This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from First Report of the Commission on Municipal Institutions: Appointed by the Government of the Province of Ontario As we have derived all our institutions, political and municipal, directly or indirectly from Great Britain, we endeavored to trace the growth and development of municipal institutions in that country, and to ascertain whether anything likely to be beneficial to us could be gathered from its experience or example. We found the task very difficult and not very profitable. England. The present condition of local government in England, Mr. Goschen described a few years ago as a chaos of authorities, "a chaos of rates, and, worse than all, a chaos of areas." The powers which we believe should be exercised by municipal bodies elected by the people, are there divided amongst local bodies, between which there is no connection, save what has been effected by the control which the local Government Board, created in 1870, exercises over some of them. For the models on which our institutions are framed we must look to a remote period. In the Anglo Saxon times the mark or tithing, afterwards called township, had, as our township has to-day, its Reeve and four associates, who managed its local affairs and represented it in Wapentake or Hundred mote, and, when counties were organised, in the Shire mote. At those assemblies justice was done in criminal and civil affairs, and provision was made for the construction of roads and of such other works as were deemed necessary, the greater works being undertaken by the Hundred over whose mote the Hundred man presided, or by the Shire at whose assembly the ealdorman and with him, in Christian times, the Bishop presided. In those days cities and boroughs enjoyed a large measure of self-government conferred upon them by royal charter, or established by prescriptive usage. The commissioners appointed to enquire into the state of the boroughs of England, in 1833, reported that a charter granted by Athelstan, and another by Edward the Confessor, were still extant. It is probable, however, that the rights and privileges enjoyed by cities and boroughs arose from the peoples desire for independence, from their genius for self-government, and from the circumstances which forced those communities to act as one for the protection of all. Those Anglo-Saxon charters, like the many royal and baronial charters issued after the conquest, gave or guaranteed to the citizens and burgesses only the right to elect their own magistrates, to make what laws they thought necessary for the management of the city or borough, to establish markets to carry on their business without interruption and to raise among themselves in their own way the taxes which under various names they were required to pay to king or baron, to abbot or prelate. The only material change the conqueror attempted to make in their constitution was the substitution of a royal bailiff for the port-reeve as chief magistrate. The chief duty of this officer was to collect and pay over the royal tribute. But the cities and towns one after another induced the monarch, by offer of more liberal contributions, to allow them to elect their own chief magistrate, who was then called Mayor. During the long struggle between the king and the great feudal nobles, which, commencing in the reign of the Conqueror, continued for centuries, the cities and boroughs grew in importance and acquired greater privileges. The monarch sought to secure their assistance which often proved valuable, and the barons found it necessary to attach more firmly to their interests the boroughs which held charters from them.

Download or read book Report of the Minister of Education Province of Ontario written by G. H. Ferguson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Minister of Education, Province of Ontario: For the Year 1923 The Ontario school system continues to expand from year to year with every proof of being well adapted to the wants of the people Whom it serves. Its founder and great organizer, Dr. Ryerson, left free play for its development as the Province grew and as new forms of educational activity were required. Owing to its origin and history, the system's prosperity is largely in the hands Of local boards which, being elected by the school ratepayers, are in close touch with popular opinion. TO enlightened views, therefore, much of the success which has been achieved is due. The Department in administering the school laws, as passed by the Legislature, could effect little in the way of vital reform without the consent and co-operation of the people at large. This support is never lacking and the sacrifices made by the parents of the Province, acting through their trustees, call for unstinted praise, especially in respect to the costs of education, which tend to increase and not to diminish. The condition of the school system at present, I have the honour to report, shows signs of healthy progress and of gratifying efficiency, but it also presents features which demand the serious attention of all, in order that defects may be remedied and Obstacles to further progress removed.

This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Minister of Education Province of Ontario, Vol. 1: For the Year 1937 The revision of the Courses of Study for the first six grades of the elementary school, and the establishment of a new course for the pupils of Grade IX, the first year in secondary schools, were two important changes in the educational system Of Ontario during the period under review. The revised programme for Grades I to VI was drawn by a committee of teachers who, in the course Of their work, examined curricula of other systems, studied reports of educational investiga tions, and consulted teachers and inspectors in every part of the province. Special indebtedness is acknowledged to the reports Of the Consultative Committee of the Board of Education, Great Britain. Purposely flexible, the courses permit choice of topics, within reasonable limits by the teacher, and encourage habits Of initiative and self dependence upon the part Of the pupil. The revised course for Grade IX IS common to all pupils entering the second ary schools. The year is regarded as an exploratory period during which the pupil may find the course for which he is best adapted. The introduction of practical courses in Shop Work for boys and Home Economics for girls is an outstanding feature of the revision. For pupils who will leave school at the end of Grade X, as many do, complete units of work are planned in certain subjects. As a result, pupils whose course is limited to two years may work with a goal, receive a better training, and realize the satisfaction that attends definite achievement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report, From the Select Committee of the Legislative Council of Upper Canada, on the State of the Province, 1838 The point of time in which this subject of enquiry has been submitted, is beyond comparison the most' important to the future interests of its inhabitants, of any that has occurred since Canada came under the dominion of the British Crown. Some measures of a decisive character must, of necessity, be proposed in England, in consequence of recent events in this and the Lower Province; and upon the nature of those measures it depends whether Upper Canada is to be retained as a portion of the British Dominions, and whether its inhabitants can look forward with confidence to a continuance of' peace, and to the preservation of their present form of Government.

Download or read book Hoosiers and the American Story written by Madison, James H. and published by Indiana Historical Society. This book was released on 2014-10 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A supplemental textbook for middle and high school students, Hoosiers and the American Story provides intimate views of individuals and places in Indiana set within themes from American history. During the frontier days when Americans battled with and exiled native peoples from the East, Indiana was on the leading edge of America’s westward expansion. As waves of immigrants swept across the Appalachians and eastern waterways, Indiana became established as both a crossroads and as a vital part of Middle America. Indiana’s stories illuminate the history of American agriculture, wars, industrialization, ethnic conflicts, technological improvements, political battles, transportation networks, economic shifts, social welfare initiatives, and more. In so doing, they elucidate large national issues so that students can relate personally to the ideas and events that comprise American history. At the same time, the stories shed light on what it means to be a Hoosier, today and in the past.
Download or read book Colour Coded written by Constance Backhouse and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1999-11-20 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historically Canadians have considered themselves to be more or less free of racial prejudice. Although this conception has been challenged in recent years, it has not been completely dispelled. In Colour-Coded, Constance Backhouse illustrates the tenacious hold that white supremacy had on our legal system in the first half of this century, and underscores the damaging legacy of inequality that continues today. Backhouse presents detailed narratives of six court cases, each giving evidence of blatant racism created and enforced through law. The cases focus on Aboriginal, Inuit, Chinese-Canadian, and African-Canadian individuals, taking us from the criminal prosecution of traditional Aboriginal dance to the trial of members of the 'Ku Klux Klan of Kanada.' From thousands of possibilities, Backhouse has selected studies that constitute central moments in the legal history of race in Canada. Her selection also considers a wide range of legal forums, including administrative rulings by municipal councils, criminal trials before police magistrates, and criminal and civil cases heard by the highest courts in the provinces and by the Supreme Court of Canada. The extensive and detailed documentation presented here leaves no doubt that the Canadian legal system played a dominant role in creating and preserving racial discrimination. A central message of this book is that racism is deeply embedded in Canadian history despite Canada's reputation as a raceless society.
