In 1791, this title was changed to Minister of the Navy. Before the 1890s, this position also usually had responsibility for France's colonies, and was usually known as Minister of the Navy and Colonies. The documents contained in the Fonds de la Marine were created or received by the Department of the Navy of France. They add to our knowledge of the French presence in the world as they document the naval operations, discovery and expansion of French overseas territories. The documents of the Hydrographer of the Navy are very important as their material is of scientific and historical interest. Their wealth goes far beyond pure hydrography (the geographical study of the oceans) to extend to the most diverse areas, such as the history of navigation, geographical discoveries or science, cartography and astronomy.

Joseph Papineau (1752-1841) était un notaire, un seigneur et une personnalité politique du Bas-Canada. En 1809, son fils Louis-Joseph Papineau (1786-1871) fut élu à la Chambre d’assemblée du Bas-Canada, puis président de l’Assemblée législative du Bas-Canada à compter de janvier 1815. En 1817, il devint lui aussi seigneur en achetant la seigneurie de La Petite Nation de son père qui l’avait lui-même acquise du Séminaire de Québec en 1802. Louis-Joseph devint le chef des Patriotes avant la rébellion du Bas-Canada en 1837-1838. Même s’il ne prit aucune part active à l’insurrection, il dut fuir aux États-Unis. Il passa ensuite en France où il demeura jusqu’en 1845. De retour au pays, il siégea de nouveau à l’Assemblée législative de 1848 à 1854 sans toutefois reprendre son rang de chef de parti. Le manoir de Papineau situé à Montebello et sa résidence à Montréal ont tous deux été désignés lieux historiques nationaux du Canada. En octobre 2012, un monument à sa mémoire fut dévoilé à Saint-Denis-sur-Richelieu. Son frère Denis-Benjamin (1789-1854) ne partageait pas ses vues politiques et ne prit aucune part à la rébellion. De 1846 à 1848, il représenta Canada Est à titre de premier ministre conjoint de la Province du Canada. Il fut à la fois agent seigneurial, libraire, seigneur, marchand, fonctionnaire, juge de paix et homme politique. En plus de servir comme premier ministre conjoint, Denis-Benjamin fut aussi commissaire des terres de la Couronne de 1844 à 1847. Louis-Joseph-Amédée Papineau (1819-1903), fils aîné de Louis-Joseph Papineau, fut le fondateur de la Société des Fils de la Liberté. Il s’est joint à son père pendant la rébellion et s’exila avec lui en 1837. Il étudia le droit aux États-Unis et, à son retour au Canada, il fut nommé protonotaire de la Cour du banc de la Reine. Casimir Papineau (1826-1892), fils de Denis-Benjamin, fut notaire à Montréal. Cette collection contient une riche documentation sur Louis-Joseph Papineau et son épouse. Elle comprend aussi la correspondance d’autres membres de la famille, en particulier Denis-Benjamin Papineau, le frère de Louis-Joseph Papineau, et Louis-Joseph-Amédée Papineau, son fils. Il y a encore d’autres documents d’origines diverses, soit familiale, commerciale, militaire, légale, politique, etc., ainsi que plusieurs volumes de documents juridiques et historiques. La collection renferme également la correspondance personnelle et politique de Denis-Benjamin, de Louis-Joseph et de Louis-Joseph-Amédée Papineau, ainsi que des comptes, des documents juridiques, des contrats et autres, des documents historiques transcrits par Louis-Joseph Papineau, de la correspondance relative à la construction d’une nouvelle église, le « Journal d’un fils de la Liberté… » par Amé dée Papineau, des papiers concernant la seigneurie de la Petite-Nation, et divers autres documents dont un livre de comptes, des projets de lois et un livre des visiteurs du Manoir Papineau, etc. Cette collection comprend enfin la correspondance échangée entre Andrew McDonald, sa sœur Marie-Louise, son époux Casimir-Fidèle Papineau, et leur fille Mercedes. Lawrence Montague Lande collection 1550 1981 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_105482 105482 fulltext H-1110:H-1124 ; H-1460:H-1470 ; H-2281:H-2289 Lande F Collection Lawrence Montague Lande Lawrence Montague Lande (1906 - 1998) was an author, bibliophile, bibliographer and book collector who was trained as a notary. Library and Archives Canada considered him to be one of the greatest collectors of Canadian books and manuscripts during his lifetime. He was devoted to eventually collecting primarily Canadiana, though his early collection revolved around English poet and artist William Blake, and was known to bestow his collections upon his favorite institutions; for instance, he donated a book collection to McGill University. The Lande Collection at McGill now consists of about 12,000 items, including pamphlets, maps, prints (including more than 50 early views of Montreal), periodicals, government documents and broadsides, as well as books. Lande's habit as a collector was to gather material thematically, and then to catalog it in lavishly illustrated and bound volumes. Typically, the catalogues included a special section presenting important manuscript material transcribed and published for the first time. The books were printed in tiny editions, and distributed to friends, colleagues, and libraries. The Lande Collection as a whole contains material on the discovery and exploration of Canada, and the country's historical development to the end of the 19th century. In addition to his collection efforts, Lande was the author of several bibliographical, historical and literary works. The Lande Collection presented here includes diaries, journals, correspondence, reports, business accounts, and literary manuscripts, among other items. These document such subjects as exploration and navigation, settlement, the Church and administration of New France, military conflicts between English and French, the fur trade, relations with the Aboriginals and Inuit, constitutional development in post-Conquest Quebec, pre-Confederation colonial administration, 19th century politics, the Hudson's Bay Company and other business and financial ventures, and the literary and artistic achievements of early Canadians. A short index to the collection appears at the start of microfilm reel H-1110. Microfilm reel H-1470 consists of a much larger alphabetical list of index cards referring to the collection, but use it with caution as it may be out of date and not everything in the collection has been microfilmed or digitized. The collection as a whole alternates between English and French texts. Reel H-1121 may be of particular interest to those researching the arts in Canada, as it contains Lande's book, “Old Lamps Aglow: An Appreciation of Early Canadian Poetryand consists of works by early poets from different regions of the country. From records: The Lande Collection consists of approximately 942 units or collections including diaries, journals, correspondence, certificates, reports, business accounts, literary manuscripts, prints, watercolours, photographs, drawings and maps. These document such subjects as exploration and navigation, settlement, the Church and administration of New France, military conflicts between English and French, the fur trade, relations with the Indians and Inuit, constitutional development in post-Conquest Quebec, pre-Confederation colonial administration, nineteenth century politics, the Hudson's Bay Company and other business and financial ventures and the literary and artistic achievements of early Canadians. The collection is divided into four parts: the Main Series (numbered *1 to *350); Series A (A1 to A93); Series B (B1 to B665), and Series C. La collection Lande se compose d'environ 942 groupes de documents ou collections contenant des journaux intimes, de la correspondance, des certificats, des rapports, des livres de comptabilité, des manuscrits littéraires, des estampes, des aquarelles, des photographies, des dessins et des cartes. Ces documents traitent de nombreux sujets dont les explorations, la navigation, le peuplement, l'Église et l'administration en Nouvelle-France, les conflits militaires entre Français et Anglais, la traite des fourrures, les relations avec les Indiens et les Inuit ainsi que plusieurs aspects de la vie sociale, économique et politique à différentes périodes de l'histoire canadienne.

From Record: Dès le début du XVIe siècle, les marchands rochelais rivalisèrent avec les Normands dans les pêcheries de Terre-Neuve et le commerce des pelleteries et s'intéressèrent aux entreprises de colonisation canadienne. De nombreux navires partaient chaque année de La Rochelle pour les bancs de Terre-Neuve, l'Acadie et le Canada. Un peu plus tard, ce fut le port d'embarquement habituel des colons et des engagés. Après la cession, un bon nombre d'officiers canadiens et d'Acadiens réfugiés s'établirent aux environs de cette ville. Aussi les archives de la Charente-Maritime contiennent-elles beaucoup de documents sur les échanges commerciaux et les mouvements de population entre la France et le Canada.

Au XVIe siècle et au début du XVIIe siècle, le roi de France a laissé l’administration de la colonie de la Nouvelle-France à des compagnies de commerce ou de colonisation (comme la Compagnie des Cent-Associés). En 1663, le roi Louis XIV a repris en main le développement et l’administration de la colonie. Suivant le modèle des provinces françaises, un gouverneur et un intendant furent nommés à titre de représentants du roi sur le territoire colonial, et ils devaient rendre compte de leurs activités au roi et au secrétaire d’État de la Marine. Le ministère de la Marine a conservé la responsabilité de l’administration des colonies jusqu’à la fin du XIXe siècle. Après 1710, un Bureau des Colonies fut créé à l’intérieur du ministère pour prendre en charge plus spécifiquement la politique coloniale de la France. Le roi de France et le ministre de la Marine allaient jouer un rôle très actif dans toutes les décisions concernant la Nouvelle-France, influant ainsi sur ses destinées. Cette collection contient des dossiers individuels d’officiers civils et militaires, et d’autres personnes vivant dans les colonies, le tout classé par ordre alphabétique. Il ne s’agit pas de véritables dossiers, mais plutôt de documents épars récupérés après que les volumes de correspondance eurent été reliés. Ces dossiers ne contiennent pas toujours des renseignements très précis sur la carrière des officiers. On y trouve cependant beaucoup de pièces relatives aux nominations, aux promotions, aux salaires, aux indemnités, aux pensions, aux états de services, aux concessions de terres, aux successions, ainsi que des certificats, des extraits de registres paroissiaux, des titres de propriétés et divers autres actes notariés.

Saint-Ours est une ville située dans la municipalité régionale de comté Pierre-De Saurel au Québec, dans la région administrative de la Montérégie. Selon le recensement canadien de 2011, la population se chiffre à plus de 1,700 habitants. À l’origine, il faisait partie de la municipalité régionale de comté de Saint-Ours avant de fusionner avec celle de l’Immaculée-Conception-de-Saint-Ours en 1991. Le domaine de Saint-Ours, qui est un ensemble comprenant un manoir, des dépendances et leurs terrains, a été classé site historique national. Ce domaine seigneurial fut concédé par le premier intendant de la Nouvelle-France, Jean Talon (1626-1692), à Pierre Saint-Ours en 1672 qui y a construit le premier manoir. Le deuxième manoir (le bâtiment actuel) a été bâti en 1792 par le seigneur Charles-Louis-Roch de Saint-Ours (1753-1834). Il devint ensuite la propriété de François-Roch de Saint-Ours (1800-1839) qui a siégé au Conseil législatif du Bas-Canada à partir de 1830 et qui est devenu shérif de Montréal en 1837. La collection comprend les documents suivants : des concessions (1672-1855), des ventes (1719-1899), des procès-verbaux d’arpentage (1719-1886), des pièces notariés et judiciaires (1633-1907), des documents légaux et paroissiaux (1633-1877) et des documents de famille : titres, commissions, notes généalogiques, etc. (1614-1885).

Le Québec a connu une histoire longue et mouvementée depuis la fondation de la colonie de la Nouvelle-France. En 1534, l’explorateur français Jacques Cartier (1491-1557) a planté une croix dans la péninsule de Gaspé pour signifier l’appropriation des lieux au nom du roi François 1er. En 1608, la ville de Québec a été fondée par 28 individus. En 1630, il n’y avait que 103 colons résidant dans la colonie mais, dès 1640, la population avait atteint 355. Les marchands de fourrures, ou coureurs des bois, ont étendu l’influence de la France jusqu’au sud et à l’ouest des Grands Lacs. Le cardinal Richelieu (1585-1642), conseiller du roi de France Louis XIII, souhaitait que la population de la Nouvelle-France puisse se comparer à celle des colonies anglaises plus au sud. En 1627, il fonda à cet effet la Compagnie des Cent-associés pour qu’elle investisse dans la colonie, promettant des lots de terre à des centaines de nouveaux colons et, pour qu’elle fasse en sorte que cette région devienne une importante colonie agricole et mercantile. Richelieu y a introduit le système seigneurial, un système semi-féodal d’agriculture qui subsista jusqu’au XIXe siècle. Quant à l’Église catholique romaine et aux missionnaires, dont les Récollets et les Jésuites, ils se sont solidement établis en Nouvelle-France. Lorsque les Britanniques ont pris le contrôle de la colonie après la Guerre de Sept Ans, la province de Québec fut créée en 1763. Ses frontières pénétraient les régions qui englobent aujourd’hui le Sud de l’Ontario et la partie nord du Midwest américain. Après la conquête de la Nouvelle-France, les Britanniques ont mis en place un plan visant à inciter les Canadiens à s’assimiler au mode de vie des Britanniques. Toutefois, l’Acte de Québec de 1774 devait accorder à la population du Québec sa première charte des droits et a ouvert la voie à la reconnaissance officielle éventuelle de la langue et de la culture française dans cette province. L’Acte a également permis aux Canadiens d’origine française de conserver leur droit civil français, ainsi que leur liberté de religion en autorisant la présence continue de l’Église catholique romaine. En 1791, le Québec fut divisé en Haut et Bas-Canada afin que la plupart des Loyalistes qui avaient émigré des États-Unis au Québec puissent vivre dans le Haut-Canada tout en conservant leurs lois et leurs institutions britanniques, pendant que la population francophone du Bas-Canada puisse conserver le droit civil français qui lui était familier, et la religion catholique. Après les rébellions de 1837 et 1838 dans le Bas et le Haut-Canda le gouvernement britannique a, en 1840, fusionné les deux provinces coloniales en une seule, la province du Canada, et le Bas-Canada fut alors désigné sous le nom de Canada Est. Toutefois, l’usage du français à la législature était, à l’origine, soumis à certaines restrictions, et les deux colonies sont demeurées distinctes au niveau de l’administration, des élections et de la justice. Finalement, le Québec fut l’une des quatre premières provinces à se joindre à la Confédération en 1867. En 1939, les Jésuites ont acquis la seigneurie de Batiscan afin d’évangéliser les Attikameks. Ils ne se sont pas installés dans la colonie bien qu’ils aient utilisé la rivière Batiscan jusqu’au XIXe siècle pour le commerce des fourrures. En 1685, les Jésuites ont concédé les premières terres de la seigneurie à des colons qui se sont établis principalement aux alentours de Sainte-Geneviève-de-Batiscan. En 1791, ils ont bâti un moulin à farine sur la rivière des Envies, ses affluents étant considérés comme étant plus faciles que la rivière Batiscan. En 1786, une chapelle fut érigée à Saint-Stanislas des Chenaux. Vers la fin du XIXe siècle, les municipalités suivantes ont été fondées : Saint-Séverin, Saint-Tite, Sainte-Thècle, Saint-Adelphe et Lac-aux-Sables. Cette collection renferme des actes notariés, des sentences arbitrales, des procès-verbaux d’arpentage et des extraits de registres paroissiaux concernant surtout les familles Turcot, Cailla, Blanchet, Cusson, Houré et Marchand.

In the early years of the 19th century, such matters were referred to the Chief Clerk, the Librarian, the Registrar, or the Clerk of the Parliamentary Papers. The Chief Clerk, by the supervisory nature of his position in the office, came to acquire many general responsibilities including: internal discipline, some financial matters, various military questions, appointments, patronage, etc. The organization of staff and responsibilities within the Colonial Office was closely linked to the principles underlying the record-keeping systems. By 1825, this organization had evolved into one general and four geographical departments. Heading the general department, the Chief Clerk took responsibility for the overall management of colonial administration, accounting, the drafting of formal documents, and (until 1854) some military business. Responsibilities were added and removed over time, but the central focus persisted. In 1854, when the departments of War and the Colonies were separated, most military work passed from the hands of the Chief Clerk as well as responsibility for administering the Order of the Bath.

Homme d’État britannique du parti Whig, il était secrétaire à l’Intérieur en 1782, puis premier ministre de 1782 à 1783, soit durant les derniers mois de la guerre de l’Indépendance américaine. Il a réussi à négocier la paix avec les États américains et c’est cet exploit qu’il a laissé en héritage. Auparavant, il avait aussi servi, en 1763, comme président du Board of Trade and Plantations, puis comme secrétaire d’État au Département du Sud de 1766 à 1768. La ville de Shelburne en Nouvelle-Écosse a été nommée en son honneur. Constitué de transcriptions, ce fonds offre une sélection de la correspondance et autres papiers du comte de Shelburne qui concernent les affaires coloniales en Amérique du Nord britannique, et en particulier les négociations diplomatiques avec la France entre 1760 et 1763, puis entre 1780 et 1783.

