toward native and colonial fighters. This perspective shaped profoundly the fate of Britain's American empire after the fall of Canada. DEFENDING NEW FRANCE French settlement in Acadia (now western Nova Scotia, eastern New Brunswick, and northeastern Maine) began in the early 1600s. France ceded Acadian territory to the British in 1713, but by 1750, more than 13,000 French-speaking inhabitants were living along the region's extensive coastline. The boundaries were still in dispute when conflict broke out in the Ohio Country in 1754. Most Acadians living in British territory had remained neutral during previous conflicts, but in 1755, fear of insurgency and desire for the Acadians' lands and fishing grounds led New England and British forces to ruthlessly expel the inhabitants. This ethnic displacement scattered Acadians across the British colonies and the larger Atlantic world.

  • Diagnostic Et Éléments De Vision 2022
    Diagnostic et éléments de vision 2022 Document présenté aux citoyens de Sainte-Pétronille 9 Juin 2012 Par : Conseil municipal de Sainte-Pétronille Avant-propos Au cours des derniers mois, différents événements ont amené les élus à se questionner sur les orientations souhaitées pour notre communauté dans les prochaines décennies. Tout d’abord, la décision rendue en octobre 2011 par la Commission de Protection du Territoire Agricole (CPTAQ) quant aux Ilots déstructurés ajoute des emplacements pour des usages autres qu’agricoles dans certains secteurs de la zone verte de la municipalité. Ensuite, les exigences de la nouvelle Loi sur l’Aménagement et l’Urbanisme ainsi que la volonté du Conseil des maires de la MRC d’harmoniser les règlementations d’urbanisme des 6 municipalités de l’Ile d’Orléans nous invitent à faire le point sur nos grandes orientations. Dans ce contexte, l’exercice de révision de la Vision municipale devient nécessaire. À cette fin, nous respecterons la procédure proposée par le MAMROT – LA VISION STRATÉGIQUE du développement culturel, économique, environnemental et social - Septembre 2005 La démarche comprendra quatre étapes : 1 - Rédaction du diagnostic sans commentaires (Maire et DG) ; 2 - Correction du diagnostic et ajout de commentaires (Élus et Membres de comités) ; 3 - Présentation du diagnostic et consultation populaire (Citoyens de la municipalité) ; 4 - Rédaction de la nouvelle vision municipale. Pour être crédible, la nouvelle vision doit reposer sur une évaluation honnête et critique de la situation actuelle et un bon repérage des défis à venir. Il nous faut répondre aux quatre questions fondamentales suivantes : Où en sommes-nous présentement ? Où allons-nous ? Où voulons-nous aller ? Comment s’y rendre ? Les deux premières questions peuvent être répondues à l’intérieur du diagnostic reflétant la situation actuelle de notre territoire.
