Thesis Title Goes Here Including Women: The Establishment and Integration of Canadian Women’s History into Toronto Ontario Classrooms 1968-1993 by Rose Fine-Meyer A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Rose Fine-Meyer 2012 Including Women: The Establishment and Integration of Canadian Women’s History into Toronto Ontario Classrooms 1968-1993 Rose Fine-Meyer Doctor of Philosophy Department of Theory and Policy Studies in Education Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2012 Abstract Social movement activism throughout the 1960s and 1970s provided space for feminist concerns in a variety of arenas. Women's movement activism and women's scholarship in history challenged the ways in which women’s experiences had been marginalized or omitted in school history programs and curricula. Women's organizations developed and broadened networks, created and published resources, and lobbied governments and institutions. Their widespread activism spilled into a range of educational circles and influenced history teachers in altering curricula to include women in course materials. Advocating for women, on a curricular or professional development level, however, was complicated because of entrenched neo-liberal systems in place within education institutions. Although the Ontario Ministry of Education and the Toronto Board of Education demonstrated clear support for a wide range of gender equity- ii based initiatives, they committed to implementing a 'piecemeal' approach to curricular change. The fundamental work to include women in history curricula relied heavily on grassroots networks that allowed for women’s experiences to leak into classrooms, and were responsible for bringing women’s voices into the history curricula. This study explores the initiatives of the Toronto Board of Education from 1968-1993, with particular analysis of women’s committees, teacher/librarians in resource centers, Affirmative Action representatives, individual teachers and administrators. Within the broader public sphere, the contributions of concerned parents, activists, small independent publishers, educational reformers, political leaders and women’s history organizations lent their voices to ideas about how the inclusion of women in history curricula should take shape in Toronto schools. Ministry gender equity policies and history course guidelines provided incremental and therefore politically safe responses to educational change. The Toronto Board's "add-on" approach to including women in course examinations avoided instituting major "top-down'" curricular change, which kept the integration of women’s history within classrooms on the periphery of most course work. The substantive grassroots activism and the commitment of women’s organizations and individual teachers, however, allowed women’s history to flourish within individual classrooms in Toronto and demonstrates the ways in which "bottom-up" initiatives can be a powerful force in curricular change. iii Acknowledgments The researching and writing of a dissertation is a long and challenging task and involves the support and direction of many people. I am therefore extremely grateful for the important contributions of many people who helped me along the way. First and foremost, Ruth Sandwell, who directed me to the topic of examining women’s history curricula in classrooms and whose support has been central to the completion of this project. Her ongoing encouragement, enthusiasm and critical questioning gave my work a clear focus and made me a better historian. Harold Troper’s enthusiasm, good humour and support and Cecilia Morgan’s careful editing and brilliant suggestions provided much needed guidance, knowledge and direction. Nina Bascia’s belief in my scholarship and academic work, and her constant support has been crucial to my completion of this project. I am forever grateful to her for a room with a view and the opportunity to teach. Lorna McLean's comments and suggestions provided important points for me to consider and reinforced my belief in the importance of my project. The Department of History and Philosophy in Theory and Policy Studies has provided a unique opportunity for me to engage in the study of history education. The historians, those on my committee, and as well as David Levine and others, have allowed me to engage in a depth of scholarship that has given me the confidence to research, publish and present papers at conferences. Chair Eric Bredo provided additional support. I also wish to thank the numerous and supportive participants in this study who were most generous of their time and resource materials. The teachers, publishers and members of a wide range of history communities were all willing to share their experiences and resources and I am grateful for their generosity and support. I especially want to thank Pat Staton who was extremely central to this study, for her unwavering support and use of her exceptional collection of resource materials, and Myra Novogrodsky who generously provided important documents and information that was essential to this project. Both women frequently welcomed me to their homes and provided multiple cups of tea, cookies and resources. I also want to thank Greg McKinnon and Marie Passerino from the Sesquicentennial Museum and Archives of the Toronto District School Board who provided a full year of support, digging through the archives for the files and resource materials that I requested and helping direct my project work. And as well, I want to acknowledge the archival staff of the Toronto iv Archives, the Archives of Ontario, the Canadian Women’s Movement Archives at the University of Ottawa and the University of Toronto Archives. And a special thank you to the librarians and support staff at the OISE Library who were especially helpful in directing my research work. The support and direction I receive by archivists and librarians has been essential to the completion of this project. The support staff in the OISE History and Philosophy Department provided vital support for this project. I especially want to thank Cecilia Cavaliere, Sezan Atacan-Mert and Vesna Bajic. I was helped enormously throughout the years from the wise advice and constant support that I received from Ruth Rogers in the Registrar’s Office. I also wish to acknowledge that this research was generously funded by an Ontario Graduate Scholarship. This project benefited enormously from the guidance of many colleagues and friends. I began as a part-time student and became full-time in 2009. I received important direction and advice from a number of PhD students who were well advanced in their work. I especially want to thank Alison Norman whose encouragement and support has been vital throughout the years. I realize how fortunate I have been in developing important friendships, many with other doctoral students in the programme here at OISE. The friendship of graduate student colleagues is central to one’s ability to overcome hurdles, challenges and disappointments. I especially want to mention Cara Zurzolo, whose understanding and advice has been critical to my ability to cope with the ups and downs of research and writing, and her brilliant daughter Olivia who provided much needed perspective. Finally, I cannot thank enough my dear friend and colleague Kate Zankowicz, whose deep wisdom and tremendous support made this project possible. Her brilliant guidance and generous help reinforced my research and writing, and provided much needed emotional and spiritual guidance; and for that I am deeply indebted. Finally, I could not have completed this project without the support of my family. My dear Aunt Fern Fine whose daily phone calls provided essential encouragement and coping skills. I am grateful to my now deceased parents for a childhood filled with love, uncritical support and unwavering encouragement; their belief in me gave me the strength to try new paths. And my two wonderful sons, Carl and Elliot Meyer, who have been my rocks; encouraging and rewarding me throughout these years. Carl’s wisdom and brilliant accomplishments are an inspiration and Elliot’s daily and dependable strength, responding to my coffee, computer and stress demands, has been life-saving. The boys are my inspiration and I am an extremely proud. I dedicate this dissertation to them. v Table of Contents Abstract ........................................................................................................................................... ii Acknowledgments .......................................................................................................................... iv Table of Contents .......................................................................................................................... vi Chapter 1 "The Times They are 'A- Changin':" Social Change, Women’s History and Curriculum Reform in the 1960s and 1970s Introduction ................................................................................................................................. 1 Historiographies.......................................................................................................................... 20 Chapter 2 "Women's Unique Place?": Ontario Curriculum Policies and History Education ...................................................................................................................................