En 1663, le roi Louis XIV a repris en main le développement et l’administration de la colonie. Suivant le modèle des provinces françaises, un gouverneur et un intendant étaient nommés à titre de représentants du roi sur le territoire colonial, et ils devaient rendre compte de leurs activités au roi et au secrétaire d’État de la Marine. Le ministère de la Marine a conservé la responsabilité de l’administration des colonies jusqu’à la fin du XIXe siècle.

Le roi de France et le ministre de la Marine allaient jouer un rôle très actif dans toutes les décisions concernant la Nouvelle-France, influant ainsi sur ses destinées.

La Compagnie des prêtres de Saint-Sulpice, qui est une société de vie apostolique catholique, fut nommée en l’honneur de l’église Saint-Sulpice à Paris, là où la Compagnie fut fondée en 1641 par le père Jean-Jacques Olier (1608-1657). Les Sulpiciens ont joué un rôle de premier plan dans la fondation de Montréal où ils se sont engagés dans des activités missionnaires, formé des prêtres et bâti le Séminaire de Saint-Sulpice. Peu avant sa mort en 1657, Olier a envoyé quatre prêtres (Gabriel de Queylus, Souart, d’Allet et Galinier) pour prendre la relève des pères Jésuites. En tant que nouveaux seigneurs féodaux de Montréal, la Compagnie se montra peu exigeante à l’endroit des colons. Elle a tenté d’encourager le peuplement des villages autour de la ville pour servir de première ligne de défense contre les attaques des peuples autochtones. En 1764, après la cession de la Nouvelle-France, la Compagnie des prêtres de Saint-Sulpice de Paris a reconnu, pour des raisons politiques, l’autonomie administrative de la Compagnie de Montréal. Cette collection comprend des ordonnances, des décrets, des mandements, des règles, des lettres pastorales, des notes relatives aux paroisses et au clergé, des oraisons funèbres, etc. Une très grande partie de ces documents est constituée de correspondance se rapportant à la découverte du Mississippi, aux missions autochtones, à Mgr de Laval et aux évêques des diocèses de Québec et de Montréal.

After 1843, the Governors General held control of Indian Affairs, but usually delegated much of their responsibility to a series of Civil Secretaries. In 1860, the responsibility for Indian affairs was transferred from the government of Great Britain to the Province of Canada and the responsibility for Indian Affairs was given to the Crown Lands Department Commissions Responsible for Indian Affairs. The responsibility for Indian Affairs rested with various government departments between 1873 and 1966. The Minister of the Interior also held the position of Superintendent General of Indian Affairs after the Indian Affairs Department was established in 1880. From 1950 to 1965, the Indian Affairs portfolio was carried by the Minister of Citizenship and Immigration. In October 1966, the Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development was created. Today, the department is known as Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development Canada. Microfilm reels C-13401 and C-13491 consist of an abstract of surrenders from various Indian tribes to the Crown and of deeds and titles from the Crown and from individuals to the Indians, 1871-1878; as well as a record book of titles and surrenders of Indian lands to the Crown, 1781-1871.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Sous l’autorité de la Direction des services du Programme, le Centre de référence du Programme agissait à titre d’organe d’archivage de programmes pour la collecte et la diffusion de renseignements statistiques, généalogiques et historiques connexes propres à la vie culturelle, sociale et économique des peuples autochtones. En plus d’être un organe d’archivage de documents de référence publiés et non publiés, la Section des recherches généalogiques et archivistiques du Centre hébergeait aussi la collection ministérielle de référence constituée de copies microformes des listes de paye. Le Centre a cessé d’exister au milieu des années 1980. Le Centre de la recherche historique et de l’étude des traités, placé sous l’autorité de la Direction de la recherche, fournissait des services de recherche aux personnes qui travaillaient pour des associations autochtones, à des universitaires et au grand public. Le Centre fournissait également un contexte historique pour aborder les politiques et les questions de l’heure, ainsi que des conseils et des services de liaison aux représentants ministériels sur les sujets se rapportant à l’accomplissement des obligations légales du gouvernement envers les peuples autochtones. Au début des années 1990, le bureau adopta le nom de Centre de la recherche historique et de l’étude des revendications. Cette collection est composée d’un ensemble éclectique de divers instruments de référence et de divers documents recueillis et utilisés par le Centre de référence du Programme et le Centre de la recherche historique et de l’étude des traités pour traiter les demandes. Northcliffe collection 1683 1907 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_106021 106021 fulltext C-365:C-370 Harmsworth F Northcliffe collection : Series 2, George Townshend papers ; Northcliffe collection : Series 1, Robert Monckton papers ; Fonds Northcliffe This collection consists of rare printed material regarding the careers of Robert Monckton, George Townshend and other individuals involved in the Seven Years' War. Robert Monckton (1726-1782) était un officier de l’armée britannique et un administrateur colonial en Amérique du Nord britannique. Il a connu une brillante carrière militaire et politique puisqu’il fut le commandant en second du général Wolfe lors de la bataille de Québec et, plus tard, gouverneur de la province de New York. L’événement le plus mémorable de son commandement militaire indépendant en Amérique du Nord fut la campagne qu’il mena avec succès en 1755 contre les forts de Chignectou, Beauséjour et Gaspéreau (près de Port Elgin, Nouveau-Brunswick). En décembre 1755, il fut nommé lieutenant-gouverneur de la Nouvelle-Écosse. On se souvient de Monckton pour avoir capturé l’île de la Martinique, ainsi que pour le rôle qu’il a joué dans la déportation des Acadiens de la colonie britannique de la Nouvelle-Écosse (en raison de leur refus de prêter un serment inconditionnel d’allégeance à la Couronne britannique), et de la partie de l’Acadie appartenant à la France (le Nouveau-Brunswick actuel) au début de la guerre de Sept Ans. En juin 1763, Monckton a quitté l’Amérique du Nord pour retourner en Angleterre, mais a conservé son poste de gouverneur de New York jusqu’en juin 1765. Nommé gouverneur de Berwick-upon-Tweed en juin 1765, il fut promu lieutenant général en 1770. La ville de Moncton, Nouveau-Brunswick, ainsi que le fort Moncton, furent nommés en son honneur. Le maréchal George Townshend, 1er marquis Townshend (1724-1807), appelé vicomte Townshend entre 1764 et 1787, était un militaire britannique. Il a servi comme brigadier à Québec sous le général James Wolfe (1727-1759). Après la mort de Wolfe, et que son second, Robert Monckton, eut été blessé, Townshend a pris le commandement des troupes britanniques durant le siège de Québec. C’est lui qui reçut la reddition de la ville. En 1761, il fut promu major général. Cette collection est composée de sources imprimées rarissimes qui se rapportent aux carrières de Robert Monckton, de Townshend et d’autres individus impliqués dans la guerre de Sept Ans.

The first, Voyage of Canada's Interior Going South [Voiage fait du Canada par dedans les terres allant vers le Sud], recounts La Salle's descent of the Mississippi River between 1678 and 1682. Although Minet had not participated in the trips down the Mississippi, he recounts what he was reported from two of La Salle's travelling companions. The second part of the diary is entitled Journal of Our Voyage in the Gulf of Mexico [Journal de nostre voiage du golfe de Mexique]. It tells of La Salle's last expedition, from 1684 to 1687, in which he attempted to reach the Mississippi River by way of the Gulf of Mexico. Because Minet was imprisoned, the account ends with a series of accusatory questions directed against La Salle. The diaries contain handdrawn maps and an illustration of an Aboriginal. No finding aid is available. From record: La pièce consiste en un journal de l'ingénieur et cartographe Jean-Baptiste Minet, écrit en 1684 et 1685, racontant les explorations de René-Robert Cavelier de La Salle au Mississipi et dans le golfe du Mexique. Dans la première partie, intitulée Voiage fait du Canada par dedans les terres allant vers le sud (59 pages), Minet raconte la descente du Mississipi par Cavelier de La Salle et ses compagnons, au cours des années 1678 à 1682. Bien que Minet n'ait pas participé à ces voyages, il relate ce qui lui a été rapporté par deux des compagnons de voyage de La Salle: Barbier et Nicolas de La Salle. Cette première partie contient deux cartes et deux dessins. La deuxième partie porte le titre de Journal de nostre voiage du golfe de mexique (78 pages). Elle raconte la dernière expédition de La Salle de 1684 à 1687, soit la tentative d'atteindre le Mississipi en passant par le golfe du Mexique. Minet relate minutieusement les événement qui s'y déroulèrent jusqu'à son retour en France, en 1685. Emprisonné pendant plus d'un mois à cause de sa désertion et plein de rancune envers La Salle, Minet termine son journal par une série de questions accusatrices dirigées contre l'explorateur.

Commissions extraordinaires du Conseil Quebec has had a long and varied history, starting with the colony of New France. In 1534, French explorer Jacques Cartier (1491 - 1557) planted a cross in the Gaspé peninsula and claimed the land in the name of King Francis. In 1608, the city of Quebec was founded with 28 men. In 1630, there were only 103 colonists living in the settlement, but by 1640, the population had reached 355. Fur traders, known as coureurs des bois, extended French influence south and west to the Great Lakes. Eventually, Cardinal Richelieu (1585 - 1642), adviser to French king Louis XIII, wanted to make New France as populous as the English colonies to the south, and founded the Company of One Hundred Associates in 1627 to invest in New France, promising land parcels to hundreds of new settlers and to turn the region into an important farming and mercantile colony. Richelieu introduced the seigneurial system, a semi-feudal system of farming that existed until the 19th century. The Roman Catholic Church, and missionaries such as the Recollets and Jesuits, became firmly established in the New France as well. This series contains the transcriptions of documents from commissions appointed to resolve the following cases: a) Louis Guiges and the hat makers of Paris, 1698-1699; the wind up of the affairs of the Aubert, Néret and Gayot Company, 1706-1734. b) The d'Iberville armament: the sharing of spoils taken during expeditions against Nièves and St-Christopher 1705-1706 and 1726-1750. c) The frauds of Bigot and his accomplices, 1761-1775, containing an analytical inventory. d) Jeanne and Antoinette Pachut against Néret and Gayot, 1735. e) The revenues of the episcopal see and chapter of the Quebec Cathedral derived from the abbeys of Maubec, de Lestré, de Bénévent, etc., 1688-1736.

While spiritual in nature, these letters also reflect her activities in Canada between 1645 and her death in 1672. These letters are apparently transcripts made in the late 17th century of original letters first published in Paris between 1677 to 1681 by the son of Marie de l'Incarnation, Dom Claude Martin. The text of this copy differs somewhat from the original edition published in Paris. The letters are mostly from Canada and are addressed to, among others, Raymond of St. Bernard, her son Dom Claude Martin, and his religious community. No finding aid is available.

Robert Monckton (1726-1782) était un officier de l’armée britannique et un administrateur colonial en Amérique du Nord britannique. Il a connu une brillante carrière militaire et politique puisqu’il fut le commandant en second du général Wolfe lors de la bataille de Québec et, plus tard, gouverneur de la province de New York. L’événement le plus mémorable de son commandement militaire indépendant en Amérique du Nord fut la campagne qu’il mena avec succès en 1755 contre les forts de Chignectou, Beauséjour et Gaspéreau (près de Port Elgin, Nouveau-Brunswick). En décembre 1755, il fut nommé lieutenant-gouverneur de la Nouvelle-Écosse. On se souvient de Monckton pour avoir capturé l’île de la Martinique, ainsi que pour le rôle qu’il a joué dans la déportation des Acadiens de la colonie britannique de la Nouvelle-Écosse (en raison de leur refus de prêter un serment inconditionnel d’allégeance à la Couronne britannique), et de la partie de l’Acadie appartenant à la France (le Nouveau-Brunswick actuel) au début de la guerre de Sept Ans. En juin 1763, Monckton a quitté l’Amérique du Nord pour retourner en Angleterre, mais a conservé son poste de gouverneur de New York jusqu’en juin 1765. Nommé gouverneur de Berwick-upon-Tweed en juin 1765, il fut promu lieutenant général en 1770. La ville de Moncton, Nouveau-Brunswick, ainsi que le fort Moncton, furent nommés en son honneur. Cette collection renferme de la correspondance, des rapports, des journaux, des statistiques et des ordres, des instructions et des commissions, des comptes, des articles de capitulation et des documents connexes se rapportant aux campagnes en Nouvelle-Écosse, au Québec et dans les Indes occidentales durant la guerre de Sept Ans. On y trouve, entre autres, la correspondance de Monckton avec sir William Shirley, Charles Lawrence, lord Amherst, George Townshend, Edward Boscawen et d’autres dirigeants influents, ainsi que des journaux décrivant les sièges de Louisbourg et de Québec, des documents concernant les prisonniers de guerre, la capture de la Martinique et des papiers de famille. Il y a aussi une liste des volumes de comptes rendus (55 pages).

Charles Gavan « Chubby » Power (1888-1968) était un home politique canadien et un joueur de hockey sur glace. Il a été élu dans l’élection fédérale de 1917. En 1935, Power fut nommé ministre des Pensions et de la Santé dans le Cabinet libéral du premier ministre William Lyon Mackenzie King (1874-1950). Durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il a servi comme ministre de la Défense nationale pour l’air et fut chargé de l’expansion de l’Aviation royale du Canada. Durant la Crise de la conscription en 1944, son opposition à cette mesure l’a amené à démissionner du Cabinet après que le gouvernement eut adopté un décret pour envoyer des conscrits outre-mer. Power siégea alors comme député « libéral indépendant » pour la durée de la guerre et fut réélu comme tel dans l’élection fédérale de 1945. Il rejoignit ultérieurement les rangs du Parti libéral et participa à la course à la direction du Parti en 1948 pour succéder à King mais n’arriva que loin derrière, en troisième position. Power prit sa retraite de la Chambre des communes en 1955. Cette même année, il fut nommé au Sénat du Canada et conserva son siège jusqu’à son décès en 1968.

The land committee dealt with all manner of petitions for grants and leases, requests for title deeds and reports from the Surveyor General or, after 1827, the Commissioner of Crown Lands. Even after the introduction of the system of land sales, committee work continued. The recommendations of the committee were entered in the land minute books of the Executive Council (see the Land Minute Books of the Executive Council series, elsewhere within this fonds) while the petitions and other documents submitted to the committee for its consideration were filed separately. It is the latter records, commonly called the Upper Canada Land Petitions, which make up the present series. Petitions and other documents submitted by applicants for land grants or leases were forwarded by the governor's Civil Secretary to the Executive Council and were filed there in one series with all other submissions to the land committee. A variety of certificates and other documentation submitted in support of individual requests, as well as reports by the Surveyor General or the Attorney General on technical and legal matters, and some lists of settlers by region, will be found filed with the petitions. The great majority of the records in this series date from the years 1783-1841, although in a small number of cases records which post-date Union will be found here.

From record: Series consists of minutes and reports of the Land Boards, as well as correspondence and instructions or regulations for their operations. The arrangement of the records is first by district, then in rough categories: minutes, correspondence, schedules of grants, etc. The order within those categories is chronological. The records in this series are a mix. In that the Executive Council Office took on responsibility for the work of the defunct Boards after 1794, it inherited many records created and accumulated by the Boards during their period of operation. Records ante-dating the establishment of the Boards, submitted to the Boards as supporting documents for claims to land, are included in the series. However, the series also includes records created and accumulated by the Executive Council, during the period of the Boards' operation, documenting the Council's relationship with the various Boards. It also includes some records post-dating 1794. It is not clear to what extent the records of the separate creators became mixed inside the Executive Council Office after the Land Boards became defunct and their records devolved to the Council office, or to what extent they were mixed during custody at Library and Archives Canada.

The sequence is incomplete, indicating that files were removed at some period for reasons unknown. The date and tenor of the decision made in Council is generally found as an endorsement on each submission.

