Rea Department of History University of Manito ba Winnipeg, Manit O ba Peace, Progress and Prosperity: A Biography of the Hon. Walter Scott This thesis is a biography of Walter Scott, fkst Premier of Saskatchewan. He was a populist and had a vision for the new province, the fastest growing province in the Dominion. Agridtural and educational institutions were created to serve this growing population. Walter Scott combined his ability to coilect strong people around hirn with his talent to sense the public mood. Scott was a newspaperman, entrepreneur, land speculator, and distributor of federai Liberal patronage in the North-West before being elected to the House of Commons in 1900. By 1905, Scott became leader of the Saskatchewan Liberal Party and Premier. Contrary to nirrently held beliefs, this thesis argues that the four months between when Scott became Premier and the fïrst election, the govement was neither restructured nor was it rife with patronage. This was a the for carnpaigning. The political machine was built much later. Mer the 1905 election, the Scott government embarked on a program to build the new province's innastructure such as the Legislative Building and the University of Saskatchewan. For Scott and his government, agriculture was the vital component in the fabric of Saskatchewan lie. By including fann leadership in cabinet and creating a political climate founded on agriculture, Walter Scott built a power base that withstood the United Famiers' Movement that unseated govemments in neighbouring provinces. During the First World War, which created a ciimate of social change in Saskatchewan, the Scott Government banned the bar and established female suffrage. This thesis also examines when Walter Scott £kst exhibited signs of mental iliness. His health became a primary focus as he searched for a cure for depression. It will be argued that it was the battle with Rev. Murdock MacKuuion over minority rights in the school system that brought Scott's mental health to the point that he had to resign. Mer his death, the memory of Waiter Scott fided. Yet his Iegacy of democracy, education and agriculture continue until today. The fiuits of Walter Scott's labours continue to be harvested in Saskatchewan but few remernber who planted the original seeds.

He was a populist and had a vision for the new province, the fastest growing province in the Dominion. Agricultural and educationai institutions were created to serve this growing population. Walter Scott combineci his abiiity to collect strong people around him with his talent to sense the public mood. Scott was a newspapennan. entrepreneur, land speculator, and distributor of federal Liberal patronage in the North-West before being elected to the House of Comrnons in 1900. By 1905, Scott became leader of the Saskatchewan Liberal Party and Premier. Contrary to currentiy held beiiefs, this thesis argues that the Scott administration neither restructurai the govemment nor filleci the public service with patronage appointments during the four months between Scott's appointment as Premier and the fkst general election. This was a tirne for campaigning. The po litical machine was built much later. Mer the 1905 election, the Scott government embarked on a program to build the new province's infirastnichtre such as the Legislative Building and the University of Saskatchewan. For Scott and his govemrnent, agriculture was the vital cornponent in the fabnc of Saskatchewan Me. By including fmleadership in cabinet and creating a political climate founded on agriculture, Walter Scott built a power base that withstood the United Farmers' Movement that unseated govemrnents in neighbouring provinces. DuMg the Fint World War, which created a clirnate of social change in Saskatchewan, the Scott Govemment banned the bar and established female sufhge. This thesis dso examines when Walter Scott first exhibited signs of mental illness. His health became a primary focus as he searcheci for a cure for depression. It wiii be argueci that it was the baîtie with Rw.Murdock Mad<ùinon over minority rights in the school system that brought Scott's mental health to the point that he had to resign. After his death, the memory of Walter Scott fded. Yet his legacy of democracy, education and agriculture conthe until today. The hits of Walter Scott's laboun continue to be harvested in Saskatchewan but few remember who planted the original seeds.

  • A THREAT to LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King
    S. Peter Regenstreif A THREAT TO LEADERSHIP: C.A.Dunning and Mackenzie King BY Now mE STORY of the Progressive revolt and its impact on the Canadian national party system during the 1920's is well documented and known. Various studies, from the pioneering effort of W. L. Morton1 over a decade ago to the second volume of the Mackenzie King official biography2 which has recently appeared, have dealt intensively with the social and economic bases of the movement, the attitudes of its leaders to the institutions and practices of national politics, and the behaviour of its representatives once they arrived in Ottawa. Particularly in biographical analyses, 3 a great deal of attention has also been given to the response of the established leaders and parties to this disrupting influence. It is clearly accepted that the roots of the subsequent multi-party situation in Canada can be traced directly to a specific strain of thought and action underlying the Progressivism of that era. At another level, however, the abatement of the Pro~ gressive tide and the manner of its dispersal by the end of the twenties form the basis for an important piece of Canadian political lore: it is the conventional wisdom that, in his masterful handling of the Progressives, Mackenzie King knew exactly where he was going and that, at all times, matters were under his complete control, much as if the other actors in the play were mere marionettes with King the manipu­ lator. His official biographers have demonstrated just how illusory this conception is and there is little to be added to their efforts on this score.

