Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Real Canadian Facts, even those of sentiment, are facts, and it might be not uninteresting to examine, link by link, the long chain of cause and effect which has led through Canadian history to this momentous and spontaneous decision. It was given, it must be remembered, by the representatives of those two great European races who fought desperately for the mastership of Canada. It was given by the fellow countrymen of both Wolfe and Montcalm. For, at this cross-roads of the Dominion's history, French Canada has definitely associated herself with the national verdict against any economic change that might indirectly tend to sever the Dominion from the British connection.

Download or read book Canada Classic Reprint written by Wilfred Campbell and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canada The author has not attempted to give a history of Canada. It is a new country, and not the stage of centuries of human struggle and effort, in the sense that European countries are. Therefore his idea has been to describe the great natural features of the land, in its broader characteristics - its coasts, rivers, mountains, lakes, and prairies, those physical beauties and sublime effects of nature for which the region is specially famous. With this he has attempted to depict the seasons, and the beauty of the Canadian woods. In addition there is given a brief sketch of the settlement and development of the different communities, with special reference to the great centres of provincial and racial activities, and a reference to the people, its origins, composite ideals, and the leading actors on its historical stage of progress and accomplishment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Canadian North West: Its Past History, Present Condition, Glorious Prospects Sir, In the noble efforts put forth by you and your colleagues to develop the vast resources of the Canadian North West yon are but completing that grand work of Confederation of which you are the master-builder. It is now becoming plainer day by day (a fact which appears to have been foreseen by you long ago) that the success of the Dominion as a whole depends in the future upon the development of the great fertile land which you are now seeking to connect more intimately with the Eastern portions of Canada. It would be a poor investment indeed for the Dominion to people and develop that great country if it were to be left unconnected with the older Provinces, or to allow it to be dependent even in the slightest degree upon the good-will or at the mercy of our neighbours in the United States.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Makers of Canadian Literature The boy was an omnivorous reader, readily absorbing the contents of every piece of printed matter on which he could lay his hands. As his parents belonged to the Free Church of Scotland, they objected to his reading of pro fane books, and tried to confine his reading to the Bible, Pilgrim's Progress, books of sermons and similar works. Family worship was conducted three times a day, and each time a chapter of the Bible was read in Gaelic, so the lad got a thorough grounding in the Scriptures.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life in Canada In the following pages will be found some contributions towards the history of Canada and of the manners and customs of its inhabitants during the hundred years beginning October 5th, 1792. On that date my ancestor, Roger Conant, a graduate of Yale University, and a Massachusetts landowner, set foot on Canadian soil as a United Empire Loyalist. From him and from his descendants - handed down from father to son - there have come to me certain historical particulars which I regard as a trust and which I herewith give to the public. I am of the opinion that it is in such plain and unvarnished statements that future historians of our country will find their best materials, and I therefore feel constrained to do my share towards the task of supplying them. The population of Canada is but five and one-third millions, but who can tell what it will be in a few decades?

Download or read book New Canadian Library written by Janet Beverly Friskney and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1950s, much Canadian literature was out of print, making it relatively inaccessible to readers, including those studying the subject in schools and universities. When English professor Malcolm Ross approached Toronto publisher Jack McClelland in 1952 to propose a Canadian literary reprint series, it was still the accepted wisdom among publishers that Canadian literature was of insufficient interest to the educational market to merit any great publishing risks. Eventually convinced by Ross that a latent market for Canadian literary reprints did indeed exist, McClelland & Stewart launched the New Canadian Library (NCL) series in 1958, with Ross as its general editor. In 2008, the NCL will celebrate a half-century of publication. In New Canadian Library, Janet B. Friskney takes the reader through the early history of the NCL series, focusing on the period up to 1978 when Malcolm Ross retired as general editor. A wealth of archival resources, published reviews, and the NCL volumes themselves are used to survey the working relationship between Ross and McClelland, as well as the collaborative participation of those who, through the middle decades of the twentieth century, were committed to studying and nurturing Canada's literary heritage. To place the New Canadian Library in its proper historical context, Friskney examines the simultaneous development of Canadian literary studies as a legitimate area of research and teaching in academe and acknowledges the NCL as a milestone in Canadian publishing history.

Download or read book The History of the Dominion of Canada Classic Reprint written by W. H. P. Clement and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Dominion of Canada The subject of Canadian history has been usually treated in the textbooks authorized in elementary and secondary schools from a Provincial rather than a Dominion standpoint. Such works at best do not meet our present need, as they necessarily fail to give adequate recognition to all sections of the country, and as they often contain exaggerated notions of provincial matters. It was thought by many teachers that this mode of treatment should be changed and a wider view presented of the history and consolidation of the Dominion. In 1889 the Quebec Provincial Association of Teachers discussed the feasibility of preparing a history of Canada with this object in view, and in the following year the Teachers' Associations of Ontario, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia, also considered the same subject. In July, 1891, representatives of the different provinces met at the Education Department in Toronto, for a further consideration of the question. Nevertheless, it was not until July, 1892, at the meeting of the Dominion Educational Association in Montreal, that a scheme was formulated for the preparation of a text-book by competition, and a committee was appointed to examine such manuscripts as might be offered.