From record: Series consists of submissions to the Executive Council on state business. The correspondence, petitions, reports and other documents submitted to the Executive Council for its consideration or produced during deliberations on questions of state cover the period 1791-1841, although supporting documentation occasionally is of an earlier date. Reports from sub-committees, such as that which sat as a board of audit, and from the law officers of the Crown are frequently included. The series was formerly referred to by the misleading title State Papers, a term also used in reference to most early public records at the beginning of the 20th century. The old title appears on the microfilm and in older references to the series. Each submission was assigned an alpha-numeric reference based on a key word in the title assigned to it as an endorsement. The sequence is incomplete, indicating that files were removed at some period, but for what reason it cannot now be determined. The date and tenor of the decision made in Council is generally found as an endorsement on each submission. That date is all that is necessary to trace the corresponding minutes in the State Minute Books. The distinction between land and state matters may be a fine one, readily confused in such cases as Indian lands. Questions perceived as involving policy or precedent would likely have been classified as state while questions perceived as involving routine practice would likely have been classified as land.

Case files include all manner of documents created in the prosecution of a cause, or submitted as exhibits. Court officers generated libels, allegations, interrogatories, commissions for examination of witnesses, claims and attestations, monitions, decrees, and sentences. Certificates, licences, permits, instructions to masters, cargo manifests and other ships' papers, plus intercepted letters or other documents found on board captured vessels, or taken from Customs seizures or salvaged vessels were presented in court as exhibits. Some, but not all bills of costs and other financial records were segregated into sub-series for the Prize and Instance Courts, as indicated in the Finding Aid. These accounts document both the costs of prosecuting a case and the distribution of proceeds from the condemnation and sale of a prize between the Crown and the captor, or from Customs seizures. They also document the widespread economic effects of privateering, as the law required that the prize vessel be taken for condemnation and sale at the captor's home port of registry -- although the legal proceedings took place at Halifax.

The despatches relate to all aspects of colonial administration, and include numbered despatches, circular despatches, military despatches, and many of the secret and confidential despatches written before 1867. Very few despatches antedating 1800 have survived. This item contains despatches, relating to all aspects of colonial administration, received from the Colonial Office by the Governors and Administrators of Quebec, Lower Canada, Upper Canada, the Province of Canada, and the Dominion of Canada, 1784-1909. By custom, two copies of each despatch were signed and sent out; the text was also recorded in entry books. Filing practices varied over time, such that circular and secret or confidential despatches may be filed with or apart from the primary series. Personal correspondence supplemented the formal channel, but was not recorded officially.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Cette collection comprend divers documents créés et tenus à jour par le ministère des Affaires indiennes. Ils concernent des questions relatives aux Autochtones de la Nouvelle-Écosse. On y trouve de la correspondance échangée entre Samuel Fairbanks (un avocat et personnalité politique de la Nouvelle-Écosse, 1795-1882), Joseph Howe et Hector Langevin (ses deux supérieurs à Ottawa), de la correspondance reçue par Fairbanks, des ébauches et des copies de lettres envoyées par Fairbanks, ainsi que quelques lettres originales envoyées par Fairbanks à Howe et Langevin.

Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Cette collection est constituée de réclamations relatives aux terres de la rivière Grand qui découlent de baux accordés par Joseph Brant et d’autres Autochtones des Six-Nations. Plus de 200 réclamations résultant de ces baux ont été réglées par une commission dont les membres furent nommés en 1834. Cette collection contient 84 documents distincts qui se rapportent aux baux accordés par Brant (1819-1830) et plusieurs autres documents qui concernent les Autochtones de Saint-Régis.

Lorenzo de Nutca en 1789 D. Estevan José Martinez, copied in 1789 from the original text and certified by Martinez as commander of the Princesa (frigate) and its sister-ship the San Carlos. The text which includes Martinez's instructions from the Viceroy, pages 1-12; extensive commentary on the flora and fauna, the geography and minerals, the natives and their customs, and the trade of the Nootka Sound area, with a Nootka-Castillian vocabulary based on the work of Joseph Ingraham, pages 224-256 and 258-266; and a Hawaiian-Castillian vocabulary pages 306-315. The original logbook was lost when Princesa sank, but several copies are known to have been prepared for presentation by Martinez to the Viceroy of Mexico and authorities in Spain. The text in the Museo Naval in Madrid (MS 732) was the basis for the published version in the Collection de Diarios y Relaciones para la Historia de los Viajes y Descubrimientos (vol. VI; Madrid, Instituto Historico de Marina, 1964), edited by Roberto Barreiro-Meiro. Esteban José Martinez de la Sierra (1742-1798) began his naval career at the age of 13. In 1773 he was attached to the naval department at San Blas, Mexico and the next year participated in the expedition of Juan Joseph Pérez Hernandez along the Pacific coast as far as the Queen Charlotte Islands. When concern arose in 1788 about Russian activity in the Pacific Northwest, Martinez was sent north, and reached the 61st parallel of latitude. The next year he volunteered for the mission to establish a Spanish post at Nootka Sound. His actions in seizing the British trading vessels the Argonaut and the Princess Royal at Nootka precipitated a diplomatic crisis. After a brief recall to Spain, Martinez spent his last years at San Blas and on voyages along the Pacific coast.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. La surintendance de Montréal comprenait la région entourant le lac des Deux-Montagnes, la réserve de Caughnawaga, et les Abénakis de Saint-François et de Saint-Régis. Cette collection est constituée d’un ensemble de documents fonciers dont un registre des baux de Sault Saint-Louis, Caughnawaga (1827), des baux accordés par les Abénakis de Saint-Régis (1796-1823), un registre des propriétaires fonciers de Sault Saint-Louis classés par concession et par numéro de lot (1829-1843), un livre des cens et rentes de Sault Saint-Louis (1846-1848) et de la correspondance se rapportant à des ventes de terres par les Abénakis dans le canton de Durham entre 1816-1873.

These records include those relating to the administration of Jesuit Estates lands, among other things. There is a list of items in the collection at the start of microfilm reel C-1215. The surviving records rarely form complete series. The collection alternates between French and English documents. From record: Series consists of a miscellany of records attributed to the Clerk of the Council and relating to both state and land activities of his office. The surviving records rarely form complete series and some bear only a tenuous association with the Clerk's stated duties. The records include: correspondence received and sent; oaths of allegiance and of office; registers and logs or diaries of work performed and registers of documents referred to Council; reports submitted to Council; and records relating to the administration of Jesuit Estates lands. In the conduct of his duties, the Clerk of the Council prepared and preserved certain records on behalf of the Council and others on his own behalf. Among the latter were entry books of letters and orders sent to other government officials, correspondence received, and registers or logs of work performed and information gathered. The inventories of records preserved and the daily or weekly logs demonstrate the range of responsibilities assumed by the Clerk over time and the nature of assistance provided by his staff in performing those duties. The Clerk or his deputy served as Secretary to committees of Council and special commissions, ensuring a degree of consistency for the record-keeping associated with those bodies. As regards the records of oath and allegiance (former archival reference RG1-E11, vol.1), all government officials were obliged to take an oath of allegiance and an oath for the faithful discharge of their duties. The form of these oaths was generally written out on parchment and signatures were affixed at formal ceremonies. For reports of the oath-taking by the Governor and his Council, see the Minute Books of the Council (1764-1775) of the Province of Quebec series and the State Minute Books of the Executive council (1775-1791) of the Province of Quebec series, both found elsewhere within this fonds. When oaths of allegiance were required of recipients of land grants, the oaths were generally recorded on paper in bound registers, in chronological sequence. The surviving records found here are by no means complete. As regards the reports and registers (former archival references RG1-E12, vols. 1 and 10 and RG4-A3, vol. 2), the documents in this series consist of a 1787 Report of the merchants of Quebec on commercial affairs (transcribed in 1938 from the original in the Archives du Séminaire de Québec), a register of bills sent from the post office at Montreal, 1772-1775, and two registers of documents referred to Council, dated 1786-1788 and 1789-1791. These records appear to have been retained in the Executive Council Office for reference purposes. There is little indication of why they were kept there and in what order. As regards the correspondence (former archival reference RG1-E14, vols. 1-4), the Clerk of the Executive Council maintained several series of correspondence received and registers and copies of correspondence and documents sent, in his own right. These have survived in part for the years 1768-1791. It should be noted that both land and state matters appear in these records and that they overlap series found elsewhere within this fonds. This series also includes records which, in previous arrangement schemas, had been grouped together as part of a series of miscellaneous records (former archival reference RG1-L7, vols. 1, 35-38 and 40A), records created in various government offices and possibly accumulated by the Clerk of the Executive Council in fulfilment of his duties relating to the land granting system. Included are: a register of warrants for survey and warrants for land grants, 1765-1772; and records relating to an inquiry conducted into Jesuit Estates lands, 1788-1790.

William Hamilton Merritt papers 1801 1862 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_109986 109986 fulltext C-7061:C-7070 William Hamilton Meritt F Papiers de William Hamilton Merritt William Hamilton Merritt (1793 - 1862) was a soldier, businessman, and politician. He was an influential figure in the Niagara Peninsula of Upper Canada in the early 19th century and was one of the fathers of the Welland Canal, which was chartered in 1824. Earlier, he was a captain and leader of the volunteer dragoons throughout the War of 1812. He was captured during the Battle of Lundy's Lane and held as a prisoner of war in Massachusetts until March 1815. After the war, he would build a house and a store at Shipman’s Corners in Upper Canada. In 1816, he bought a rundown sawmill on the Twelve Mile Creek, and added a grist mill and another store. The idea of the Welland Canal likely arose from his plan to connect the water of the Welland River to Twelve Mile Creek to provide water for his mills. Merritt enlisted government support, raised funds and supervised the canal project. He was also very influential in promoting early railway projects, also with government aid. Later, Merritt served in the Legislative Assembly of Upper Canada from 1832 to 1841 for Haldimand County. After the unification of Upper and Lower Canadas, he served in the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Canada from 1841 to 1860 for Lincoln County. He supported free trade policies and transportation projects, including the first steel suspension bridge over the Niagara River. In 1860, he was elected to the Legislative Council in the Niagara Division. In 1844, the residents of a community on the Welland Canal named Aqueduct, renamed their village Merrittsville to acknowledge the role Merritt had in founding the hamlet. The road connecting the former Merrittsville to St. Catharines is to this day named Merrittsville Highway. Merrittsville was later incorporated as the Village of Welland in 1858. Merritt’s son, Thomas Rodman Merritt, would become a member of the Canadian House of Commons.

It includes lists of officers arranged by battalion, lists of officers arranged by rank and seniority, and lists of dismissed officers. La première Loi de la milice pour le Canada-Uni, adoptée en1846, modifiait peu les structures et les formations existantes dans les deux provinces du Haut et du Bas-Canada. Alors qu’auparavant, il n’y avait qu’un seul adjudant général de la milice, l’adjudant pouvait dorénavant faire appel à des adjudants généraux adjoints dans le Bas-Canada et le Haut-Canada (les anciennes appellations des provinces furent retenues dans la milice). Cette loi leur donnait le pouvoir d’émettre des ordres généraux à la milice, d’accorder des commissions, et d’assumer la responsabilité pour l’organisation, la formation, l’administration et la discipline au sein de la milice. Eux, et leurs personnels restreints, étaient les seuls officiers à temps plein. Le bureau demeurait vacant pour de longues périodes et les adjudants généraux adjoints s’occupaient des affaires dans leurs moitiés respectives de la Province. La Loi de la milice de 1855 a permis la formation d’une milice active. Les 5,000 volontaires furent armés, équipés et payés 5 shillings par jour pour 10 jours d’entraînement par année (20 jours pour ceux qui s’étaient enrôlés dans l’artillerie). Les capitaines recevaient 10 shillings 6 pence par jour. Au nombre de 5,000 volontaires à l’origine, la popularité de la loi a forcé le gouvernement à doubler les effectifs à 10,000 hommes dès 1856. Formés aux frais des payeurs de taxes, les hommes devaient fournir leurs propres uniformes. Cette collection est composée de registres contenant des listes d’officiers de la milice du Bas-Canada. On y trouve des listes d’officiers classés par bataillon, des listes d’officiers classé selon leur grade et leur ancienneté, et des listes d’officiers de la milice congédiés. Great Britain.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Avec l’établissement d’une seconde surintendance en 1873, le reste de la surintendance fut appelée « Division 1 ». L’ancienne surintendance du Nord fut dissoute en 1873 et un surintendant fut nommé pour administrer, depuis un bureau à Manitowaning, les bandes confiées à la responsabilité de la surintendance du Nord, Division 1 (c’est-à-dire les bandes situées sur les îles Manitoulin et Cockburn et sur les rives de la baie Georgienne et du Lac Huron, entre Maganettawan et la rivière Thessalon). En plus du bureau du surintendant, on avait également ouvert, dans le secteur de la Division 1 de la surintendance du Nord, trois bureaux des terres indiennes (un à Thessalon en 1877, un à la baie Gore en 1878 et un à l’île Cockburn en 1879). En 1892, les bureaux des terres indiennes de la baie Gore et de l’île Cockburn furent fusionnés à la baie Gore. En 1898, la surintendance du Nord, Division1, fut démantelée et une agence fut créée à Thessalon pour administrer les bandes des rivières Thessalon, Mississagi, Serpent et Spanish (Divisions 1 et 2). Une agence fut aussi créée à la baie Gore pour administrer les bandes de l’île Cockburn, de Sheshegwaning, d’Obidgewong et de West Bay, puis une autre agence fut créée à Manitowaning pour administrer les dernières bandes de l’ancienne surintendance du Nord, Division 1. En 1938, les agences indiennes de la baie Gore et de Manitowaning furent fusionnées pour créer l’agence de l’île Manitoulin. Cette collection est constituée de registres de copies de lettres, de documents opérationnels généraux et de registres fonciers créés et tenus à jour par la surintendance du Nord, Division 1.

These records include proceedings, letterbooks, and vouchers for supplementary payments. The type of claims investigated included claims for damage done by his Majesty's troops, damage done by Aboriginals, damage done by the enemy, and damage sustained in transporting troops, goods, etc. These records have become a part of the Department of Finance fonds because of the department's role as a central agency whose terms of reference extend to financial matters across all government activities. Le ministère des Finances fut officiellement constitué en 1869. À l’origine, sa principale fonction consistait à gérer la perception et la dépense des deniers publics, ainsi que le service de la dette. Durant la Première Guerre mondiale, le gouvernement fédéral a dû, pour la première fois, emprunter de l’argent aux citoyens canadiens et percevoir des impôts directs (sous forme d’emprunts de la Victoire et d’impôts sur le revenu). L’expansion économique massive qui s’est produite durant la Deuxième Guerre mondiale a contribué à la croissance de l’influence du Ministère, ainsi qu’à l’instauration de l’assurance-chômage en 1941 (désignée aujourd’hui sous le nom d’assurance-emploi) et des allocations familiales en 1945. L’édition anglaise de l’Encyclopédie canadienne décrit le ministère des Finances du Canada comme étant à l’heure actuelle « le principal véhicule de recherche, de consultation et d’analyse du gouvernement fédéral dans le domaine de l’économie et des finances du pays, y compris la politique fiscale, la gestion de la dette et la taxation ». Le Ministère élabore le budget fédéral, ainsi que les lois tarifaires et les lois sur les impôts, gère les emprunts du gouvernement fédéral sur les marchés financiers et représente le pays auprès des institutions financières internationales. La Banque du Canada et le vérificateur général rendent des comptes au Parlement par l’entremise du ministre des Finances. Cette collection contient des documents relatifs au travail de la Commission et des conseils chargés d’enquêter sur les réclamations pour pertes subies pendant la guerre de 1812. Ces documents comportent des procédures, des registres de lettres et des pièces justificatives pour des versements supplémentaires. Les enquêtes ont porté sur divers types de réclamations dont celles pour des dommages causés par les troupes de Sa Majesté, par les Autochtones et par l’ennemi, et des dommages subies lors du transport des troupes, des provisions, etc. Ces documents font désormais partie du fonds du ministère des Finances car celui-ci est un organisme central dont le mandat s’étend aux aspects financiers se rapportant à toutes les activités gouvernementales.

