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 . -
“Everybody Called Her Frank” : The
JOURNAL OF NEW BRUNSWICK STUDIES Issue 2 (2011) “Everybody Called Her Frank”1: The Odyssey of an Early Woman Lawyer in New Brunswick Barry Cahill Abstract In February 1934 Frances Fish was called to the bar of New Brunswick and spent the next forty years practising law in her home town of Newcastle (now City of Miramichi) NB. In 1918 she had been both the first woman to graduate LLB from Dalhousie University and the first woman to be called to the bar of Nova Scotia. Though she initially intended to remain in Halifax, she instead left Nova Scotia almost immediately, abandoning the practice of law altogether. She spent the next fifteen years working as a paralegal in Ottawa and Montreal before returning to New Brunswick and resuming the practice of law. This article is a study of Fish’s career in New Brunswick, framed within the experience of the first women lawyers in Canada, of whom she was the seventh.2 Résumé En février 1934, Frances Fish a été reçue au Barreau du Nouveau-Brunswick. Pendant les quarante années qui ont suivi, elle a pratiqué le droit dans sa ville natale, Newcastle (qui fait maintenant partie de la ville de Miramichi), au Nouveau-Brunswick. En 1918, elle a été la première femme à obtenir un baccalauréat en droit de la Dalhousie University et la première femme reçue au Barreau de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Bien qu’elle avait, au début, l'intention de rester à Halifax, elle a quitté la Nouvelle- Écosse presque immédiatement après ses études, abandonnant complètement la pratique du droit. -

Les Parcs Et Les Lieux Historiques Et Nationaux Au Canada
LES PARCS ET LES LIEUX HISTORIQUES ET NATIONAUX AU CANADA Le monument Madeleine de Verchères Verchères (P.Q.)- AVANT-PROPOS L'eminent homme d'État canadien que fut Joseph Howe disait qu'une "nation sage entretient la fierté nationale et l'amour du pays en rappelant, continuellement les sacrifices et les gloires du passé". A cette jin, on a chargé le Service des pares nationaux de restaurer, de marquer et de désigner par tout le Canada les endroits d'importance historique. Nombre de ces endroits se rattachent à des événements émou vants des premiers temps de notre histoire et comprennent des villages, des portages et des ouvrages indiens. Il y a aussi des postes de traite, français, des ports et des missions, des endroits rappelant les explorations britanniques ainsi que les opérations navales et militaires qui ont marqué le long combat en vue de la possession du Canada. D'autres endroits se rattachent à l'expansion économique, politique et industrielle du pays. On doit aussi rappeler la mémoire d'éminents Canadiens, hommes et femmes, qui ont rendu de précieux services au pays. La Commission des lieux et monuments historiques du Canada, organisme bénévole composé d'éminents historiens de toutes les parties du Canada, conseille le Service des parcs nationaux à cet égard. l'n certain nombre d'endroits importants ont été constitués en parcs historiques nationaux. On a établi, dans la plupart, des musées qui renferment des objets se rapportant à l'histoire de la région. Comme les descriptions données dans la présente brochure sont nécessairement brèves, nous n'avons pu décrire avec exactitude l'endroit précis où se trouvent tous les lieux historiques. -