This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Personal Recollections and Civic Responsibilities: Dispute Resolution and the Indian Residential Schools Legacy by Maegan Hough LL.B./B.C.L., McGill University, 2007 B.A. hons, York University, 2004 Supervisory Committee Jeremy Webber, Faculty of Law Supervisor Matt James, Department of Political Science Co-Supervisor iii Abstract Supervisory Committee Jeremy Webber, Faculty of Law Supervisor Matt James, Department of Political Science Co-Supervisor The author attended Independent Assessment Process (IAP) hearings as part of the Indian Residential Schools Settlement Agreement. Her experience in IAP hearings raised questions about our approach, as Canadians, to historical wrongs, especially those, like loss of language and culture, which fall outside of the purview of criminal and tort- law. This thesis explores the legal, social, and political dispute resolution mechanisms available in Canada to address harms as they have been applied to the Indian Residential Schools Legacy. It finds that the approach to date has been limited by the assumptions inherent in those institutions. The author proposes that Canadians, as a society, need to reframe and restart our discussion about harms and reparations using a framework of “responsibility”, and provides some possible mechanisms to begin that discussion.

  • Chapter 5 Emigration & Homesteading in Alberta
    Chapter 5 Emigration & homesteading in Alberta Why would a young family leave beautiful green England for a relatively desolate plain in the middle of nowhere? “Why” is fairly clear. The economic realities of England at the turn of the century can be researched thoroughly by anyone who can read Wikipedia and operate a mouse or track pad. The consolidation of grain mills into larger factories in the late 19th century must have put an end to any of Grampa and Gramma’s dreams for the “good life” in their homeland. This economic reality had converged with the lure of the military, resulting in Grampa going off to fight in the Boer war. Add to that the great interest in the Klondike Gold Rush amongst Britons, which spawned Grampa’s epic trip to Vancouver, ended with his being Shanghaied out of Tacoma and released 6 months later in Ireland. The most significant “push” toward emigration, however, was the large effort being made by Canada to attract British families to develop farming land in Saskatchewan and Alberta at the end of the 19th century. In 2012, during a visit with John (our eldest cousin), in Red Deer AB, he made reference to a comment from Grampa saying that he came to Canada with “Lloyd”. At that point, I had no idea who Lloyd was, but it opened up a whole new area of interest for me. Enter George Exton Lloyd (later Bishop of Saskatchewan). In 1900 he returned to England from a trip to Saskatchewan. In 1902, he wrote a letter to The Times (of London) proposing Western Canada as a good destination for emigration, and he received thousands of replies.

  • The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-39
    THE POLICY OF NEGLECT: THE CANADIAN MILITIA IN THE INTERWAR YEARS, 1919-39 ___________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board ___________________________________________________________ in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY __________________________________________________________ by Britton Wade MacDonald January, 2009 iii © Copyright 2008 by Britton W. MacDonald iv ABSTRACT The Policy of Neglect: The Canadian Militia in the Interwar Years, 1919-1939 Britton W. MacDonald Doctor of Philosophy Temple University, 2008 Dr. Gregory J. W. Urwin The Canadian Militia, since its beginning, has been underfunded and under-supported by the government, no matter which political party was in power. This trend continued throughout the interwar years of 1919 to 1939. During these years, the Militia’s members had to improvise a great deal of the time in their efforts to attain military effectiveness. This included much of their training, which they often funded with their own pay. They created their own training apparatuses, such as mock tanks, so that their preparations had a hint of realism. Officers designed interesting and unique exercises to challenge their personnel. All these actions helped create esprit de corps in the Militia, particularly the half composed of citizen soldiers, the Non- Permanent Active Militia. The regulars, the Permanent Active Militia (or Permanent Force), also relied on their own efforts to improve themselves as soldiers. They found intellectual nourishment in an excellent service journal, the Canadian Defence Quarterly, and British schools. The Militia learned to endure in these years because of all the trials its members faced. The interwar years are important for their impact on how the Canadian Army (as it was known after 1940) would fight the Second World War.

  • MG463 – Helen Evans Reid Fonds
    MG463 – Helen Evans Reid fonds Dates: [196-]-1988 (inclusive) ; 1963-1969 (predominant). Extent: 28 cm of textual records ; 36 photographs ; 6 audio reels Biography: Dr. Helen Evans Reid, former Head of the Medical Publications Department of the Hospital for Sick children in Toronto, is the author of All Silent, All Damned: The Search for Isaac Barr (Toronto: Ryerson Press, 1969. Shortt FE 3242.9 B37R45 1969). Reid spent six years and travelled to various countries to carry out her research on Isaac Montgomery Barr. Although and Anglican minister, Barr, working under the auspices of both the British and Canadian governments, organized a colony of middle class British immigrants to settle in the Lloydminster area. Barr was responsible for all arrangements including transportation, sleeping accommodations, the allotment of homesteads and the supply of foods, equipment, livestock and other homestead items. Since Barr lacked administrative skills, he was blamed for many of the colony’s problems. In fact, he was even accused of absconding with the immigrant’s funds. Reid challenges this negative interpretation of Barr in her sympathetic biography. She portrays Barr as a man with “a vision”. Custodial History: In April – May 1988 Reid decided to deposit her research material in the University of Saskatchewan Library, Special Collections. Scope and Content: The types of materials that Reid gathered to support her thesis are noted in her acknowledgments. She states: “Since the memory of the elderly is keen but capricious and recall tends to telescope time, I have relied, with one notable exception, on personal accounts for opinions, descriptions and anecdotes only.