The series includes the correspondence of various superintendents and resident agents, letterbooks, accounts, general operational records, and miscellaneous land records. En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Le rapport de la commission Bagot a recommandé la création d’un district qui regrouperait toutes les tribus du Haut-Canada à l’exception de celles déjà administrées par le surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. Établi en juillet 1845, le district administratif en question prit le nom de surintendance de l’Ouest. Cette surintendance comprenait plusieurs réserves et bandes différentes. Cette collection est constituée de documents créés et conservés par la surintendance de l’Ouest. Elle comprend la correspondance des divers surintendants et agents à demeure, ainsi que des registres de copies de lettres, des comptes, des documents généraux d’exploitation et une variété de documents fonciers.

Le ministère des Chemins de fer et canaux est un ancien ministère du gouvernement fédéral. Il était responsable de la construction, de l’exploitation et de l’entretien des chemins de fer appartenant au gouvernement, ainsi que de l’administration des canaux à travers le Canada. La création de ce Ministère en 1879 enclencha le transfert de plusieurs secteurs gouvernementaux déjà existants, dont la Direction des chemins de fer qui relevait auparavant du ministère des Travaux publics et les responsabilités opérationnelles liées aux canaux qui relevaient du Bureau de l’ingénieur en chef du gouvernement. Ces secteurs furent réorganisés pour former deux Directions : la Direction des chemins de fer et celle des canaux respectivement. La Direction des chemins de fer était responsable de l’administration des réseaux ferroviaires du gouvernement fédéral, notamment l’Intercolonial et le Chemin de fer de l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard (au moment de la création du Ministère). Cette Direction offrait également un programme d’aide financière pour encourager la construction de nouveaux chemins de fer à travers le pays. La Direction des canaux gérait le système des canaux du Canada et les nouveaux projets de construction lorsque requis. L’un des plus puissants ministères du gouvernement canadien à ses débuts, il a été fusionné en 1936 avec le ministère de la Marine et la Direction de l’aviation civil du ministère de la Défense nationale pour former le ministère des Transports. L’ingénieur en chef des canaux était principalement responsable de la réparation, de l’entretien et de la construction des canaux sous la supervision du gouvernement fédéral. Jusqu’en décembre 1892, le ministère des Chemins de fer et Canaux avait à son service deux ingénieurs en chef chargés respectivement de la Direction des chemins de fer et de celle des canaux. Les deux postes furent définitivement amalgamés avec la nomination de Collingwood Schreiber comme ingénieur en chef en décembre 1892. Cette collection comprend des documents acquis et accumulés par le bureau de l’ingénieur en chef des canaux. Les index et les registres qui sont parvenus jusqu’à nous laissent croire qu’à une certaine époque, cette collection était beaucoup plus volumineuse qu’aujourd’hui. Elle peut toutefois encore livrer des informations utiles sur les ingénieurs en chef au cours de la période de 1873 à 1896. Il ne semble pas y avoir d’instruments de recherche au début des bobines de microfilm.

The census for 1842, 1851, and 1861 answer essentially the same questions but in greater detail and give information pertaining to houses occupied, number of buildings, types of housing, property ownership, land occupied, place of birth, age, sex, marital status, infirmities, religion, occupation or profession, education, agricultural crops, farm animals and their products, taverns or houses of public entertainment, stores where spirituous liquors were sold, mills, manufacturers, distilleries, and wages paid to individuals.

In this system, file numbers are comprised of two elements - a subject block number (e.g., 29000 - Surrenders) and an agency code (e.g., 32 - Six Nations). Hence, in this example, file 29032 documents surrenders of Six Nations lands. The Thousand Series contains files relating to the general administration of Indian Affairs throughout Canada. Topics include enfranchisement, band loans, rights of way, mining rights, surveys and surrenders, mining, manslaughter and murder, oil and gas, soldiers settlements, timber, land applications, dyking, handicrafts, and fur farming Agricultural fairs, bridges, churches, council houses, dams, ditches and drains, gravel and sand, irrigation, the Canadian Aviation school, land leases location tickets, case files, rules and regulations, reserve surveys, waterworks and wells, wharves, water licences, debts, amalgamation and separations. Some items were removed from the collection, and then placed back in. However, these items were not reintegrated into the files from which they came, so researchers may have to search around the microfilm reels to locate this material. En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Cette collection se compose des dossiers du système central de gestion classés en fonction d’une version modifiée du système de classification décimale de Dewey (la série « Thousand ») instauré au sein de l’administration centrale du Ministère en 1923. Dans ce système, les numéros de dossier comprennent deux éléments : un numéro de bloc correspondant au sujet (par exemple 29000 – Cessions) et un code correspondant à l’organisme (par exemple, 32 – Six-Nations). Ainsi, dans cet exemple, le dossier 29032 traite de la cession des terres des Six-Nations. La série « Thousand » contient des dossiers liés à l’administration générale des Affaires indiennes à travers tout le Canada. Parmi les sujets abordés, mentionnons l’émancipation, les prêts accordés aux bandes, les droits de passage, les droits d’exploitation minière, les sondages et les cessions, l’exploitation minière, les homicides involontaires et les meurtres, l’exploitation pétrolière et gazière, les établissements militaires, le bois d’œuvre, les demandes de terres, les digues, l’artisanat, les foires agricoles consacrées à la traite des fourrures, les ponts, les églises, les salles de conseil, les barrages, les fossés et les drains, le gravier et le sable, l’irrigation, l’École canadienne d’aviation, les billets de location de baux fonciers, les dossiers concernant des affaires particulières, les règles et les règlements, les études relatives aux réserves, les aqueducs et les puits, les quais, les permis d’utilisation des eaux, les dettes, les fusions et les divisions. Certains documents ont été retirés de la collection, puis réintégrés subséquemment, mais non pas dans leurs dossiers d’origine. Les chercheurs devront donc parcourir les bobines de microfilm pour repérer ces documents.

Researchers should note the following as regards the microfilm copy of records in this sub-series. Those files which were restricted in their entirety at the time of microfilming were not filmed. Where only certain individual documents on a file were restricted, however, those restricted items were removed from the file to allow the filming of the open material. A flag inserted at the end of the open filmed portion of such files alerts users to the fact that the microfilm version is not the entire contents of the original file. This exempted material removed prior to filming has been retained with the original paper record in National Archives custody and can be consulted in accordance with the provisions of access to information and privacy legislation. Les chercheurs devraient prendre note de l'information suivante concernant les copies sur microfilm des dossiers de la sous-série. Les décrits qui étaient intégralement frappés d'une restriction de communication au moment du microfilmage n'ont pas été filmés. Toutefois, lorsque seulement certains documents d'un dossier étaient frappés d'une restriction de communication, ces documents étaient retirés du dossier afin de permettre le filmage des parties communicables du dossier. Un repère laissé dans la partie accessible de ces dossiers avertit l'utilisateur du fait que la version microfilmée ne présente pas le contenu entier du dossier original. Les documents frappés d'une restriction de communication retirés avant le filmage ont été conservés avec le document-papier original aux Archives nationales et peuvent être consultés tel qu'indiqué par la Loi sur l'accès à l'information et la Loi sur la protection des renseignements personnels.

Warre created numerous journals and sketch-books during his military career and drew upon them to prepare official reports and his memoirs. The early journals include pencil sketches and watercolour paintings. A finding aid can be found at the start of microfilm reel H-1700. The notebooks, sketchbooks and memoirs have been arranged in chronological sequence, to the extent that the order of composition can be reconstructed. From record: Fonds consists of many of Sir Henry James Warre's notebooks, sketchbooks and descriptive narratives relating to his years in North America, 1839-1846 (volumes 1-27), plus a small notebook compiled during his studies at Sandhurst in 1835 (volume 31); his memoirs of 1819-1856 (volume 28) and a typescript version of his memoirs for 1839-1846 as edited by his cousin Felix W. Warre about 1950 (volume 29). The notebooks, sketchbooks and memoirs have been arranged in chronological sequence, to the extent that the order of composition can be reconstructed. The progression from daily journal to memoirs ready for publication or formal report illustrates Warre's tailoring of his narrative to its audience. Warre's descriptions of his travels in Lower Canada and across the prairies to the Oregon Territory are rich in commentary on the country and its inhabitants, from a military and a political perspective.

William King collection 1836 1895 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_101149 101149 fulltext C-1462 King F Collection William King Reverend William King (1812 - 1895) was a Presbyterian minister and community founder. He immigrated from what's now Northern Ireland to seek fortune with his family in the United States. In 1835, he settled in Louisiana, intending to teach. He married the daughter of a wealthy slaveowner, and even became one himself, but, by 1843, he had become disillusioned with the southern U.S. and slavery. He would arrive in Toronto in 1846 to serve as a missionary in Canada, but he resigned in March 1847 and returned to Louisiana to dispose of his estate. He planned to bring his slaves back to Canada and free them. When he returned to Canada in June 1848, King tried to establish a black settlement that would provide freedom, land, education and Christianity to his slaves. He finally decided on a 9,000-acre tract in Raleigh Township near Chatham, Canada West. A stock company, the Elgin Association, was formed to purchase the land. The community was administered by the Elgin Association, which handled secular affairs, and a mission, financially supported by the Presbyterian Church and later named Buxton, which looked after religion and education. By 1853, the settlement, known both as Elgin and as Buxton, contained 130 families. However, the start of the American Civil War in 1861 saw an exodus of former slaves back to the U.S. as more than 70 blacks from Elgin enlisted to fight in the war for the North. After the war and the abolishment of slavery, a high percentage of blacks returned to the southern U.S. In 1873, the Elgin Association disbanded, having accomplished its goals and reimbursed its shareholders. King continued his various missionary activities, moved to Chatham in 1888 and was bedridden by the summer of 1893 before dying peacefully in 1895. The collection consists of newspaper clippings dating from 1849 to 1895 relating to black history. The newspaper clippings are from the United States, Britain, and the Chatham and Toronto, Ontario, area. From record: The series consists of selected newspapers from the Rev. William King papers which were copied on microfilm because they were rapidly disintegrating. Some of the Canadian newspapers copied included issues of the Kent Advertiser (Chatham), 1849 and 1855; Globe (Toronto), 1849, 1855, and 1859; Examiner (Toronto), 1849; Daily Planet (Chatham), 1872 and 1895; Evening Banner (Chatham), 1894 and 1895; Christian Messenger (Brantford), 1857; Ecclesiastical and Missionary Record (Toronto), 1860; and the Presbyterian Review (Toronto), 1895. Issues of some foreign newspapers were also copied, including, among others, the Liberator (Boston), 1858 and 1859; Daily Express (Dublin), 1859; Tribune (Detroit), 1892; New York Age, 1894; Anti-Slavery Advocate (London), 1859; Anti-Slavery Pilot (Leeds), 1859; Anti-Slavery Reporter, 1860; and Christian Press (Cincinnati), 1857. The collection consists of Rev. William King's manuscript autobiography, a transcript of the autobiography, correspondence, personal papers, legal documents, printed material pertaining to slavery and fugitive slaves in Canada, newspapers, and other records relating to the Elgin settlement, Buxton Mission, and the settlement of Blacks in Ontario.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. La surintendance centrale (Toronto) a été fondée, croit-on, en 1845, et dissoute en juillet 1882. Elle était composée des bande suivantes : les réserves de la baie de Quinte (Deseronto ou Tyendinaga), des îles Georgiana et Snake, du Scugog, de Rama, de Saugeen, de l’île Christian, d’Alnwick, du Cap Croker, de Rice Lake, de Mud Lake, et d’autres encore. Cette collection est constituée de divers documents se rapportant aux terres et aux ventes de terres dans la surintendance. La sous-série comprend ce qui suit : des permis de coupe (1873-1876), des relevés sur le bois d’œuvre et la répartition des terres, surtout en Ontario (1878-1882), des permis de coupe pour l’Ontario (1871-1874), un registre indiquant les îles revendiquées par les Autochtones de Canada Ouest (1856-1857) avec une liste des baux accordés aux Mohawks de Tyendinaga pour les terres situées autour de la baie de Quinte, un livre de comptabilité (1837-1841), un livre de caisse (1846-1859), des déclarations au sujet des terres (1846-1873), un rapport sur les parcelles de terrain situées au lotissement d’Orillia et dans la réserve indienne qui se trouve entre Orillia et Coldwater (1844), ainsi qu’un rapport de l’arpenteur J.S.

Le gouverneur général est le représentant vice-royal de la Couronne au Canada. Les origines de cette fonction remontent aux XVIe et XVIIe siècles, alors que la Nouvelle-France et l’Amérique du Nord britannique étaient administrées par des gouverneurs coloniaux, ce qui en fait la plus ancienne institution officielle du Canada. En 1867, le gouverneur général est devenu le représentant du gouvernement du Royaume-Uni (c.-à-d. de la Couronne d’Angleterre avec son British Council). Par la suite, l’engagement du gouvernement britannique diminua sans cesse et, en 1931, le statut de Westminster fut adopté. Le gouverneur général devint alors le représentant personnel et direct d’un souverain uniquement canadien (c.-à-d. la Couronne avec son Conseil canadien). Au cours de ce cheminement graduel vers l’indépendance, le rôle du gouverneur général s’est constamment élargi : en 1904, la Loi de la Milice accordait au gouverneur général la permission de prendre le titre de commandant en chef de la milice canadienne puis, en 1927, la première visite internationale officielle d’un gouverneur général avait lieu. En 1947, le roi George VI a émis des lettres patentes permettant au vice-roi d’exercer presque tous les pouvoirs de la monarchie à sa place. Selon la Loi constitutionnelle de 1982, toute modification de la Constitution qui affecte la Couronne, dont les fonctions du gouverneur général, exige le consentement unanime de chacune des législatures provinciales, ainsi que du Parlement fédéral. En général, le gouverneur général demeure en poste pour un mandat de cinq ans, bien que les mandats ne soient pas fixés de façon officielle, et il y a une alternance entre les gouverneurs généraux anglophones et francophones (c.-à-d. qu’un gouverneur général francophone succédera immédiatement à un qu’un gouverneur général anglophone). Cette collection est constituée de pétitions envoyées au gouverneur général concernant des litiges avec les Autochtones entre 1840 et 1850, ainsi que d’extraits de pétitions présentées entre 1839 et 1850. Ces extraits servent d’instrument de recherche pour cette collection puisqu’on y trouve une séquence numérique des pétitions ainsi qu’un index alphabétique des pétitionnaires.

For the period prior to April 1938, only nominal indexes are available. Une division du ministère de l’Agriculture, le Bureau du droit d’auteur et des marques de commerce du gouvernement fédéral canadien a été établi pour faire respecter la Loi sur le droit d’auteur qui avait pour objet de protéger les droits de propriété intellectuelle de l’auteur. Dirigé par le registraire du droit d’auteur, le Bureau du droit d’auteur était l’organisme fédéral responsable de l’enregistrement des droits d’auteur au Canada. Le droit d’auteur s’applique à toute œuvre originale de nature artistique, littéraire, dramatique ou musicale. Elle ne peut pas être copiée et doit comporter un certain effort intellectuel. Les principales fonctions du Bureau du droit d’auteur consistaient à enregistrer les droits d’auteur et les détails alors fournis et à délivrer un certificat attestant du fait, ainsi qu’à maintenir tous les enregistrements et autres documents pertinents destinés à l’usage du public. Les détails d’une œuvre protégée par le droit d’auteur et sur son propriétaire, ainsi que les cessions et les licences peuvent dorénavant être enregistrés à l’Office de la propriété intellectuelle du Canada qui relève d’Industrie Canada. Cette collection est constituée des index des noms de personnes ayant présenté une demande d’enregistrement de droit d’auteur, ainsi que d’une série d’index des titres classés selon la nature de l’œuvre pour laquelle un droit d’auteur a été enregistré. Il peut s’agit, par exemple, d’une œuvre littéraire, dramatique, musicale ou artistique. Pour la période d’avant 1938, seuls des index nominatifs sont disponibles.

