Philip Girard* "His whole life was one of continual warfare": John Thomas Bulmer, Lawyer, Librarian and Social Reformer1 On a clear cold day in January, 1899 a ship entered Halifax harbour with a rather unusual cargo. Some 5,000 Doukhobours fleeing persecution in Czarist Russia made a brief stop in the port before proceeding to their ultimate destination in the Canadian West. In spite of the brevity of their stay, a number of Haligonians boarded the vessel to express their good wishes. A lawyer deputed by a workmen's association to address the throng spoke through an interpreter, but his speech did not contain the clichs usually retailed on such occasions. You bring to Canada something more needed in this country than new immigrants - men who will stand by their principles no matter how much suffering it costs them.

Grant The eleven degree-granting institutions in Nova Scotia represent a variety of sys- tems and traditions of academical costume. By 1807, the University of King’s Col- lege (1789), the oldest university in Nova Scotia, borrowed the academical dress of Oxford University,1 while l’Université Sainte-Anne, where the use of cap, toge, and épitoge is comparatively recent, is in the tradition of French and Quebec-based institutions.2 Several schools, including St Mary’s University, St Francis Xavier University, Mount St Vincent University, and the Nova Scotia Agricultural College, follow the rules of the Intercollegiate Code of Academic Costume as developed in the United States in the 1890s.3 Other schools follow the ‘Canadian tradition’ of academical dress that Humphries describes.4 It could be argued, however, that this was, and is, in fact, a trans-Atlantic mi- gration of the British academical tradition.

The treaties did not deal with surrender of lands and resources but in fact recognized Mi’kmaq and Maliseet title and established the rules for what was to be an ongoing relationship between nations.
