    164 ARCHIVARIA 27 Anyone interested in the actions against individuals which are within the capability of the modern democratic state, and in the effect of current legislation on freedom of information and on the privacy of the individual, will find this book useful reading. Mitgang approves highly of freedom-of-information legislation - indeed, he would have had no book without it - but is worried that the Reagan administra- tion has weakened the regulations surrounding these laws, and can give no assur- ance that U.S. agencies are not still compiling files and watching American authors, even though the legislation is now supposed to make that practice illegal. "To this day [authors] can be watched and kept on file through what I consider to be a wide opening in the back door of the guidelines." In fact, the New York Times of 21 August 1988 carried a story entitled "F.B.I. Kept a File on Supreme Court," which outlined how the FBI watched, taped, and wiretapped the judges of the U.S. Supreme Court "from 1932 until at least 1985." As this review is written, a former head of the CIA has become President of the United States. However, neither Canadians in general nor Canadian archivists in particular should permit themselves too many superior glances at the United States when the questions raised by Mitgang's book come up for discussion. In the winter of 1988, the Canadian Security Intelligence Service raided the offices of Radio- Canada in Montreal, and one recalls the RCMP's raid in recent years on the home of Ottawa author John Sawatsky.

  • BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction
    BANK MERGERS: IS BIGGER BETTER? Introduction In January 1998, the Bank of Montreal and the Royal Bank of Canada announced plans to merge and create one superbank. A few months later, in April, the Toronto Dominion Bank and the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce announced similar plans. The proposed bank mergers caught many people off guard, including Minister of Finance Paul Martin. In a Macleans interview, Martin said, "Just because they decided to get into bed together doesnt mean that I have to bless their union." Martins message seemed to be that Ottawa, not the banks, would decide the future of banking in Canada. "There will be no mergers in the banking sector until we are convinced that [it] is what is best for Canadians, and we will not be stampeded into making that decision." According to the banks, the proposed mergers were a natural response to a changing and highly competitive global marketplace. Mergers, they said, provide a way of maintaining a strong Canadian presence in the banking industry. Certainly, recent technological advances have dramatically changed the manner in which the financial services industry conduct their business, and the above- mentioned banks feel, therefore, that they need to be bigger to compete and to have a substantial presence in the global banking community. Martin himself acknowledged the changed nature of banking when he said, "If you look back at banking five years ago, you might as well look back two centuries." While the proposed bank mergers brought attention to the challenges facing Canadas banks, these challenges are not peculiar to the banks alone.

    HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO HAYSEED CAPITALISTS: PRIVATE BANKERS IN ONTARIO by STEPHEN EDWARD mORNING, B.A., M.A. A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University August, 1994 -- -- --- - --------------- DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1994) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Hayseed Capitalists: Private Bankers in Ontario AUTHOR: Stephen Edward Thorning, B.A. (University of Guelph) M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVJSOR: Professor John C. Weaver NUMBER OF PAGES: viii, 502 ii ABSTRACT The structure of the Canadian banking system, and the establishment of strong chartered banks at a relatively early stage, have overshadowed banking institutions that operated outside the chartered system. The non-chartered or private banks can be categorized into three groups: the joint stock banks of the 1830s, the urban private bankers who appeared in the 1850s and after, and the small-town private banks of the post-1868 period. AJI three types of private banks were established to fill perceived niches in the chartered bank system. Those of the 1830s possessed an anti-establishment, hinterland bias. The urban private bankers specialized in savings and foreign exchange transactions, and often branched out into insurance, debentures, and ultimately stocks and bonds. The small town private banks began and prospered when the needs of small hinterland communities outpaced the inclination and ability of chartered banks to provide them with banking facilities. Unlike the urban private bankers, those in small towns offered a full range of banking services, and they often acted as insurance and real estate agencies as well.

WHEN a man poses before the world— even the, Canadian ^\^orld —in the vole of an author, he is expected to step np to the footlights, and explain his purpose in presenting himself before the public in that capacity. The thoughts of the world are sown broadcast, very much as the seed falls from the sweep of the husband- man's hand. It drops here and there, in good ground and in stony places. Its future depends upon its vi- tality. Many a fair seed has fallen on rich soil, and 3^et never reached maturity. Many another has shot up luxuriantly, but in a short time has been choked by brambles. Other seeds have been cast out with the chaff' upon the dung heap, and after various mu- tations, have come in contact with a clod of earth, through which they have sent their roots, and have finally grown into thrifty plants. A thought thrown out on the world, if it possesses vital force, never dies.

  • "The Little Bank in the Big Building"
    CHAPTER ONE "The Little Bank in the Big Building" VERY SPRING THE ARRIVAL OF THE TRADI, SHIPS FROM EUROPE BROUGHT Ethe harbour to life. It was a magnificent harbour, ice-free, shel­ tered, and unrivalled on the Atlantic seaboard north of Boston. Along its narrow neck, the merchants' wharves protruded like stubby fingers into the tide of commerce. They bore the names of the merchants - Cunard, Collins, Kinnear, and Tobin - and of the trade routes - such as Bermudian - which had made Halifax in the early 1860s a port of colonial prominence. Of these, no name was better known than Cunard: since the War of 1812 Samuel Cunard had thrived on the timber and West Indian trades, leaping the Atlantic in the 1840s to establish himself as a steamship operator in Liverpool. Just beyond the wharves lay the merchants' warehouses, crowded along Upper and Lower Water streets and north along Bedford Row, Hollis, and Granville. Through the doors of buildings like T. & E. Kenny & Co.'s "magnificent granite warehouse," dominating eighty feet of Granville Street, ebbed and flowed the wholesale trade of the colony. The rhythms of the trade were easily discernible. Spring brought the inflow of European goods ordered the previous winter in the showrooms of London, Manchester, and the Continent. Most Haligonians could readily identify the silhouettes of familiar barques and steamers as they slipped into port. Ships of the Cunard, Allan, Anchor, Boston and Colonial, and Quebec and Gulf Ports lines all frequented Halifax's docks. To alert consignees of the impending arrival of their cargo, the ships displayed jaunty little pennants on their masts.