Where the orders produced on a single date are grouped together, the Governor's signature or initials usually appears only on the cover sheet. Since microfilming of the series has resulted in the removal of the ribbon or other attachment fixing the various orders to their cover sheet, this arrangement may not be immediately apparent to users of the microfilm. While many orders bear a number, no system for numbering them (akin to the post-1867 use of the PC designation) has been recognized. The numbers appearing at the top of pages sometimes relate to the entries in the registers of submissions found elsewhere within this fonds, in the Submissions to the Executive Council series, but bear no consistent relationship and so cannot be relied upon to identify the location of orders.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. La surintendance centrale (Toronto) a été fondée, croit-on, en 1845, et dissoute en juillet 1882. Elle était composée des bande suivantes : les réserves de la baie de Quinte (Deseronto ou Tyendinaga), des îles Georgiana et Snake, du Scugog, de Rama, de Saugeen, de l’île Christian, d’Alnwick, du Cap Croker, de Rice Lake, de Mud Lake, et d’autres encore.

Il s’agit d’une organisation à but non lucratif dont le mandat est de servir, de représenter et de regrouper les membres du milieu des affaires de Toronto. Fondée en 1845 sous le nom de Chambre de commerce de Toronto, elle s’est développée lentement puisqu’elle ne comptait que 60 membres en 1856. Avant les années 1860, la majorité des membres étaient des négociants, et plus particulièrement des grossistes. En 1884, elle a fusionné avec l’Association de la Halle au blé de Toronto (Toronto Corn Exchange Association). Avec ses sept étages, l’édifice qui logea la Chambre de commerce de 1892 à 1958 constituait l’un des premiers gratte-ciel de Toronto. Vers 1932-1933, la Chambre adopta officiellement le nom de Chambre de commerce du Toronto métropolitain. En 2012, elle changea de nouveau son nom pour devenir la Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto. Cette collection contient les procès-verbaux du conseil d’administration.

Department of Agriculture : Docket and letterbook registry system, general correspondence 1852 1920 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_156172 156172 fulltext T-4365:T-4406 F Ministère de l’Agriculture, système de classification des chemises et des registres de copies de lettres : Correspondance générale This collection reflect the rich diversity of the functions of the Department of Agriculture, including such topics as archives, agriculture societies, exhibitions (local and international), experimental farms, animal, crop and food science, census records, every aspect of immigration, copyright, patents, cattle exports, quarantine, public health and some land matters. The files are fewer in number before 1865, but after that date a fairly complete series has survived. Sub-series consists of incoming correspondence received by the Upper and Lower Canadian Boards of Agriculture, 1852-1867 (with certain gaps) and the federal Department of Agriculture, 1867-1920. The correspondence was received in most cases from individual Canadians or officials and agents of the Department or of other government agencies. This sub-series has two very distinct parts, although the division between them is not a precise one. When the Department of Agriculture in 1893 lost its hitherto most important function of immigration, it reorganized its records system. Until that time, each letter received was given a sequential number (starting at 1 in 1865) as it was received in the Department and filed as a docket. Unlike modern file systems, therefore, if a correspondent wrote the Department ten times in one year, even if on the same subject, the ten letters are not on one subject file, but were individually registered and were placed in ten separate dockets. The replies by the Department to these ten letters -- or rather copies of the replies -- are not interleaved with the letters, but exist in an entirely separate sub-series of outgoing letterbooks and correspondence (see related records note). By the mid-1890s, however (around volume 760 of this sub-series), the Department began to create modern subject files, combining incoming and outgoing correspondence, although maintaining for these files the same sequential numbering system started in 1865. Despite this development for more important subjects, the old system of individual dockets was continued, also using the same sequential series of file/docket numbers. Thus, by the late 1890s, large subject files existed alongside the two and three page individual letter dockets of the earlier era. The subjects covered by this sub-series reflect the rich diversity of the functions of the Department of Agriculture, including such topics as archives, agriculture societies, exhibitions (local and international) experimental farms, animal, crop and food science, census records, every aspect of immigration, copyright, patents, cattle exports, quarantine, public health and some land matters. The files are fewer in number before 1865, but after that date a fairly complete series has survived. This sub-series was received by the National Archives of Canada in two parts: volumes 1-1366 (covering the years 1852-1920) and volumes 2729-2809 (covering the years 1889-1920). The more recent accession (Vols. 2729-2809) consists entirely of subject files; the earlier records (Vols. 1-1366) consist of both individual dockets and by the early 1890's, subject files as described above. La sous-série renferme de la correspondance reçue et envoyée par les Boards of Agriculture du Haut et du Bas-Canada de 1852 à 1867 (avec quelques interruptions), et par le ministère fédéral de l'Agriculture de 1867 à 1920. Dans la plupart des cas, la correspondance provenait d'individus canadiens ou de fonctionnaires et mandataires du Ministère ou d'autres organismes gouvernementaux. La sous-série se compose de deux parties bien distinctes, cependant la division n'est pas très précise. Après la perte de ses fonctions importantes en matière d'immigration en 1893, le ministère de l'Agriculture réorganisa son système de classification. Avant cette réorganisation, toute lettre reçue était numérotée en série (en commençant par le chiffre 1 en 1865) à son arrivée au Ministère, puis placée dans une chemise. Contrairement aux systèmes modernes de classification, si un correspondant écrivait dix lettres par année au Ministère, même sur le même sujet, ces lettres étaient enregistrées individuellement et placées dans dix chemises différentes. Les lettres envoyées par le Ministère en réponse à ces dix lettres (ou plutôt des copies de ces réponses) n'ont pas été imbriquées avec les lettres, mais classées dans une sous-série distincte de registres de courrier envoyé et de correspondance (voir les notes sur ces documents). Au milieu des années 1890 (ce qui correspond approximativement au volume 760 de cette sous-série), le Ministère commença à constituer des dossiers-matière modernes qui réunissaient les lettres expédiées et reçues, tout en conservant le même schéma séquentiel de numérotation amorcé en 1865. Malgré la mise au point de sujets plus importants, on recourait encore à l'ancien système des chemises et à la même série séquentielle de numéros de dossiers ou de chemises. A la fin des années 1890, de volumineux dossiers-matière coexistaient avec les chemises de lettres individuelles (de deux ou trois pages) de l'époque précédente. Les sujets traités dans cette sous-série illustrent la richesse de la variété des fonctions du ministère de l'Agriculture, et portent sur les archives, les associations agricoles, les expositions (nationales et internationales), les fermes expérimentales, la recherche animale, agricole et alimentaire, les recensements, tous les aspects de l'immigration, les droits d'auteur, les brevets, l'exportation du bétail, la quarantaine, la santé publique, et sur quelques questions relatives aux terres. Les dossiers d'avant 1865 sont moins nombreux, mais une série plus ou moins complète des dossiers postérieurs à cette date a été conservée. Cette sous-série a été versée aux Archives nationales du Canada en deux parties : les volumes 1 à 1366 (pour la période de 1852 à 1920) et les volumes 2729 à 2809 (pour la période de 1889 à 1920). La plus récente acquisition (vols. 2729-2809) se compose entièrement de dossiers-matière, alors que la plus ancienne (vols. 1-1366) renferme à la fois des chemises individuelles et, pour la fin des années 1890, des dossiers-matière tels que décrits ci-dessus.

La Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto est la Chambre de commerce de Toronto, ainsi que la plus grande chambre de commerce du Canada, comptant plus de 12,000 membres individuels et 250,000 hommes d’affaires et personnalités influentes de la grande région métropolitaine de Toronto. Il s’agit d’une organisation à but non lucratif dont le mandat est de servir, de représenter et de regrouper les membres du milieu des affaires de Toronto. Fondée en 1845 sous le nom de Chambre de commerce de Toronto, elle s’est développée lentement puisqu’elle ne comptait que 60 membres en 1856. Avant les années 1860, la majorité des membres étaient des négociants, et plus particulièrement des grossistes. En 1884, elle a fusionné avec l’Association de la Halle au blé de Toronto (Toronto Corn Exchange Association). Avec ses sept étages, l’édifice qui logea la Chambre de commerce de 1892 à 1958 constituait l’un des premiers gratte-ciel de Toronto. Vers 1932-1933, la Chambre adopta officiellement le nom de Chambre de commerce du Toronto métropolitain. En 2012, elle changea de nouveau son nom pour devenir la Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto. Cette collection contient des rapports publiés de la Chambre de commerce de Toronto. Toutefois, avec l’exception des années 1931 à 1954, seules quelques copies sporadiques entre 1855 et 1867, puis entre 1882 et 1975 sont disponibles.

Sir Sandford Fleming was appointed Chief Engineer in 1869 and the actual construction was begun. Control of the railway was, however, vested in the Department of Public Works in 1874. The Chief Engineer of Railways was responsible for the engineering plans and estimates for works under construction or repair. Until December 1892, the Department of Railways and Canals had two chief engineers, one in the Railway Branch and another in the Canal Branch. These positions were merged and remained combined with the appointment of Collingwood Schreiber in December 1892, who also held the position of Deputy Minister, a tradition that would continue until 1910 when the department reverted back to just having a special officer fill the role. The professional staff of the Chief Engineer of Railways in 1909 consisted of a Hydraulic and Bridge Engineer, a Chief Draughtsman, a Draughtsman of Railway Plans, an Architectural Draughtsman and a photographer. The branch also included an Inspecting Engineer and an Electrical Engineer. The Chief Engineer's Branch was responsible for all engineering projects undertaken by the department, the preparation of maps, plans and estimates, and the control of capital expenditures for railways and canals constructed by the department. By 1930, the Chief Engineer's Division was responsible for all engineering and construction work undertaken by Railways and Canals, including the preparation of maps, plans and estimates.

Note that due to winter freeze-ups in the St. Lawrence River, ships arrived at this port in this period only between approximately May and November of each year. Information included in the manifests are particulars relative to the ship vessels such as the port of embarkment, the name of the vessel, the ship master’s name and date of sail. The manifests also include names and descriptions of the passengers with specific particulars such as gender, age, occupations, nation or country of birth and name of final intended destination. The Quebec City ship’s manifests are extremely important when exploring Canadian genealogy, as we can determine where passengers came from, what date they arrived, and where they intended to settle upon arrival.

They constituted the only finding aids available to Immigration officers to locate manifests needed to verify individuals' entry to Canada. The notifications are lists of the names of all ships arriving at specified ports (normally those ships for which Immigration received copies of manifests) in rough chronological order. Arrivals for some ports are interfiled by month of arrival. The lists give a date and port of arrival for each ship. They sometimes also include the date and port of departure, the ship's owners, and notes on special parties aboard (e.g. child immigrants, sponsored groups, or ethnic groups). Most of the ship notifications exist in at least two versions: a rough early (handwritten or typed) draft, and a later typewritten edited version from which some notations (e.g. on immigrant parties aboard) have been omitted. There appears to be no finding aids to the collection at the start of the microfilm reels.

Before this period, from 1855 to 1906, the Minister of Militia and Defence was responsible for Canadian militia units only, as the British Army was still stationed in Canada. When the British Army withdrew from Canada in 1906, the department became the overseer of all Canadian land forces. In 1921, the Royal Canadian Navy was transferred to this department, so it was renamed the Department of Militia and Defence and the Naval Service. In January 1923, the department name was changed to the Department of National Defence as a result of the prior amalgamation of Naval Services, Militia and Defence, as well as the merger of the Air Board into the department. By bringing the organizations under the control of a single minister, the government recognized the need to maintain a multi-service force, but hoped to realize certain administrative economies, and a degree of unification in the administration and direction of the forces. The Second World War saw a major expansion and restructuring of the department. Although individual service departments were not created in law, a minister of national defence for air was appointed in May 1940 and a minister of national defence for naval services was created in July of that year to lessen the burden on the Minister responsible for defence. In practice, this meant that there were three separate ministries. After the war, in 1946, the department’s organization reverted to prewar form. In February 1968, the three services (army, air and navy) were unified into the Canadian Armed Forces. In October 1972, the civilian and military branches in Ottawa were merged into the single National Defence Headquarters. Including military and civilian personnel, DND has been the largest government department since 1945, while its operating budget has consistently been among the three highest. The records in this series relate to the complete range of defence activities from the late 19th century until the end of the Second World War, and includes correspondence.

À l’époque de la Confédération, la province du Canada comprenait deux ministères du droit criminel, l’un pour le Canada-Ouest (aujourd’hui l’Ontario) et l’autre pour le Canada-Est (aujourd’hui le Québec). Avec l’avènement de la Confédération, le ministère du droit civil pour Canada-Ouest a commencé à jouer le rôle d’un nouveau ministère de la Justice relevant du premier ministre sir John A. Macdonald (1815-1891), qui était aussi ministre de la Justice et procureur général. Le ministère de la Justice a officiellement été constitué en mai 1868, lorsque le Parlement adopta la Loi sur le ministère de la Justice. Cette loi reconnaissait officiellement la structure informelle déjà en place. Elle décrivait aussi les rôles distincts du ministre de la Justice et du procureur général : le Ministre était un conseiller partisan en matière de politiques pour l’État, alors que le procureur général devait offrir des services juridiques. Toutefois, selon la coutume, le ministre de la Justice exerçait aussi les fonctions de procureur général. Les responsabilités du Ministère consistent à régler toutes les questions relatives à l’administration de la justice au Canada (sauf celles qui relèvent des gouvernements provinciaux ou territoriaux), à fournir des conseils juridiques au gouverneur général, à rédiger les textes législatifs, les contrats et autres documents juridiques, et à veiller à ce que les affaires publiques soient administrées conformément à la loi.

The correspondence includes the Committee's activities and its relationship with railways, municipalities, organizations, and corporations. Subjects frequently entail accident reports and returns; reports of railway inspections; details of rates, tariffs, and tolls; and correspondence concerning passes, timetables, rules and regulations, and expropriations; complaints; petitions for legislation; and approval for routes, buildings, opening of railway lines for traffic, crossings, and crossing protection. Individual items range in extent from voluminous pieces of correspondence to brief transmittal notes. As the correspondence was not physically organized by subject or originator, an elaborate system was devised to enable the location of all correspondence relevant to a specific matter. Separate numbering systems were created for incoming and for outgoing correspondence. Each item of incoming correspondence was allotted a consecutive number upon receipt and the correspondence physically kept in this consecutive numerical order is now found in the Letters received. It was also recorded in a register found in the Registers of letters received. Outgoing letters were also allotted a consecutive number on despatch. No outgoing correspondence has survived, but a record of each letter, along with a summary of its contents, was kept in a register found in the Registers of letters sent. The journals were also used as a location device and a subject index to correspondence. Each railway with or about which correspondence was exchanged was allotted a subject number. Both incoming or outgoing correspondence pertaining to that railway was then listed in these journals in chronological order under the subject number allotted to that railway. Therein lies cartographic material and technical drawings such as plans of railway and street crossings, opening or changing lines, and new structures such as bridges, and shared facilities.

