Download or read book HIST OF NOVA SCOTIA OR ACADIE written by Beamish Murdoch and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-07 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of Nova Scotia, or Acadie, Vol. 1 In the review of the people who inhabited Nova Scotia at successive dates, the Micmacs, the French, and the English, I have seen many shining and noble qualities displayed in each successive age, both by leaders and followers. Some faults they had - isome crimes were committed but we, whosucceed them, may be happy if we can shew the courage, the endurance and generosity that are the attributes of the early adventurers and settlers of Acadie. Some periods of our history afford but little matter for connected narrative. At other times interesting transactions occur which do not form part of the regular sequence of events. In such cases I have preferred to place them in appendices to the chapters, instead of omitting them entirely, as I am anxious to preserve every thing of genuine interest that I have found in my enquiries. The leading idea with me has been to preserve from oblivion the past occurrences in this province. The frequent change of masters - the misfortunes that have often retarded its progress to civilization, and the varying effects that the contests of two great and noble nations have had on its des tiny, will hereafter give scope for philosophical minds to review, and for eloquent writers to expatiate on.

Download or read book A History of Law in Canada Vol 1 written by Philip Girard and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 928 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Law in Canada is the first of two volumes. Volume one begins at a time just prior to European contact and continues to the 1860s, while volume two will start with Confederation and end at approximately 2000. The history of law includes substantive law, legal institutions, legal actors, and legal culture. The authors assume that since 1500 there have been three legal systems in Canada - the Indigenous, the French, and the English. At all times, these systems have co-existed and interacted, with the relative power and influence of each being more or less dominant in different periods. The history of law cannot be treated in isolation, and this book examines law as a dynamic process, shaped by and affecting other histories over the long term. The law guided and was guided by economic developments, was influenced and moulded by the nature and trajectory of political ideas and institutions, and variously exacerbated or mediated intercultural exchange and conflict. These themes are apparent in this examination, and through most areas of law including land settlement and tenure, and family, commercial, constitutional, and criminal law.

Download or read book A History of Law in Canada Volume Two written by Jim Phillips and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second of three volumes in an important collection that recounts the sweeping history of law in Canada. The period covered in this volume witnessed both continuity and change in the relationships among law, society, Indigenous peoples, and white settlers. The authors explore how law was as important to the building of a new urban industrial nation as it had been to the establishment of colonies of agricultural settlement and resource exploitation. The book addresses the most important developments in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries, including legal pluralism and the co-existence of European and Indigenous law. It pays particular attention to the Métis and the Red River Resistance, the Indian Act, and the origins and expansion of residential schools in Canada. The book is divided into four parts: the law and legal institutions; Indigenous peoples and Dominion law; capital, labour, and criminal justice; and those less favoured by the law. A History of Law in Canada examines law as a dynamic process, shaped by and affecting other histories over the long term.
Download or read book Solemn Words and Foundational Documents written by Jean-Pierre Morin and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2018-01-01 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Solemn Words and Foundational Documents, Jean-Pierre Morin unpacks the complicated history of Indigenous treaties in Canada. By including the full text of eight significant treaties from across the country--each accompanied by a cast of characters, related sources, discussion questions, and an essay by the author--he teaches readers how to analyze and understand treaties as living documents. The book begins by examining treaties concluded during the height of colonial competition, when France and Britain each sought to solidify their alliances with Indigenous peoples. It then goes on to tell the stories of treaty negotiations from across the country: the miscommunication of ideas and words from Crown representatives to treaty text; the varying ranges of rights and promises; treaty negotiations for which we have a rich oral history but limited written records; multiple phases of post-Confederation treaty-making; and the unique case of competing treaties with radically different interpretations.