  • The Four Courts of Sir Lyman Duff
    THE FOUR COURTS OF SIR LYMAN DUFF RICHARD GOSSE* Vancouver I. Introduction. Sir Lyman Poore Duff is the dominating figure in the Supreme Court of Canada's first hundred years. He sat on the court for more than one-third of those years, in the middle period, from 1906 to 1944, participating in nearly 2,000 judgments-and throughout that tenure he was commonly regarded as the court's most able judge. Appointed at forty-one, Duff has been the youngest person ever to have been elevated to the court. Twice his appointment was extended by special Acts of Parliament beyond the mandatory retirement age of seventy-five, a recogni- tion never accorded to any other Canadian judge. From 1933, he sat as Chief Justice, having twice previously-in 1918 and 1924 - almost succeeded to that post, although on those occasions he was not the senior judge. During World War 1, when Borden considered resigning over the conscription issue and recommending to the Governor General that an impartial national figure be called upon to form a government, the person foremost in his mind was Duff, although Sir Lyman had never been elected to public office. After Borden had found that he had the support to continue himself, Duff was invited to join the Cabinet but declined. Mackenzie King con- sidered recommending Duff for appointment as the first Canadian Governor General. Duff undertook several inquiries of national interest for the federal government, of particular significance being the 1931-32 Royal Commission on Transportation, of which he was chairman, and the 1942 investigation into the sending of Canadian troops to Hong Kong, in which he was the sole commissioner .

  • Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate Under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street
    REPORT FOR ACTION Inclusion on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register and Intention to Designate under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act - 100 College Street Date: August 7, 2020 To: Toronto Preservation Board Toronto and East York Community Council From: Senior Manager, Heritage Planning, Urban Design, City Planning Wards: Ward 11 - University-Rosedale SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council state its intention to designate the property at 100 College Street under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act and include the property on the City of Toronto's Heritage Register. The Banting Institute at 100 College Street, is located on the north side of College Street in Toronto's Discovery District, on the southern edge of the Queen's Park/University of Toronto precinct, opposite the MaRS complex and the former Toronto General Hospital. Following the Nobel-Prize winning discovery of insulin as a life- saving treatment for diabetes in 1921-1922, the Banting Institute was commissioned by the University of Toronto to accommodate the provincially-funded Banting and Best Chair of Medical Research. Named for Major Sir Charles Banting, the five-and-a-half storey, Georgian Revival style building was constructed according to the designs of the renowned architectural firm of Darling of Pearson in 1928-1930. The importance of the historic discovery was recently reiterated in UNESCO's 2013 inscription of the discovery of insulin on its 'Memory of the World Register' as "one of the most significant medical discoveries of the twentieth century and … of incalculable value to the world community."1 Following research and evaluation, it has been determined that the property meets Ontario Regulation 9/06, which sets out the criteria prescribed for municipal designation under Part IV, Section 29 of the Ontario Heritage Act, for its design/physical, historical/associative and contextual value.

ABSTRACT Child labours constituted a visible and important element of the urban landscape in late 19th centuq Saint John, New Brunswick. Hundreds of children found employment selling newspapers, taking in sewing. driving teams or working in one of the cityfs numerous factories or retail establishments. Working-class boys and girls went to work because their families needed their earnings to make ends meet and because employers required a cheap and productive workforce. The visibility of urban child labourers and their harsh working conditions attracted the attention of local progressive-minded reformers. These men and women endorsed a collectivist philosophy which downplayed individual rights and stressed the need for state intervention in the private sphere to improve social conditions.

Chief Justice Rinfret had hoped to draw public attention to the Court'snew position throughanotherformalopeningofthebuilding, ora reception, or a dinner. But the government claimed that it could find no funds to cover the expenses; after discussing the matter, the cabinet decided not to ask Parliament for the money because it might give rise to a controversial debate over the Court. Justice Kerwin reported, 'They [the cabinet ministers] decided that they could not ask fora vote in Parliament in theestimates tocoversuchexpensesas they wereafraid that that would give rise to many difficulties, and possibly some unpleasantness." The considerable attention paid to the Supreme Court over the previous few years and the changes in its structure had opened broader debate on aspects of the Court than the federal government was willing to tolerate. The government accordingly avoided making the Court a subject of special attention, even on theimportant occasion of itsindependence. As a result, the Court reverted to a less prominent position in Ottawa, and the status quo ante was confirmed. But the desire to avoid debate about the Court discouraged the possibility of change (and potentially of improvement). The St Laurent and Diefenbaker appointments during the first decade A Decade of Adjustment 197 following termination of appeals showed no apparent recognition of the Court’s new status.