Allowed claims of the Canadian Militia are arranged by list number. Disallowed claims are available as well. De 1906 à 1921, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense était responsable des forces militaires canadiennes. Ce ministère était placé sous l’autorité d’un ministre de la Milice et de la Défense. Auparavant, soit de 1855 à 1906, le ministre de la Milice et de la Défense était uniquement responsable des unités de milice canadiennes, puisque l’armée britannique était toujours stationnée au Canada. Lorsque l’armée britannique a retiré ses forces du Canada en 1906, le ministère fut chargé de l’administration de toutes les forces terrestres du Canada. En 1921, la Marine royale canadienne passa sous la juridiction de ce ministère qui adopta alors le nom de ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et du Service naval. En janvier 1923, le ministère fut renommé ministère de la Défense nationale en raison de la fusion entre le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et le Service naval, mais aussi de sa fusion avec le Conseil de l’Aéronautique canadien. Le mouvement des Féniens qui a débuté en 1857 dans le Royaume-Uni visait à obtenir l’indépendance de l’Irlande face à la Grande-Bretagne. Une aile américaine a cependant surgi et, avant 1865, elle avait engagé environ 10,000 vétérans de la guerre civile et possédait près de 500,000 $ en réserve. L’objectif de cette branche américaine était d’envahir l’Amérique du Nord britannique afin de recueillir du support pour sa cause. En avril 1866, les Féniens ont tenté d’envahir le Nouveau-Brunswick. Bien qu’ils aient été repoussés avec succès, cette invasion a fait comprendre à plusieurs la nécessité d’avoir un pays unifié, capable de contrer aisément les invasions transfrontières ou les rébellions. Il y a eu aussi deux autres petites incursions par les Féniens au Québec en 1870. Puis en 1871, un groupe de Féniens ont tenté d’entrer au Manitoba, espérant obtenir le soutien de Louis Riel (1844-1885) et des Métis et attirer l’attention sur leur cause en organisant une rébellion. Mais ce groupe fut arrêté par les autorités américaines juste avant de franchir la frontière canado-américaine. Finalement, la création de la Police montée du Nord-Ouest en 1873 a plus ou moins mis fin à la menace des attaques menées par les Féniens. Cette collection est constituée de correspondance, d’affidavits et de reçus pour les pensions versées aux veuves et aux familles des miliciens qui sont morts en service durant les incursions des Féniens. Ces documents ne sont pas numérotés. On y trouve aussi un registre des noms des retraités classés par ordre alphabétique, ainsi que des réclamations de vétérans présentées entre 1912 et 1915 en vertu d’une loi adoptée en 1912 pour récompenser les miliciens volontaires ayant combattu les Féniens. Les dossiers concernant les réclamations des miliciens de la Nouvelle-Écosse se trouvent dans cette collection. Les réclamations de la milice canadienne ayant été autorisées sont classées par numéro de liste. Les réclamations refusées sont également disponibles. I.B.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. L’agence de Cowichan en Colombie-Britannique a été mise sur pied en avril 1881. Le bureau de l’agence était situé à Maple Bay (1882), à Quamichan (1885-1904), à Duncan’s Station (1906-1910), puis à Duncan (1911-1969).

Alexander Harris fonds 1870 1960 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_101711 101711 fulltext C-1450 F Fonds Alexander Harris This collection consists of an unpublished and incomplete handwritten manuscript written by Harris around the year 1870 under the working title The Sons of God and the Daughters of Men. It is an account of Harris's religious experiences and beliefs, and it has been suggested that the work may have originally been intended to include a thinly veiled but fictionalized account of Harris's second marriage to Ursula Sarah Carr (b. ca. 1809). This fond also contains a typewritten January 1960 letter from the Reverend Dr. A. Ian Burnett of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Ottawa, which expresses the opinion that an edited version of the manuscript would interest modern readers, even though they might find it dated, both for its religious content and the biographical sketch the manuscript provides of the author. No finding aid is available. The typewritten table of contents at the start of the draft, written by Major G. G. M. Carr-Harris, who was one of Alexander Harris's grandsons, points out gaps and anomalies in the book's pagination, indicates that the first two chapters are missing, and provides notes on which pages the most substantive autobiographical parts of the book can be found. From record: Fonds consists of an unpublished manuscript by Alexander Harris (1805-1874), giving an account of his religious experiences and beliefs. It is prefaced by a typewritten table of contents [supplied by Major G.G.M. Carr-Harris], which provides the draft with a tentative title (The Sons of God and the Daughters of Men). The table of contents draws attention to gaps and anomalies in its pagination, indicates that the first two chapters are missing, and notes the pages on which the most substantial autobiographical parts of the account are to to found. Attached to the manuscript is a letter to Major Carr-Harris, 19 January 1960, from the Reverend Dr. A. Ian Burnett of St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church, Ottawa. In the letter Dr. Burnett expresses the opinion that an edited version of the manuscript would be of interest to modern readers, both for its religious content and the light that it throws upon its author. In his introduction to The Secrets of Alexander Harris (Sydney, 1961), Major Carr-Harris suggests that his grandfather may originally have intended the work to include an account of his second marriage (in which his wife's identity would have been disguised under the pseudonymm Winifred). He appears to have believed that The Sons of God and the Daughters of Men, in which Harris referred to his wife as W, was a preliminary draft, written by his grandfather in later life, as a fictionalized account of his second marriage.

Department of the Interior, Dominion Lands Branch : Métis and original White settlers affidavits 1870 1885 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_134034 134034 fulltext C-14925:C-14934 ; T-4687 Canada Department of Indian Affairs F Ministère de l’Intérieur, Direction des terres fédérales : Affidavits des Métis et des premiers colons blancs This collection is a second (and much smaller) group of affidavits filed by Métis residents of Manitoba in support of their claim to the 1.4 million acres set aside for Métis children under the Manitoba Act. These affidavits were withdrawn from the main collection of affidavits by departmental administrators, and for some unknown reason were never integrated back into the collection. Although the affidavits were sworn between 1875 and 1877, the land grants in most cases were not awarded until the late 1890s. The affidavits are filed alphabetically according to the name of the claimant. Le ministre de l’Intérieur était le poste ministériel responsable de la gestion du territoire fédéral, des affaires indiennes et de l’exploitation des ressources naturelles. Créé en 1873 pour remplacer le poste de secrétaire d’État pour les provinces, il fut lui-même remplacé en 1936 par deux nouveaux ministres : le ministre des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien et le ministre des Mines et des Relevés techniques (aujourd’hui le ministre des Ressources naturelles). Cette collection est composée des affidavits des enfants métis qui voulaient tirer parti de la concession spéciale de 1,4 millions d’acres en vertu de l’article 31, 33 Victoria, chapitre 3 (Loi sur le Manitoba) et des affidavits des chefs de familles métis en vertu de l’article 37 Victoria, chapitre 20. Il y a trois types d’affidavits : le formulaire A qui fut utilisé par les enfants métis de plus de 18 ans, le formulaire B qui fut utilisé par les enfants métis de moins de 18 ans et le formulaire C qui fut utilisé par les chefs de famille métis. Dans chaque cas, les affidavits révèlent le nom du demandeur, sa date de naissance, les noms de ses parents, l’appartenance paroissiale, le numéro de l’affidavit et le numéro de la revendication. Les documents sont classés en ordre alphabétique. Si les chercheurs ne parviennent pas à trouver une demande particulière dans cette série, ils devraient alors chercher dans la série « HB » du registre central qui fait partie de la Collection Héritage. Ce registre fut créé par le Ministère en tant que dépôt spécial pour les documents relatifs aux commissions des certificats des Métis entre 1885 et 1886. Il est toujours possible que la demande ait été retirée par des administrateurs du Ministère et qu’elle ait été placée dans un dossier séparé de la série « HB » du registre central. Si la demande ne s’y trouve toujours pas, une nouvelle recherche devrait probablement être effectuée dans le registre central de la Direction des terres fédérales. Cette collection contient aussi un second groupe (beaucoup plus petit) d’affidavits produits par des résidents métis du Manitoba à l’appui de leurs revendications pour les 1,4 million d’acres mis de côté pour les enfants métis en vertu de la Loi sur le Manitoba. Ces affidavits ont été retirés de la collection principale des affidavits par des administrateurs du Ministère et, pour une raison inconnue, n’ont jamais été réintégrés à la collection. Bien que ces affidavits aient été faits sous serment entre 1875 et 1877, les concessions de terres n’ont, dans la plupart des cas, été attribuées qu’à la fin des années 1890. Les affidavits sont répertoriés en ordre alphabétique selon le nom du demandeur.

When the Department created a central registry in 1903, it assigned a file number to each member of the permanent force and to all officers and non-commissioned officers in the Active Militia. By March 1911, there were no further numbers available, so individuals were assigned to file blocks, eg. 203 Block for Chaplains, or 518 Block for Ordnance Corps Officers. With the outbreak of World War One, file blocks were also reserved for various purposes, e.g. 602 Officers Nos. Contingents, European War. These files were maintained by the Department’s Headquarters to hold records on commissions, promotions, pay, injury or death, and any other information which would affect the status of the individual and, therefore, their relationship with the Department. As many individuals remained in one of the three services or active militia after World War One, the files were maintained and added to by the Department of National Defence after it was created in January 1923. De 1906 à 1921, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense était responsable des forces militaires canadiennes. Ce ministère était placé sous l’autorité d’un ministre de la Milice et de la Défense. Auparavant, soit de 1855 à 1906, le ministre de la Milice et de la Défense était uniquement responsable des unités de milice canadiennes, puisque l’armée britannique était toujours stationnée au Canada. Lorsque l’armée britannique a retiré ses forces du Canada en 1906, le ministère fut chargé de l’administration de toutes les forces terrestres du Canada. En 1921, la Marine royale canadienne passa sous la juridiction de ce ministère qui adopta alors le nom de ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et du Service naval. En janvier 1923, le ministère fut renommé ministère de la Défense nationale en raison de la fusion entre le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et le Service naval, mais aussi de sa fusion avec le Conseil de l’Aéronautique canadien. Les documents de cette collection se composent des dossiers du personnel créés par le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense. Lorsque le Ministère a créé le système du Service central des dossiers en 1903, il a attribué un numéro de dossier à chaque membre de la Force permanente et à chaque officier et sous-officier de la milice active. Dès mars 1911, il n’y avait plus de numéros disponibles. Les individus furent alors identifiés par des blocs de dossiers. Par exemple, le bloc 203 était réservé aux aumôniers, alors que le bloc 518 était réservé aux officiers des corps des magasins militaires. Lors du déclenchement de la Première Guerre mondiale, des blocs de dossiers furent également réservés pour diverses fins. Ainsi, le bloc 602 réfère aux numéros des officiers, aux contingents et à la guerre européenne. Ces dossiers étaient tenus par le quartier général du Ministère pour la conservation des documents relatifs aux commissions, aux promotions, à la paye, aux blessures et aux décès, ainsi qu’à toute autre information pouvant affecter le statut des individus et, par conséquent, leurs rapports avec le Ministère. Étant donné que beaucoup d’individus sont demeurés dans un des trois services ou dans la milice active après la Première Guerre mondiale, ces dossiers ont été conservés et tenus à jour par le ministère de la Défense nationale après sa création en janvier 1923.

Frue concerning the Silver Islet Mine, 1871-1875 Historic Silver Islet, 1868-1885 Fonds de la Silver Islet Consolidated Mining and Lands Company In 1868, silver was discovered at the tip of the Sibley Peninsula on Lake Superior's north shores. The land's owners, the Montreal Mining Company Ltd., did not have the resources to develop the site, so the rights to the land were sold in 1870 to the Silver Islet Mining Company of New York. Within two years, the Silver Islet mine would become one of the greatest enterprises in North America. It closed in 1884 after most of the highest quality silver had been extracted and price of silver had declined. The collection consists of letters written by William B. Frue, the mine's superintendent from 1871-1875; an 1872 report on the Silver Islet mine by A.M. Sibley and a printed historical sketch entitled Historic Silver Islet, 1868-1885, written ca. 1920 by Janey C. Livingstone; and additional notes concerning the Livingstone sisters.

Paylists had at least three copies: the agent maintained one and he then forwarded the others to Headquarters for verification and retention. As the Headquarters copies, the records in this series represent the main core of the Department of Indian Affairs holdings in this area. While, in theory, the information contained in field office copies of paylists should mirror that found in the Headquarters copy, researchers have found discrepancies. As a result, users may find it useful to compare the copy of the paylists found in this series with any extant field office copies. While treaty annuity paylists have importance in their own right as proof of fulfilment of treaty obligations of the government, they are also used by many researchers as a genealogical tool, especially for the period prior to the establishment of the Indian Register in 1951. The value of paylists for genealogical research has some qualifications, however. Often, especially in the period prior to about 1940, paylists normally record by name the head of household only, with other family members recorded only as a number (e.g., 1 woman, 2 boys, 3 girls). This makes the tracing of women and girls particularly difficult as the head of household was commonly male. On the other hand, paylists often also contain very valuable comments about family relationships and about childrens' absences from the family home by virtue of their attendance at residential schools. Often they also indicate file numbers for correspondence about particular transactions that affect an individual's inclusion or not on a paylist (e.g., band transfers, commutations, loss of status by marriage, admissions of new adherents to treaty, etc.).

This item consists of a set of indexed letterbooks containing copies of out-going departmental correspondence relating to the administration of Indian Affairs in both eastern and western Canada, 1871-1920. In theory, a copy of any out-going letter should have been placed on the appropriate Red or Black Series file. However, the Department also maintained these letterbooks as a duplicate set of out-going letters. This letterbooks sub-series can be especially useful in those instances where the file is known to have been destroyed since they permit the partial reconstruction of the contents of a file. La sous-série est constituée d'un ensemble de registres de courrier indexés qui contiennent des copies du courrier ministériel sortant lié à l'administration des Affaires indiennes dans la partie est et la partie ouest du Canada, entre 1871 et 1920. En théorie, une copie de toutes les lettres envoyées aurait dû être placée dans le dossier approprié de la série rouge ou de la série noire. Cependant, le ministère a également conservé ces registres de courrier à titre de copie du courrier sortant. Cette sous-série de registres de courrier est particulièrement utile dans les cas où le dossier a été détruit, car ils permettent de reconstituer une partie du contenu du dossier.

There are often separate paylists for officers and for non-commissioned officers and men. The forms generally indicate the names and ranks of those receiving pay, the rate of pay, and the period covered by the pay. Some forms are more detailed and describe washing, hospital, library, subscriptions, mess, and uniform expenses, as well as fines and other charges. In addition, the form indicates the total charge to the Accounts and Pay Branch for the unit. The completed form was signed by the officer commanding and authorized by the Paymaster of the Accounts and Pay Branch. In addition to the corps, units and staff of the Permanent Force, there are paylists and nominal rolls for those participating in the 1902 Coronation Contingent. De 1906 à 1921, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense était responsable des forces militaires canadiennes. Ce ministère était placé sous l’autorité d’un ministre de la Milice et de la Défense. Auparavant, soit de 1855 à 1906, le ministre de la Milice et de la Défense était uniquement responsable des unités de milice canadiennes, puisque l’armée britannique était toujours stationnée au Canada. Lorsque l’armée britannique a retiré ses forces du Canada en 1906, le ministère fut chargé de l’administration de toutes les forces terrestres du Canada. En 1921, la Marine royale canadienne passa sous la juridiction de ce ministère qui adopta alors le nom de ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et du Service naval. En janvier 1923, le ministère fut renommé ministère de la Défense nationale en raison de la fusion entre le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et le Service naval, mais aussi de sa fusion avec le Conseil de l’Aéronautique canadien. Au moment de la Confédération, le besoin d’une armée permanente canadienne n’était pas largement ressenti. Toutefois, le départ, en 1871, de l’armée britannique de toutes les bases canadiennes à l’exception de Halifax a donné l’impulsion nécessaire à la formation d’une telle force. La même année, Ottawa a autorisé la création de batteries d’artillerie permanentes à Québec et à Kingston, lesquelles devaient aussi servir d’écoles spécialisées dans l’art de l’artillerie moderne. Le gouvernement a finalement reconnu qu’il existait un besoin similaire pour l’entraînement adéquat et efficace des unités de milice, d’infanterie et de cavalerie et la Loi sur la milice fut amendée en conséquence. L’amendement de 1883 exigeait la création de trois écoles d’infanterie et de cavalerie administrées par des officiers permanents et autres hommes de rang subalterne. Il est généralement admis que cette mesure donna naissance à l’Armée régulière du Canada, ou « Force permanente » comme elle est désignée dans la Loi sur la milice de 1904. Des ordonnances générales émises par l’officier général commandant et sous l’autorité du ministre de la Milice et de la Défense ont défini le formulaire de la milice et les autres documents devant être soumis pour la gestion de la paye dans les unités de la Force permanente, ainsi que de celle des officiers et des hommes recevant une formation dans les unités de la Force permanente. Cette collection est constituée des listes nominatives et des listes de paye pour les unités de la Force permanente de la milice canadienne entre 1871 et 1914. Les documents de cette collection sont classés par corps de la Force permanente, puis par année. Il existe souvent des listes de paye distinctes pour les officiers et pour les sous-officiers et hommes de troupe. En général, les formulaires indiquent les noms et les rangs de ceux qui reçoivent leur paye, le taux de rémunération et la période couverte par la paye. Certains formulaires sont plus détaillés puisqu’ils indiquent aussi les frais de lessive, d’hôpital, de bibliothèque, d’abonnements, de mess et d’uniformes, ainsi les amendes et autres frais. Le formulaire mentionne également le total des frais inscrits pour l’unité à la Direction de la comptabilité et de la paye. Une fois complété, le formulaire était signé par l’officier commandant et autorisé par le trésorier de la Direction de la comptabilité et de la paye. En plus des listes de paye pour le corps, les unités et le personnel de la Force permanente, on trouve des listes de paye pour ceux ayant servi dans le Contingent du couronnement de 1902.

