TRURO, N. S. Printed by Doane Bros., 1894. PREFACE The committee in charge of the publication of this pamphlet, in per- forming their duty, exceedingly regret that the delay has rendered it im- possible to furnish the "Guardian's" account of Truro's eventful Natal Day, as well as to give the address delivered by F. A. Ljaurence, Esq., Q. C, on the memorable occasion, published in September or October, 1882, in that newspaper. After much diligent inquiry for the missing num- bers of the "Guardian," by advertisement and otherwise, they are not forthcoming. If not discovered in time for the present publication the committee hope that the matter of a supplementary nature in the form of an appendix, will be found of sufficient historical importance to, in some measure, compensate for that which has been lost.

  • Canada's Evolving Crown: from a British Crown to A
    Canada’s Evolving Crown 108 DOI: 10.1515/abcsj-2014-0030 Canada’s Evolving Crown: From a British Crown to a “Crown of Maples” SCOTT NICHOLAS ROMANIUK University of Trento and JOSHUA K. WASYLCIW University of Calgary Abstract This article examines how instruments have changed the Crown of Canada from 1867 through to the present, how this change has been effected, and the extent to which the Canadian Crown is distinct from the British Crown. The main part of this article focuses on the manner in which law, politics, and policy (both Canadian and non-Canadian) have evolved a British Imperial institution since the process by which the federal Dominion of Canada was formed nearly 150 years ago through to a nation uniquely Canadian as it exists today. The evolution of the Canadian Crown has taken place through approximately fifteen discrete events since the time of Canadian confederation on July 1, 1867. These fifteen events are loosely categorized into three discrete periods: The Imperial Crown (1867-1930), A Shared Crown (1931-1981), and The Canadian Crown (1982-present). Keywords: Imperial, the London Conference, the Nickle Resolution, the British North America Act, Queen Victoria, Sovereignty, the Statute of Westminster 109 Canada’s Evolving Crown Introduction Of Canadian legal and governmental institutions, the Crown sits atop all, unifying them by means of a single institution. This Crown has remained both a symbol of strength and a connection to Canada’s historical roots. The roots of the Crown run deep and can be traced as far back as the sixteenth century, when the kings of France first established the Crown in Canada in Nouvelle-France.

I could easily devote this whole message to simply thanking the many, many people and “You’ve truly expanded their world.” organizations who have supported our efforts this year including Michael, Youth Worker, Corus Entertainment (our home), Kim Chisolm (our event chair), UrbanPromise, Toronto Chris Butler (our fabulous volunteer from L’Arche) and our many generous individual, foundation and corporate donors.

  • A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound*
    A City "... Waiting for the Sunrise " : Toronto in Song and Sound* Michael J. Doucet Abstract: One aspect of urban culture is examined to evaluate Toronto's position within the urban hierarchy, namely, the production of songs and sounds about the city. Although much music has been performed and created in Toronto over the years, and many songs have been urritten about a variety of features of life in the city, the musical images of Toronto remain largely unknown beyond its borders—even to many of the city's own residents. If Toronto is a "world-class city," the evidence for such a claim would have to be found on other dimensions than the one explored here. No one ever wrote / A single note / About Toronto. — Johnny Wayne and Frank Shuster (19%) I find that lately, I'm missing old Toronto, Where bass is strong and drums are full of fire. — from the Lenny Breau song "New York City" (1987) No nation can exist by the balance sheet alone. Stories, song, dance, music, art and the rest are the lifeblood of a country, the cultural images defining a people just as surely as their geography and the gross national product. — Robert Lewis, editor of Maclean's (19%) Interestingly, though, we don't seem to have an immediately identifiable style. The last time anyone spoke about a 'Toronto Sound' [former Mayor] Alan Lamport was booting hippies out of Yorkville. Unlike a Nashville or Manchester, there isn't any one thing that makes you say 'That's Toronto' -- Bob Mackowycz, writer and broadcaster (1991) Toronto itself doesn't have a distinctive civic culture.

    MANITOBA'S FIRST LIEUTENANT-GOVERNOR ELIZABETH PARKER O Lieutenant-Governor of Manitoba has ever had, or ever N will have, such a task to face as Adams George Archibald faced, said the venerable Sheriff Inkster one afternoon over the tea-cups. The country was in a state of chaos. Riel had been in possession for nine months with the absoluteness of a Czar; and while he posed as a Napoleon, law and order were for the time being extinguished. Governor McTavish and his Council of Assiniboia, the civil authority of the Hudson's Bay Company, had ceased to act when the Company had transferred their Charter rights to the Dominion Government. When he arrived at the Red river of the north, the new administrator knew nobody, unless it was Donald A. Smith who had come to the West in the interests of his Company, Riel and the rebels having looted and lived in its stores during those nine months. And the heavy losses through that predatory pillage were never paid for. Sheriff Inkster pointed out that the choice of Archibald as first Governor was on grounds not of party service but of states­ manship; and that no Governor since had been appointed on that basis. His career, which warranted the choice, may well be re­ called. For by honorable service he had won a high place in the political counsels of his province. The Archibalds descended from one Samuel Archibald, a Scot from the North of Ireland who settled in Colchester County in 1761. His grandfather was a Judge, Court of Common Pleas for Colchester.
