For the Good of Franco-Ontarians: Le Droit's Editorials, 1913-1933 Mario R. Gravelle a Dissertation Submitted to the Faculty O FOR THE GOOD OF FRANCO-ONTARIANS: LE DROIT’S EDITORIALS, 1913-1933 MARIO R. GRAVELLE 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 HISTORY YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO MAY 2018 © Mario R. Gravelle, 2018 ABSTRACT In 1912 the Ontario government tabled Regulation 17 to severely limit teaching in French in provincial schools. Franco-Ontarians launched the newspaper Le Droit in March, 1913 to defeat the measure and protect minority language rights. The Oblats de Marie Immaculée, an Ottawa-based Catholic missionary order, provided operational support as it was also expected to act as a “bonne presse” encouraging social Catholicism. A content analysis of editorials from 1913 to 1933 reveals several changes that positioned Le Droit to remain in print after defeating Regulation 17 and the departure of the Oblates. In brief, in Le Droit’s initial years it offered a healthy amount of editorial content devoted to fighting Regulation 17, combatting assimilationist threats, and encouraging readers to live according to Catholic doctrine. However, by the late 1910s it diversified its content by paying less and less attention to religious matters while significantly limiting pieces about Regulation 17 and other assimilationist threats. The early half of the 1920s also saw the daily introduce content for readers in Quebec, challenging its initial aim of serving Franco-Ontarians exclusively. Archival material about Le Droit’s operations reveals the factors that encouraged its transformation. Financial pressures were a leading reason for seeking to diversify the daily’s editorials. Adopting the “bonne entente” strategy to protecting Franco-Ontarian rights likewise influenced the type of material it published. In short, embracing this strategy meant Le Droit printed an increasing number of pieces promoting a proactive approach to surviving instead of editorials assailing assimilationist threats. What emerges from this exploration is a glimpse into the mindset of Franco-Ontarian lay and clerical leaders. Their decision-making was not hampered by needing to remain wedded to their initial intentions or strategies. They instead adopted very practical solutions to internal and external challenges they faced. The evidence also shows that the unique, and often changing, circumstances and conditions in Ontario significantly impacted what opportunities could be used to ensure Le Droit remained relevant and in print. The pragmatism they demonstrated in guiding the daily’s editorial policies not only kept the daily on newsstands but was paramount in the fight to ensure the minority’s survival. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The journey to completing a doctoral dissertation can be quite linear and, in theory, simple: upon finishing a B.A. and an M.A., a student gains entrance to a doctoral program where they take about two years to complete their coursework and comprehensive exams. Once those hurdles are cleared, a year or two is spent doing primary research followed by a couple of years writing. The budding scholar is now ready to defend and, after a few final tweaks, submit his/her dissertation to the School of Graduate studies for final processing. Voila! You are now done and “Ph.D.” appears next to your name. I envy those who had this type of “best case” scenario, wrapping up the entire process from undergraduate to doctoral completion in a decade or so. My own journey was certainly very uncommon as it was laced with several stops/starts over more than two decades. My dream of being a historian has taken me from Montreal to Ottawa followed by Hamilton and then to Toronto. Along the way I took classes at six universities. Such a protracted, challenging process would not have been possible without the inspiration of others, a ton of encouragement and, of course, a lot of assistance. Réal Tremblay, my history teacher in Grade 11 at École secondaire Des Source, is responsible for starting me along this journey. His passionate teaching style and the care he took to ensure I succeeded early on set the stage for the path I took. Claude Bélanger from Marionapolis College nurtured my love of history, while the faculty of the history department at Concordia University sparked my interest in “doing history”. Graham Carr and Shannon McSheffrey, amongst others, exposed me to the art of historical writing. Michael Piva, Nicole St.-Onge, Brian Villa, and Jean-Pierre Wallot at the University of Ottawa fuelled my passion and provided much support as I prepared for doctoral studies. Once at York University I had the pleasure of attending wonderful seminars under the tutelage of inspiring and stimulating professors. Chris Armstrong, H. Viv Nelles, and Peter Oliver were especially insightful during this stage of the process. Completing a doctoral dissertation is impossible without the help and guidance of dedicated committee members. Marcel Martel and Roberto Perin were unbelievable patient along the writing process. Their insights were priceless. Un gros merçi à vous deux ! What can I say about Yves Frenette that would do justice to the role he played in getting me to the finish line? His encouragement and kindness over almost 15 years were simply invaluable. Getting to this point would not have been possible without his wise counsel and support. Yves, I will be forever grateful to you for not giving up on me and for steering me along such a difficult but rewarding path. I would be remised to not recognize those closest to me for their love, support and patience throughout this unbelievable journey. Thank you to my sisters, Josée and Sandra, and to my parents, Claude and Paulette. I hope to have made you proud. Lastly, the biggest thank you goes to Lori. We met when I was just beginning the primary research. A decade has passed. In all this time you sustained my dream and would not allow me to walk away from what I had started. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Voila ! Mario R.

  • Language Guarantees and the Power to Amend the Canadian Constitution
    Language Guarantees and the Power to Amend the Canadian Constitution Armand L. C. de Mestral and William Fraiberg * Introduction An official language may be defined as one ordained by law to be used in the public institutions of a state; more particularly in its legislature and laws, its courts, its public administration and its public schools.1 In Canada, while language rights have historically been an issue of controversy, only a partial provision for official languages as above defined is to be found in the basic constitutional Acts. The British North America Act, in sec. 133,2 gives limited re- cognition to both Engish and French in the courts, laws, and legis- latures of Canada and Quebec. With the possible exception of Quebec, the Provinces would appear to have virtually unlimited freedom to legislate with respect to language in all spheres of public activity within their jurisdiction. English is the "official" language of Mani- toba by statute 3 and is the language of the courts of Ontario.4 While Alberta and Saskatchewan have regu'ated the language of their schools,5 they have not done so with respect to their courts and • Of the Editorial Board, McGill Law Journal; lately third law students. 'The distinction between an official language and that used in private dis- course is clearly drawn by the Belgian Constitution: Art. 23. "The use of the language spoken in Belgium is optional. This matter may be regulated only by law and only for acts of public authority and for judicial proceedings." Peaslee, A. J., Constitutions of Nations, Concord, Rumford Press, 1950, p.