Les Mennonites formaient un groupe religieux et culturel protestant qui a d’abord émigré des États-Unis au Canada à la suite de la Révolution américaine de 1776. La plus grande vague arriva toutefois de la Russie, de la Prusse et des États-Unis entre 1890 et 1914. En général, ceux d’Europe fuyaient la persécution religieuse et étaient attirés par la disponibilité des grandes terres agricoles du Canada à cette époque. De plus, ce groupe pacifiste, ou aimant la paix, appréciait le fait que le Canada offrait le service militaire non obligatoire. Parmi ceux qui se sont établis ici, beaucoup parlaient des langues germaniques et ils se sont surtout concentrés dans le sud du Manitoba.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Cette collection est constituée de registres de lettres, de fichiers et de registres indexés pour la correspondance reçue par le système central de gestion des dossiers en provenance tant de l’Est que de l’Ouest du Canada. Comme pour plusieurs autres organismes fédéraux à la fin du XIXe siècle et au début du XXe siècle, le système de gestion des dossiers de l’administration centrale du ministère des Affaires indiennes se fondait sur le processus de l’enregistrement. Le courrier reçu par le Ministère était consigné au moment de sa réception avant d’être placé dans un dossier. Les registres indiquent la date d’envoi de la lettre reçue, sa date de réception, le nom de l’expéditeur, un bref résumé du sujet, une indication des mesures de suivi et le numéro du dossier auquel la lettre a été consignée. Ces registres constituent des outils importants pour les archivistes du Ministère lorsqu’ils veulent retrouver et consulter des documents classés. En fait, les registres constituent un inventaire des lettres reçues et classées dans les séries Rouge et Noire, ainsi que dans d’autres séries subséquentes jusqu’en 1962. Ces registres sont particulièrement utiles de nos jours pour reconstituer le contenu des dossiers ayant été détruits. Certains documents de cette collection n’ont pas été microfilmés et, par conséquent, ne sont pas disponibles ici.

Correctional Service of Canada : Stony Mountain Penitentiary (Winnipeg, Manitoba) 1872 1921 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_134808 134808 fulltext T-11079:T-11095 Canada Correctional Service Canada F Service correctionnel du Canada : Pénitencier de Stony Mountain (Winnipeg, Manitoba) This collection consists of registry records from the Manitoba Penitentiary, Stony Mountain. These records are part of a much larger collection of prison registers for the Manitoba Penitentiary that are stored in the Federal Records Centre in Winnipeg. The records consist mainly of letterpress copies of correspondence which are sometimes badly faded and, in some instances, completely unreadable. Included are the Warden's letter books (1872 - 1913), Accountant's letter books (1878 - 1902), Surgeon's letter books (1885 - 1897) and Inspector's minute books (1882 - 1889). Also included are Inmate Admittance Books (1871 - 1921). Le Service correctionnel du Canada (SCC) est l’agence fédérale du gouvernement du Canada qui est responsable de l’incarcération et de la réhabilitation des criminels condamnés à deux années et plus. Le Service correctionnel du Canada a vu le jour le 21 décembre 1978. En 1868, la première Loi sur les pénitenciers avait ordonné que les prisons de Saint John, Nouveau-Brunswick et d’Halifax, tout comme celle de Kingston, passent sous la responsabilité du gouvernement fédéral. Au cours des douze années subséquentes, le gouvernement fédéral a fait construire le pénitencier de Saint-Vincent-de-Paul à Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, au Québec (1873), celui du Manitoba à Stony Mountain, Manitoba (1877), celui de la Colombie-Britannique à New Westminster, Colombie-Britannique (1878), ainsi que le pénitencier de Dorchester au Nouveau-Brunswick (1880). Ces établissements ont alors adopté un régime qui imposait la main-d’œuvre productive durant le jour, l’isolement cellulaire durant les heures de loisirs et le silence en tout temps. La libération conditionnelle n’était pas encore admise, mais les détenus pouvaient bénéficier d’une réduction de peine de trois jours par mois pour bonne conduite. Aujourd’hui, le SCC fait partie du système de justice pénale et doit respecter la primauté du droit. Il contribue ainsi à la sécurité publique en incitant activement et en aidant les délinquants à devenir des citoyens respectueux des lois, tout en exerçant sur eux un contrôle raisonnable, sûr, sécuritaire et humain. Cette collection est constituée de registres provenant du pénitencier de Stony Mountain, au Manitoba. Ces registres font partie d’une collection beaucoup plus importante de registres carcéraux pour le pénitencier du Manitoba qui sont conservés au Centre des dossiers fédéraux à Winnipeg. Ces documents comprennent principalement des copies typographiques de lettres dont l’écriture est souvent très pâle, et parfois même illisible. On y trouve, entre autres, des registres de copies de lettres du gardien (1872-1913), du comptable (1878-1902) et du chirurgien (1886-1897), des registres de procès-verbaux de l’inspecteur (1882-1889), ainsi qu’un registre d’admission des détenus (1871-1921).

Royal Canadian Mounted Police : Personnel files for members of the RCMP and its predecessors, the RNWMP and the NWMP (1873-1999) 1873 1999 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_158709 158709 fulltext T-18201:T-18247 Royal Canadian Mounted Police F Fonds de la Gendarmerie royale du Canada Sub-series consists of personnel files for members of the RCMP and its predecessors, the RNWMP and the NWMP. The sub-series spans early service records of RCMP members from its creation in 1873 to service records dated as recently as 1999. Included are records for Regular Force members, Officers, Special Constables, Auxiliary Constables, and Surgeons of the force. Service records of the Prince Albert Volunteers, a volunteer militia group that fought alongside the NWMP during the 1885 North-West Rebellion, are also found in this sub-series The richness and completeness of the service records vary, with the majority of records dating to the early years of the force between 1873 and 1904. The sub-series includes the service records of all members of the NWMP up to 1904. After 1904, only files identified as historically important by the RCMP and Library and Archives Canada have been kept. For example, the service records of members who served in either the First or Second World War have been kept, as have the records for members who died while on duty. Service files of members usually include enrollment papers, contract and terms, oath of allegiance, medical reports and discharge certificate. Also included, where applicable, is their receipt for a land warrant, claims for pay and clothing and compensation or pension details. Correspondence responding to inquiries about ex-members of the Force, short biographies, newspaper clippings and photographs appear on some of the files. Within the sub-series several copies of the same service record may be found in paper and microfiche in several volumes. The RCMP often created two sets of microfiche of the original paper records: the diazo set, and the silvermaster set. In the situation where multiple versions of a service record exist in the sub-series, the microfiche copy is the most complete archival record as in many cases parts of the paper record were destroyed after microfilming. In cases where both diazo and silvermaster microfiche exist, the two sets will be identical. The diazo should always be used. Service records for the Regular Force begin in 1873 with the personnel files of the early members of the NWMP. Paper files of the service records of the early years of the Regular Force to 1904 can be found in volumes 3318-3436 of this sub-series. Microfilm copies of volumes 3318-3364 were created by Library and Archives Canada and can be found on reels T-18200 to T-18242 in LAC's microfilm consultation room at 395 Wellington, Ottawa. A diazo microfiche set of the Regular Force early service records is located in volumes 10048 to 10061, and a silvermaster set is located in volumes 10037 to 10047. In the sub-series, Regular Force service records created beyond 1904 are fewer in number. The paper version of these later service records can be found in volumes 4835 to 4860 (microfiche equivalent found in Box 1, registration 1994-95/309 GAD), volumes 10065 to 10089 (diazo and silvermaster versions can be found in volume 10090), and volumes 11300-11326 (diazo and silvermaster versions can be found in R196 volumes 12300-12307). Officer files also begin in 1873 with the service record for the first Commissioner of the force, George French. Paper versions of Officer service records are found in volumes 3436 to 3465 and 4835 to 4860. Diazo microfiche versions are in volumes 10048 to 10061. Silvermaster microfiche are found in volumes 10037 to 10047. Diazo and silvermaster can both be found in R196 volumes 12300-12307, as well as Box 1, registration 1994-95/309 GAD. In addition to Regular Force and Officer service records, this sub-series includes personnel files for Special Constables and Auxiliary Constables of the RCMP. Special Constables are members of the RCMP that undertake specific duties which do not require the full power of a Regular Force Constable. Examples of service records for Special Constables found in this sub-series include Painters, Native Interpreters, and Cooks that served with the RCMP. Paper versions of Special Constable service records are found in volumes 3634, and 4835 to 4860. Microfiche copies are located in Box 1, registration 1994-95/309 GAD. The rank of Auxiliary Constable was created by the RCMP in 1963 as an unpaid and volunteer position. This sub-series contains some service records for Auxiliary Constables that served between 1963 and 1993. These are in paper form and are found in volumes 10065 to 10089. The Service Records sub-series also includes the personnel records of Surgeons who served with the RCMP from its early years into the 20th century. These records are in paper form and are found in volumes 3570 to 3573. Volumes 3466, 3544, 7196 to 7227, and Box 33 (1997-98/387 GAD) contain a mix of service records that span Regular Force members, Officers, and Special Constables. Some of these records are of notable members. For example, volume 3466 contains service files for the first Mountie to fly North and members of the Lost Patrol to name a few. Service records of the Prince Albert Volunteers, a volunteer militia group that fought alongside the NWMP during the 1885 North-West Rebellion, are also found in this sub-series in volumes 3573-3577. These files contain information put together to extend the Military Bounty benefits to those Prince Albert Volunteers who served temporarily as scouts or members during the conflict.

Most of the registers are accompanied by an index of correspondents. Official correspondence received by the Marine Branch between the years 1868 and approximately 1923 was organized by subject and placed on registry files. Each registry file (or subject) was allotted a number in consecutive order of numerical sequence. In 1923, this registry system was replaced by a departmental subject file classification plan; however, some correspondence continued to be organized under the old registry system right up to the year 1936. Conversely, some correspondence dated prior to 1923 was removed from the old registry system and reclassified under the later subject file plan.

The registers are organized by claim number. Each entry records the allotment number, claimant's name, parents' names, claimant's occupation, date of 18th birthday (for minors), grant number, date of the allotment, and the legal description to which the allotment was applied. Each parish return is signed by a representative of the Lieutenant-Governor.

La Police montée du Nord-Ouest (PMNO) est une force policière créée par le Parlement en 1873. Son but était alors de maintenir la loi et l’ordre parmi les nouveaux colons établis dans la région située à l’ouest de l’Ontario, d’aider les autochtones dans leur transition vers les réserves indiennes et d’agir en tant que symbole de la souveraineté canadienne contre l’annexion américaine. La force policière fut créée aussi en partie pour contrer les invasions des Féniens qui ont failli réussir à s’infiltrer au Manitoba en 1871. En 1904, le titre « royal » a été ajouté au nom de l’organisation. En 1920, elle s’est fusionnée avec la Dominion Police, la principale force policière créée pour tout le territoire situé à l’est du Manitoba, et la force devint alors la Gendarmerie royale du Canada (GRC). La nouvelle organisation, dont le mandat consistait à faire respecter les lois fédérales dans toutes les provinces et tous les territoires, commença immédiatement à assumer son rôle actuel de protecteur de la sécurité nationale du Canada et ses responsabilités en matière de contre-espionnage.

Provencher was appointed Indian Commissioner for Manitoba and the North West Territories by an Order in Council in late February 1873, on the resignation from that post of Wemyss Simpson. With the re-structuring of the administration in 1876 and the appointment as Indian Commissioner of Lt. Governor David Laird, Provencher became Acting Superintendent of the Manitoba Superintendency. In November 1877, a Commission was appointed to investigate frauds and irregularities allegedly committed by Provencher in connection with his position as Acting Superintendent. Investigating commissioners Ebenezer McColl, Inspector of Indian Agencies, and W. A. Ross, barrister, found the charges substantially borne out by the evidence collected through their commission, and Provencher was dismissed in May 1879. The investigation found Provencher guilty of, among other things, corruption in the tendering of Indian supplies, providing the Indians with inferior equipment, sending fictitious accounts to the Department, supplying the Indians with food unfit for use, collusion to produce fraudulent accounts with suppliers, and of having been corruptly interested in contracts for cattle and other Indian supplies.

En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères.

He served two very comparatively brief terms as a Conservative Prime Minister of Canada: from July 1920 to December 1921, and from June 1926 to September 1926. He was the first Prime Minister born after Confederation, and the only one to represent a riding in Manitoba. Meighen served as Solicitor General from 1913 until 1917, when he was appointed Minister of Mines and Secretary of State for Canada. In 1917, he was mainly responsible for putting in place mandatory military service as a result of the Conscription Crisis. In October 1917, Meighen became Minister of the Interior and Superintendent of Indian Affairs. As Minister of the Interior, Meighen steered through Parliament the largest piece of legislation ever enacted in the British Empire with the creation of the Canadian National Railway. In 1919, as acting Minister of Justice and senior Manitoban in the government of Sir Robert Borden (1854 - 1937), Meighen helped put down the Winnipeg General Strike by force. He was re-appointed Minister of Mines on the last day of 1920. After his second tenure as Prime Minister, Meighen resigned as Conservative Party leader and moved to Toronto to practice law. However, Meighen was appointed to the Senate in 1932 and served as Leader of the Government in the Senate and Minister without Portfolio from 1932 to 1935. He served as Leader of the Opposition in the Senate from 1935 until his resignation in 1942 during a political comeback as Conservative party leader. However, this comeback attempt was not successful, and he announced he was stepping down as leader in late 1942. Following this second political retirement, Meighen returned to the practice of law in Toronto. Buildings and landmarks in Canada have been named in his honour. These papers largely consist of correspondence and cover such topics as the federal election of 1917, war-time legislation and the policies and personnel of the Union Government. The period 1920 to 1926 is covered in considerable detail. About 70 percent of the correspondence covers the 1920 to 1926 period. Also included are papers relating to personal finances, 1878-1945, and letters from Arthur Meighen to his son, T.R. Meighen, 1923-1953. R.B.

Department of Militia and Defence : Records relating to the North West Rebellion, 1880-1885 1880 1885 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_194846 194846 fulltext T-281 ; T-10393:T-10395 Canada Department of Militia and Defence F Ministère de la Milice et de la Défense : Documents relatifs à la rébellion du Nord-Ouest, 1880-1885 This collection consists of telegrams dated April 1 to 3, 1885, that were to and from Adolphe Caron (1843 - 1908), Minister of Militia and Defence, regarding the despatch of the troops and the situation in the North West, as well as telegrams and a few letters exchanged between officers in the North West relating to supplies and transport, troop movements and the pursuit of Big Bear (1825 - 1888), an Aboriginal leader. The records also include an abstract of ration returns, statements and accounts for the North West Field Force, copies of contracts and agreements with teamsters and lists of teamsters.

