    Toronto Has No History!’

    ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY By Victoria Jane Freeman A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Toronto ©Copyright by Victoria Jane Freeman 2010 ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ ABSTRACT ‘TORONTO HAS NO HISTORY!’ INDIGENEITY, SETTLER COLONIALISM AND HISTORICAL MEMORY IN CANADA’S LARGEST CITY Doctor of Philosophy 2010 Victoria Jane Freeman Graduate Department of History University of Toronto The Indigenous past is largely absent from settler representations of the history of the city of Toronto, Canada. Nineteenth and twentieth century historical chroniclers often downplayed the historic presence of the Mississaugas and their Indigenous predecessors by drawing on doctrines of terra nullius , ignoring the significance of the Toronto Purchase, and changing the city’s foundational story from the establishment of York in 1793 to the incorporation of the City of Toronto in 1834. These chroniclers usually assumed that “real Indians” and urban life were inimical. Often their representations implied that local Indigenous peoples had no significant history and thus the region had little or no history before the arrival of Europeans. Alternatively, narratives of ethical settler indigenization positioned the Indigenous past as the uncivilized starting point in a monological European theory of historical development. i i iii In many civic discourses, the city stood in for the nation as a symbol of its future, and national history stood in for the region’s local history. The national replaced ‘the Indigenous’ in an ideological process that peaked between the 1880s and the 1930s.

    CRTC Public Hearing 2007-5 “Diversity of Voices” September 17, 2007 Presentation of National Campus and Community Radio Association Association nationale des radios étudiantes et communautaires NCRA/ANREC “Conversations in the community are essential to our future. As a global community we face so many challenges in the coming decades that the only way we can attempt to solve our problems is through discussion. That means discussion and debate at a local level, often in a local language. Community means a shared responsibility for our past, our present and, more importantly, our future. For me, successful community radio is still 90% community and 10% radio.” - Leading international development activist Zane Ibrahim, at the CommunityFM conference, Manchester England, March 24, 2007 1. My name is Melissa Kaestner, and I’m the National Coordinator of the National Campus and Community Radio Association. I have worked in radio for 14 years, getting my start in commercial radio in the US in 1993. I found my passion for campus and community radio in 1997 at CHSR FM in Fredericton. From there, I went to Toronto and did a short stint as music director at CHRY FM before moving on to Montreal and then Ottawa to work with the NCRA more than five years ago. Currently, I am a volunteer at CHUO FM in Ottawa. 2. My name is Evan Light and I began volunteering at a small college radio in the woods of New Jersey in 1993 and have been active at CKUT in Montréal since 1995. I am a doctoral candidate in communications at Université du Québec à Montréal where I specialize in independent media and the democratic management of the radio spectrum.
