Ib History of the Americas Confederation –Canada 1867 Study Guide IB HISTORY OF THE AMERICAS CONFEDERATION –CANADA 1867 STUDY GUIDE Guiding Question: How does one define Nationhood? Key Terms Upper Canada Clear Grit Party Great Coalition Lower Canada Canadian Parti rouge Charlottetown Conference Canada East Bytown (Ottawa) Quebec Conference Canada West “Rep by pop” Intercolonial Railway Act of Union George-Étienne Cartier 72 Resolutions responsible government Reciprocity Treaty Leonard Tilley Annexation Movement Grand Trunk Railway Charles Tupper John A. Macdonald Common School Act Fenians Conservative Party Trent affair London Conference George Brown St. Alban’s raid A Mari Usque Ad Mare Study Questions 1. What were the main sources of political discontent in Upper and Lower Canada in the years between 1820 and mid- century? To what degree did British North Americans in the Maritimes share those grievances? 2. Did the rebellions of 1837 succeed or fail in their objectives? Explain the short- and long-term effect of the rebellion. 3. In his works on the political deadlocks in the 1850s and 1860s, Paul G. Cornell has argued that the Great Coalition of 1864 was “the main spring of the Confederation movement.” How valid is this common assessment? To what extent does it ignore the role of the Maritimers in the coming of the union? 4. It is often argued that Britain showed “apparent indifference” to British North America's fate in the early 1860s. Did Britain aid the Confederation movement? If so, how? 5. In 1865 George-Étienne Cartier claimed that the British North American colonies faced a choice between Confederation or absorption into the American union. How valid or, indeed, accurate was this claim? 6. “The great majority of nations have been formed, not by people who desired intensely to live together, but rather by people who could not live separately.” Assess this statement made by French-Canadian historian Jean Charles Bonenfant (1966). To what extent does the analysis apply to French Canadians in the 1860s? To Maritimers and Upper Canadians at that time? 7. What kind of federal system did the Fathers of the Confederation create at the Conferences of the 1860s? Why did it evolve into a federal as opposed to a legislative union? 8. To what extent were the Quebec Resolutions and the plan of federal union “imposed” upon the people of the various British North American colonies? 9. Compare the Canadian and American systems of government. How were regional, state, or provincial interests protected in the two federal systems? 10. To what extent did the American Constitution and the British North America Act embrace the notion of “perpetual union”? How flexible were the two federal systems? A.

RESPECTED SIR,-In the ministerial explanations which you gave last June, in your place in Parliament, as to the occasion of that crisis, you were reported to have said that a settlement was to be sought for our constitutional perplexities, " in the well understood principles of Confederation." You will, I am assured from all that is reported of your character, excuse a plain man, wholly out of politics himself (except in so far as every subject of the Queen and spectator of events Inay be said to be interested), for addressing you a few words of commentary on your own text. In justice to what may seem crude or impractical in my style or opinions, I may be permitted to introduce myself as one who has formerly had a good deal of commerce with the world; which lay, howeve~, more with the past generation than the present; whose notions may therefore be open to the imputation of old-fash- 6 ioned, but who has not, if he knows his own heart , lost anything of his early hatred of all oppression, or his early enthusiasm for the happiness and good government of all mankind.

  • Overview of Simulation
    Overview of Simulation Critical As representatives of a British North American colony at a hypothetical 1864 Ottawa Challenge Conference, students decide whether or not to join a proposed Canadian Confederation under the conditions outlined in a draft British North America Act which they have helped to negotiate. Synopsis This 8 - 13 hour simulation can be used as the cornerstone for an entire unit of study on Confederation. Students are assigned to one of six groups, each representing a British North American colony at the time of Confederation. They simulate the negotiations that led to Confederation by participating in a fictitious Ottawa Conference held in 1864. The simulation unfolds in five stages as summarized in the following chart Orientation In the introductory lesson students begin to think about the terms (1.5 - 2.5 hours) of Confederation by considering current difficulties facing Canada and by discussing the idea of re-visiting the original terms of the union of Canada. Students are introduced to the main tasks of the simulation and assigned to represent one of the six colonies that will take part in the conference. Preliminary Based on supplied briefing sheets and independent library research, Proposals each delegation composes a preliminary list of conditions, with (3 - 6 hours) accompanying justifications, for joining the proposed federal union. Students explain and defend their preliminary proposal in a writ- ten submission and a five-minute rehearsed presentation. Other delegations ask the presenting colony one question about a perti- nent issue. Final Each delegation discusses the preliminary proposals from the other Proposals colonies. Individual representatives become experts on one other (2 - 3 hours) colony and then brief fellow delegates on that colony’s needs and issues.

Find it at historymuseum.ca/teachers-zone/stories-of-confederation. Act of Union, 1840 Passed by the British Parliament in July 1840 and proclaimed in February 1841, the Act of Union brought Upper and Lower Canada (present-day Ontario and Quebec) together under a single assembly and government, as recommended in the Durham Report. The two were now called the United Province of Canada, and were subdivided into Canada West and Canada East. Each region received an equal number of seats in the assembly; English became the sole official language. British Empire The term British Empire refers collectively to Britain’s overseas territories and colonies. At its height in the late 1800s and early 1900s, the British Empire spanned the globe, and came to be known as “the empire on which the sun never sets.” Britain supported Confederation because it believed that a single dominion would be easier to defend, and less costly to administer, than several small, separate colonies. British North America British North America refers collectively to the British colonies and territories of northern North America. The term was used mostly between 1783 and 1867, but it has a longer history. British North America The British North America Act was a law passed by the British Parliament Act, 1867 to create the Dominion of Canada as a domestically self-governing federation. The Act divided law-making powers between one federal parliament and several provincial legislatures, and it outlined the structure and operations of both levels of government.
