    Canadian Templar Newsletter

    The Canadian Templar September 2015 Newsletter News and Report from our Grand Prior I hope you all enjoyed your summer and had a chance to enjoy some time off and relax. Some of the Priories had events during the summer and you can read about them below. On the international front, the next OSMTH Grand Magistral Meeting will be in Cologne, Germany at the end of the month, with a few Canadians attending. One of the agenda items will be the approval of new Regulations and Orders as well as new Statutes. This will bring some greater standardization to our Order. OSMTH has had significant growth in the number of Grand Priories over the last decade; growing from a few predominantly English speaking countries to over 20 multi- lingual countries, each with their own traditions and organizational nuances. With this has come some challenges on our internal governance. Once all is finalized, they will be part of the framework to revise our own Canadian orders. Another challenge of our relatively young organization is the collection and distribution of charitable funds. As has been stated in previous newsletters, our Canadian Revenue Agency is just one of many countries changing laws and making it more difficult for legitimate charities to operate. We Page 1 (OSMTH) have been waiting on the European Union to show some guidance on how they were going to tackle this similar issue. One would think this an easier task to have the EU show leadership to the rest of the world, but apparently not. At the end of last year, the 28 Member States of the EU failed to agree a consensus on moving the draft legislation forward, and the EU Commission and Presidency have therefore now removed the draft law from the EU legislative agenda in 2015.

No excuses^ therefore^for the somewhatfrequent use of the personal pro- 7WU71 in the recital^ need be offered. The account of the later years should^ perhaps^ be more full; but conspicuous hap- penings in these years have been comparatively few. They have been years marked chiefly by sustained interest on the part of the members^ by the excellence of the literaryfeast pro- vided at the meetings^ by the steady maintenance of the spirit offellowship between the members^ and by the atmosphere that this has created and which has been a distinguishing feature of the clubfrom its earliest days to the present time. As the roll of members^ past and present^ shows that resignations were sent in by no less than three hundred and thirty -five of the eight hundredand seventy-seven whose names appear upon the list., it may here be stated by way of expla- nation^ that in a great majority of the cases the reason for resigning was^for one cause or another^ inability to attend the meetings.

As he later said of himself, by that year the practice of law “had almost superseded the thought of politics in his mind, when the repeal of the Missouri compromise aroused him as he had never been before.”1 He and thousands of other Northerners were outraged by the Kansas-Nebraska Act, which threw open to slavery millions of acres that had long been set aside for freedom. That legislation, introduced in January 1854 by Stephen A. Douglas, allowed settlers in western territories to decide for themselves if slavery should exist there; Douglas called this “popular sovereignty.” The statute, as its author predicted, raised “a hell of a storm” because it repealed the 1820 Missouri Compromise, which forbade slavery in the northern portion of the Louisiana Purchase (encompassing what became the states of Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Colorado, Wyoming, and Montana.)2 Indignation swept the Free States, where voters had been relatively indifferent to the slavery issue since the Compromise of 1850.3 “There is a North, thank God,” exclaimed a New England 1 Autobiography written for John Locke Scripps, [ca.
