THE INFLUENCE OF POLITICAL LEADERS ON THE PROVINCIAL PERFORMANCE OF THE LIBERAL PARTY IN BRITISH COLUMBIA By Henrik J. von Winthus ABSTRACT This thesis examines the development of Liberalism In British Columbia from the aspect of leader influence. It intends to verify the hypothesis that in the formative period of provincial politics in British Columbia (1871-1941) the average voter was more leader- oriented than party-oriented. The method of inquiry is predominantly historical. In chronological sequence the body of the thesis describes British Columbia's political history from 1871, when the province entered Canadian confederation, to the resignation of premier Thomas Dufferin Pattullo, in 1941. The incision was made at this point, because the following eleven year coalition period would not yield data relevant to the hypothesis. Implicitly, the performance of political leaders has also been evaluated in the light of Aristotelian expectations of the 'zoon politikon'.

The business affairs of one Victoria entrepreneur, Edgar Crow Baker, are used to examine the character of these men, their business endeavours and the society that they lived in. The era of the entrepreneur in British Columbia began with the Fraser River gold rush in 1858. It con• tinued until about the turn of the century, when the era of the corporate entrepreneur was ushered in with the arrival of large corporations from outside the province that began to buy up the smaller local companies.

  • Colonialism, Capitalism, and the Rise of State Schooling in British Columbia, 1849-1900 Trent University
    COLONIALISM, CAPITALISM, AND THE RISE OF STATE SCHOOLING IN BRITISH COLUMBIA, 1849-1900 A Thesis Submitted to the Committee on Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts and Science TRENT UNIVERSITY Peterborough, Ontario, Canada, Anishinaabe Territory © Copyright by Sean Carleton 2016 Canadian Studies Ph.D Graduate Program May 2016 ABSTRACT Colonialism, Capitalism, and the Rise of State Schooling in British Columbia, 1849-1900 Sean Carleton This dissertation examines the historical relationship between settler colonialism, capitalism, and the rise of state schooling in what is now known as British Columbia between 1849 and 1900. It aims to “unsettle” conventional views of Canadian schooling history by bringing accounts of Indigenous and non-Indigenous education into one analytical frame, and it shows how the state used different forms of schooling for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous children—company, common, public, mission, day, boarding, and industrial schools—to assist colonial-capitalist social formation in the Pacific Northwest. In combining interdisciplinary insights from Indigenous studies, historical materialism, political economy, and critical pedagogy, the dissertation highlights the ways in which state-supported schooling facilitated capitalist accumulation by colonial dispossession. The central argument of the dissertation is that between 1849 and 1900, colonial, provincial, and federal governments strategically took on greater responsibility for schooling as a way of legitimizing the state and supporting the emergence of a capitalist settler society. KEYWORDS: Settler Colonialism; Capitalism; Education; Indigenous Peoples; Violence; Indian Residential Schools; History; Political Economy; British Columbia; Canada. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I gratefully acknowledge the funding I received from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) to complete this dissertation.

The work examines his advocacy of temperance and sabbatarianism, his role in Presbyterian church governance, and the relationship between his religious beliefs and his political activities. Furthermore, the analysis of this aspect of the life and career of John Robson suggests that historians need to examine the role played by religion in what has generally been viewed as an essentially secular province.

  • Farr FERNWOOD AREA in 1860 One of The
    Farr FERNWOOD AREA In 1860 one of the coloured immigrants to B.C. from the U.S.A., Louis Stark, landed at Vesu- vius Bay from the schooner Black Diamond. He brought with him his wife Sylvia (the daughter of Howard Estes), his son Willis and a small daughter. He sent an Indian friend to Begg’s Settlement (now Fernwood) to get help to move his belongings to his land claim on Broadwell Mountain. In 1869 the Stark family moved to Fruitvale on the north side of Ganges Harbour, following two mur- ders by hostile Indians of farm helpers who had lived in a cabin on his Broadwell property. (Bea Hamilton) The first schoolteacher on Salt Spring Island was John C. Jones, a graduate of the University of Ohio with a first-class teaching certificate. He taught some 18 children in old sheds or barns until, in 1864, 100 acres were set aside by the government at Central for school and other public purposes. Then Jones taught at the new school and in an old log cabin at Begg’s Settlement, on alternate days. In 1864 there were trails but no road from Begg’s to Vesuvius, where the S.S. Fideliter had begun calling. (Bea Hamilton) E.J. Bittancourt (or Betancourt as it is sometimes spelled) was a pioneer in the Vesuvius area. He opened the original store and post office on the site of the present Vesuvius Inn about 1886. One of his five sons became Brother Francis Joseph Betancourt, O.M.I., usually known as Brother Joe.
