Toronto Has No History!’
‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s. -

Information Session #3: Causes of Discontent in Upper Canada I
Information Session #3: Causes of Discontent in Upper Canada I. Causes of Discontent A. The Way The Colony Was Governed - we talked about this before(see notes) - since councils and governor were not chosen and elected by the people, they could do whatever they wanted- often ignored the people B. The People Who Ruled The Colony - the problem was that people on councils always chosen from among the wealthy and influential people of the colony - included judges, clergy, bankers, lawyers, military officers, business people - most were from Loyalist Families - close friends- the colonist nicknamed them he Family Compact- belonged to high social class - thought because they were wealthy and better educated, they could govern colony more effectively than ordinary people - governor usually selected all officials Sir Francis Bond Head- immigration officers, coroners, sheriffs, etc. - gave land grants - spent money to reward faithful supporters - farmers and poor were not included - John Strachan - one of the most powerful - Bishop of Toronto - he thought Anglican Church should have special privileges - only Anglican clergy allowed to perform marriages - he did do some good - John Beverley Robinson - Chief justice things to - education - lawyer - he was head of all law courts - elected representatives had no say as long as Family Compact was around C. The Problem of Land - land granted to settlers unfairly - most of land had once belonged to Native peoples - Sir Francis Bond Head was governor - 1836- convinced some Native Peoples to move to reservations in Georgian Bay- best land given to Family Compact and Friends - as a result less than 1/10 of land producing crops - most of good land owned by people who weren’t Farming it - waiting for value to increase so they could sell it - 1/17 f land given to Anglican Church (Clergy Reserves) - people said not fair to other Churches - biggest complaint - land left uncleared for years - poorer land given to new immigrants - no roads could be built through reserves D. -

Pauper Emigration to Upper Canada in the 1830S*
Pauper Emigration to Upper Canada in the 1830s* by Rainer BAEHRE ** Pauper emigration to the Canadas peaked in the 1830s during the very period in which public concern over poor relief reached a climax in Great Britain. 1 In the mother country "the figure of the pauper, almost forgotten since, dominated a discussion the imprint of which was as powerful as that of the most spectacular events in history". 2 So argues Karl Polanyi. Yet, in general histories of Upper Canada the pauper is referred to only in passing. 3 Could it be that the pauper's role in Upper Canada was larger than has hitherto been assumed? As this appears to be the case this paper will examine how the problem of British pauperism was transported to the colony in the important decade before the Rebellion. I The early decades of the nineteenth century witnessed growing po litical, economic and social turmoil in Great Britain. The general crisis heightened in the late 1820s, aggravated by a combination of fluctuating markets, overpopulation, enclosure, poor harvests, the displacement of * I would like to thank Professors Peter N. Oliver, H. Vivian Nelles, and Leo A. Johnson for their helpful comments on an earlier version of this paper. Also special thanks to Stan Pollin, Greg Theobald, Faye Mcintosh and John Keyes.

An Abstract of “To Excite the Feelings of Noble Patriots:” Emotion, Public Gatherings, and Mackenzie’s American Rebellion, 1837-1842 by Joshua M. Steedman Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy Degree in History The University of Toledo August 2019 This dissertation is a cultural history of the American reaction to the Upper Canadian Rebellion and the Patriot War. This project is based on an analysis of newspaper articles published by William Lyon Mackenzie and his contemporaries, diplomatic cables between Washington D.C. and London, letters, and accounts of celebrations, toasts, and public meetings which occurred between 1837 and 1842. I argue Americans and Upper Canadians in the Great Lakes region made up a culture area. By re-engaging in a battle with the British, Upper Canadians, and their American supporters sought redemption. Reacting to geographic isolation from major metropolitan areas and a looming psychic crisis motivated many of these individuals to act. -
Sewage Treatment.Drnicholas Cambridge.02.03.2017.Corrected
Sewage Treatment In 1848 Croydon had been described as “the worst district in the county from a sanitary point of view, with no sewers at all.” 1 Cesspools generally prevailed, and the house sullage was thrown into the streets. Foul ditches, open drains and stagnant ponds abounded, including Scarbrook and Lauds’ ponds, which received much of the town’s drainage. These ponds were especially offensive and injurious to health and their exhalations, it was said, gave rise to epidemics. 2 In 1848 a Health of Towns report had examined the water supply, town drainage, burials and roads. It was noted that the water supply was abundant but “the springs are nearly all contaminated, the water tainted, privies erected close to the wells in which the ‘soil’ percolates and with the water rendered impure, the sufferer has no remedy.” 3 Despite all the filth and risk of disease, the effort to bring some elementary measure of sanitary reform in nineteenth-century Britain was resisted both in the House of Commons and by the Local Authorities. This was an issue that touched private property in every city in the country, and the vast body of affected interests stood firm against the handful of reformers. 4 However, when news came that a fresh wave of cholera 5 was sweeping into Europe from the East, this provided Edwin Chadwick 6 with a cruel and uncompromising ally. In 1848 the Public Health Act was finally passed and a Central Commission established, called the General Board of Health, which consisted of a Chairman and two 1 Report of the Sub-Committee of Towns (Health of Towns Association) , 1848, p.6. -