De 1906 à 1921, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense était responsable des forces militaires canadiennes. Ce ministère était placé sous l’autorité d’un ministre de la Milice et de la Défense. Auparavant, soit de 1855 à 1906, le ministre de la Milice et de la Défense était uniquement responsable des unités de milice canadiennes, puisque l’armée britannique était toujours stationnée au Canada. Lorsque l’armée britannique a retiré ses forces du Canada en 1906, le ministère fut chargé de l’administration de toutes les forces terrestres du Canada. En 1921, la Marine royale canadienne passa sous la juridiction de ce ministère qui adopta alors le nom de ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et du Service naval. En janvier 1923, le ministère fut renommé ministère de la Défense nationale en raison de la fusion entre le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et le Service naval, mais aussi de sa fusion avec le Conseil de l’Aéronautique canadien. La rébellion du Nord-Ouest est survenue en 1885 dans la province actuelle de la Saskatchewan. Elle était dirigée par Louis Riel et un petit groupe d’Autochtones et de Métis qui croyaient toujours qu’on leur refusait leurs droits territoriaux. Rapidement maîtrisée, cette révolte a contribué à détourner l’opinion publique de la situation critique des peuples autochtones. La Force expéditionnaire du Nord-Ouest était un corps de milice et de troupes régulières créée pour réprimer la rébellion du Nord-Ouest de 1885, ce qui constituait le premier engagement militaire du Canada sans le soutien des troupes britanniques (bien que des officiers britanniques y aient encore joué un rôle). Cette collection contient des télégrammes datés du 1er au 3 avril 1885, reçus et envoyés par Adolphe Caron (1843-1908), ministre de la Milice et de la Défense, au sujet de l’envoi de troupes et de la situation dans la région du Nord-Ouest, ainsi que d’autres télégrammes et quelques lettres échangés entre les officiers postés dans le Nord-Ouest concernant les approvisionnements et le transport, le déplacement des troupes et la poursuite du chef autochtone Big Bear (1825-1888). On y trouve aussi un extrait des relevés sur les rations, des déclarations et des comptes rendus relatifs à la Force expéditionnaire du Nord-Ouest, des copies de contrats et des accords avec les routiers, des listes de routiers, des registres de correspondance du Bureau des transports et approvisionnements à Winnipeg entre avril 1885 et février 1886 (bobine T-281) et du trésorier à Winnipeg entre avril et octobre 1885 (bobine T-281), un registre de comptabilité pour le transport dans la division de Qu’Appelle, des comptes des trésoriers de districts et de régiments, des pièces justificatives, des reçus, et divers autres documents (des listes de paye et autres listes, un registre comptable) se rapportant aux routiers.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. L’agence de Duck Lake en Saskatchewan a été mise sur pied en octobre 1887. Elle avait la responsabilité des bandes du Traité no 6 (les bandes de Sandy Lake, Muskeg Lake, One Arrow, Nut Lake, Okemasis, John Smith, James Smith, William Twatts, Beardy et Kinistino).

Il s’agit d’une organisation à but non lucratif dont le mandat est de servir, de représenter et de regrouper les membres du milieu des affaires de Toronto. Fondée en 1845 sous le nom de Chambre de commerce de Toronto, elle s’est développée lentement puisqu’elle ne comptait que 60 membres en 1856. Avant les années 1860, la majorité des membres étaient des négociants, et plus particulièrement des grossistes. En 1884, elle a fusionné avec l’Association de la Halle au blé de Toronto (Toronto Corn Exchange Association). Avec ses sept étages, l’édifice qui logea la Chambre de commerce de 1892 à 1958 constituait l’un des premiers gratte-ciel de Toronto. Vers 1932-1933, la Chambre adopta officiellement le nom de Chambre de commerce du Toronto métropolitain. En 2012, elle changea de nouveau son nom pour devenir la Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. L’agence de Caradoc, située près de London, Ontario, est issue de la Division 2 de la surintendance de l’Ouest créée en juillet 1873. Cette agence avait la responsabilité des collectivités suivantes : Caradoc, Oneidas of the Thames, Munsees (Munceys) of the Thames, et Chippewas of the Thames, ainsi que Kettle et Stony Point. En avril 1969, l’agence de Caradoc a été placée sous la juridiction du district de London.

The letterbooks date from October 12, 1905, to November 4, 1908, and December 24, 1914, to April 19, 1919. There is also correspondence concerning labour organizations, social unrest, military defaulters and communist activities for the period, February 27 to April 19, 1919. There is additionally letterbooks containing replies from the Comptroller to inquiries for enlistment or advancement in the NWMP. Also, there are letterbooks dealing with routine pay increases, deductions, refunds, fines, charges for uniforms and kits, etc., of members of the force. Each letterbook includes an index of the names of members of the force concerned in the transactions. There is also letterbooks containing bank statements, covering letters for cheques, financial balance sheets and similar routine financial matters. Additionally, there is the semi-official correspondence of the Comptroller's Office which complements official correspondence. In addition to routine financial matters, it also contains correspondence relating to liaison matters and public relations such as answers to inquiries from mothers and wives whose sons or husbands went west and were not heard of again. Finally, there are letterbooks of the Comptroller's Office which reflect for the most part the financial responsibilities of the Comptroller, often merely endorsing requisitions or supply orders. The 1897 fire destroyed all letterbooks in this sub-sub-series for the years 1873-1883 and there are also broken periods from 1887-1892. La Police montée du Nord-Ouest (PMNO) est une force policière créée par le Parlement en 1873. Son but était alors de maintenir la loi et l’ordre parmi les nouveaux colons établis dans la région située à l’ouest de l’Ontario, d’aider les autochtones dans leur transition vers les réserves indiennes et d’agir en tant que symbole de la souveraineté canadienne contre l’annexion américaine. La force policière fut créée aussi en partie pour contrer les invasions des Féniens qui ont failli réussir à s’infiltrer au Manitoba en 1871. En 1904, le titre « royal » a été ajouté au nom de l’organisation. En 1920, elle s’est fusionnée avec la Dominion Police, la principale force policière créée pour tout le territoire situé à l’est du Manitoba, et la force devint alors la Gendarmerie royale du Canada (GRC). La nouvelle organisation, dont le mandat consistait à faire respecter les lois fédérales dans toutes les provinces et tous les territoires, commença immédiatement à assumer son rôle actuel de protecteur de la sécurité nationale du Canada et ses responsabilités en matière de contre-espionnage. Cette collection se compose de registres de copies de lettres créés et tenus à jour par Frederick White en sa qualité de contrôleur de la PMNO et de commissaire d’office des Territoires du Nord-Ouest. Les registres de copies de lettres couvrent les périodes du 12 octobre 1905 au 4 novembre 1908, et du 24 décembre 1914 au 19 avril 1919. Il y a aussi de la correspondance couvrant la période du 27 février au 19 avril 1919, laquelle concerne les organisations syndicales, les agitations sociales, les contrevenants miliaires et les activités communistes de l’époque. Il y a, en outre, des registres de copies de lettres contenant les réponses du contrôleur aux demandes d’enrôlement ou d’avancement dans la PMNO. On y trouve aussi des registres de copies de lettres qui traitent de questions de routine comme les augmentations de salaires, les retenues, les remboursements, les amendes, les frais pour les uniformes et les trousses, etc., des membres de la force. Chaque registre de copies de lettres comprend un index des noms des membres de la force concernés par ces transactions. Il y a également des registres de copies de lettres qui contiennent des relevés bancaires, des lettres d’accompagnement pour les chèques, des bilans financiers et d’autres documents relatifs à des questions financières courantes. On y trouve encore de la correspondance semi-officielle du Bureau du contrôleur qui complète la correspondance officielle. En plus de ces affaires courantes, il y a de la correspondance qui se rapporte aux questions de liaison et aux relations publiques comme les réponses adressées aux mères et aux épouses qui s’informent de leurs fils ou de leurs conjoints envoyés dans l’Ouest et qui sont disparus sans nouvelles. Finalement, il y a les registres de copies de lettres du Bureau du contrôleur qui concernent surtout les responsabilités financières du contrôleur, dont la principale consistait à approuver les commandes d’approvisionnement. L’incendie de 1897 a détruit tous les registres de copies de lettres dans cette sous-série pour les années 1873-1883 et pour certaines périodes entre 1887 et 1892.

The collection includes correspondence, financial records, forms, minutes and printed material relating to the activities of the Japanese Canadian Citizens' Association, 1942-1953. La Japanese Canadian Citizens Association (JCCA) a été créée en 1947 dans le but de servir d’organisme national pour les Canadiens d’origine japonaise. Son objectif premier était d’aider les requérants devant la Commission royale chargée de s’enquérir des pertes de propriétés subies par les Canadiens d’origine japonaise (Commission Bird). Après la guerre, la JCCA a aussi joué un rôle déterminant dans la lutte contre les mesures législatives discriminatoires. L’association a organisé, encouragé et parrainé des projets et des activés pour permettre aux Canadiens d’origine japonaise de contribuer à l’unité canadienne. La JCCA a œuvré en faveur de l’amélioration du climat politique, social, moral et du bien-être économique des Canadiens de descendance japonaise. En raison d’un changement dans la structure de l’organisation en 1953, la majorité des documents de cette collection ne couvrent que les premières années d’activité de l’association. Cette collection est constituée de documents provenant de la Japanese Canadian Citizens Association et ses prédécesseurs. Ils traitent des opérations financières et des activités de l’association, surtout en ce qui a trait aux réclamations suite aux évacuations. En plus des dossiers financiers de l’association et des dossiers de son conseil exécutif, cette collection comprend des mémoires présentés au gouvernement fédéral du Canada et au gouvernement provincial de la Colombie-Britannique à propos des discriminations à l’égard des Canadiens d’origine japonaise. La collection contient également des dossiers concernant des individus qui ont tenté de revenir au Canada après la Seconde Guerre mondiale, de la littérature se rapportant à diverses conférences et de la correspondance avec la Japanese American Citizens League et autres organisations semblables préoccupées par les droits civils.

De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. En 1880, un agent autochtone a été nommé pour administrer les bandes de la région du Traité no 7. D’autres agents autochtones ont éventuellement pris la relève dans les diverses divisions. En général, ils étaient chargés d’administrer les bandes Blackfoot, Stoney, Sarcee, Blood et Peigan. En 1885, les responsabilités de l’agent furent limitées à la réserve de Blackfoot, qui devint subséquemment l’agence de Blackfoot. Une agence distincte, avec des bureaux dans la réserve de Sarcee, fut mise sur pied pour administrer les bandes Sarcee et Stoney. Cette agence est devenue l’agence de Sarcee. La bobine de microfilm C-14880 contient un registre indiquant le matériel agricole, les vêtements, les produits agricoles et les fournitures destinées aux Autochtones, les outils et le bétail reçus puis distribués par le bureau de l’agence aux bandes Blackfoot, Sarcee et Stoney.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. L’agence de Babine et d’Upper Skeena (dont les bureaux sont situés à Hazelton, Colombie-Britannique) a été mise sur pied en 1889. Elle avait la responsabilité des bandes précédemment administrées par l’agence de la Côte Nord-Ouest. En 1910, la responsabilité de plusieurs de ces bandes fut transférée à la nouvelle agence de Stuart Lake. Après 1934, les mots « Upper Skeena » ont été supprimés du nom de l’agence qui adopta alors le nom d’agence de Babine. En 1971, l’agence est devenue le District de Babine. Les bobines de microfilm C-14855 et C-14857 contiennent les documents généraux d’exploitation créés et conservés par l’agence de Babine, dont divers dossiers qui, pour la plupart, traitent de questions foncières entre 1908 et 1918. Ces bobines comprennent également des dossiers portant sur des questions relevant de l’agence tels que l’éducation, le logement, le bétail, les questions médicales, les statistiques de l’état civil, les recensements, l’émancipation, les successions, les ventes de terres et les baux fonciers, ainsi que des rapports épars de l’agent. On y trouve aussi des comptes en double de l’agence de Babine (1901-1921), des rapports rédigés par l’agent de l’agence de Babine et de l’Upper Skeena River et un poème écrit par le père Ryan.

Also included are summaries of political activities or cabinet minutes which were sent to King by the Privy Council Office or the Prime Minister's Office during Mackenzie King's extended trips from Ottawa. There are also files pre-1901 that generally predate Mackenzie King's entry into politics and relate to his academic career, and are much more personal in nature. The subject index is available on microfilm reels C-4591 to C-4593. The correspondence is arranged alphabetically by author within each year, with enclosures and any replies kept together. The pages of the entire series are numbered consecutively. The Primary series correspondence is an artificial series created during the initial organization of the fonds. The correspondence was arranged into series J1, while notes, memoranda and other collateral material was placed in subject files in what is now the Memoranda and Notes series (J4). Thus material relating to the same topic will be found in both series J1 and J4. Additionally, the J1 correspondence for the years 1922 to 1932 was reboxed after the material was microfilmed, therefore the volume numbers given on reels C-2242 to C-2331 are incorrect. Reel C-4632 contains additional correspondence (approximately 150 letters) which was paginated and filed according to author and year, but was microfilmed separately. As a result, the reel numbers for this correspondence in the J1 index are incorrect. When a letter can not be located on a specific reel, researchers should consult the additional correspondence on reel C-4632. From record: Series consists of the important correspondence assembled from both the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and from Laurier House. The letters provide a comprehensive record of W.L.M. King's political correspondence with numerous individuals, covering a wide range of subjects. There are letters from cabinet ministers discussing government policy, correspondence with heads of state as well as unsolicited congratulatory telegrams. Since King was also Secretary of State for External Affairs from 1921-1926, 1926-1930 and 1935-1946, the series contains official dispatches from Canadian ambassadors and the British Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs. Other files contain summaries of current political activities or cabinet minutes which were sent to King by the Privy Council Office or the PMO during his extended trips from Ottawa. Correspondence files prior to King's work in the Department of Labour (1901) relate to his academic career, and is of a more personal nature. The correspondence is arranged alphabetically by author within each year, with enclosures and any replies kept together. The pages of the entire series are numbered consecutively. The Primary series correspondence series is an artificial series created during the initial organization of the fonds. In order to facilitate the writing of King's biography, 'important' correspondence and memoranda were removed from their original files. The correspondence was arranged into series J1, while notes, memoranda and other collateral material was placed in subject files in what is now the Memoranda and notes series (J4). Thus material relating to the same topic will be found in both series J1 and J4. Additional related information may also be found in the Prime Minister's Office series (J2) and in King's diaries (see series J13) Department of Public Works : District Engineer's Office, Pacific Region letterbooks 1889 1942 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_133812 133812 fulltext T-6063:T-6080 ; T-6161:T-6165 F Ministère des Travaux publics.

No finding aid is available. Alexander Whyte Wright (1845-1919), dirigeant syndical et politicien, fut d’abord journaliste et rédacteur en chef de journaux dans les années 1870. Sa carrière journalistique commença avec le ‘Guelph Herald’, et s’est poursuivie à la direction du ‘Sun’ d’Orangville, du ‘Stratford Herald and County of Perth Advertiser’ et du ‘Guelph Herald’. Conservateur et ardent défenseur de la Politique nationale, Wright s’est servi de ces médias pour défendre ses idées. Mais il appuyait aussi la réforme monétaire et celle du travail. En 1886, il s’est présenté comme candidat aux élections provinciales de l’Ontario. À l’époque des années 1880, Wright est devenu l’un des principaux dirigeants des Chevaliers du travail, d’abord à Toronto puis aux États-Unis, accédant au poste de secrétaire de l’ordre, puis de rédacteur en chef du ‘Journal of the Knights of Labor’ entre 1889 et 1893. Après la chute des Chevaliers du travail en 1893, Wright siégea, en 1895, à une commission royale chargée par le gouvernement conservateur fédéral d’enquêter sur les ateliers de misère. De 1909 à 1914, il fut aussi rédacteur en chef d’un journal syndicaliste-conservateur torontois intitulé le ‘Toronto Lance’. En 1912, il fut nommé à la direction de la Toronto Fire Brick Company Limited puis, en 1914, à la vice-présidence de la Commission des accidents du travail de l’Ontario. Le Dictionnaire biographique du Canada affirme que Wright était un « médiateur important entre la classe ouvrière et un parti politique traditionnel », et ajoute qu’il « représente le courant de conservatisme canadien qui embrassa la cause de la réforme. » Cette collection contient de la correspondance concernant les Chevaliers du travail en 1892 et 1893, un rapport publié et présenté à l’Assemblée de district 125 portant sur l’Assemblée générale de 1893, ainsi que divers autres documents.

It is the Canadian member of the International Council of Women (ICW). It has historically concerned itself with women's suffrage, immigration, health care, education, mass media, the environment and other issues. The Council formally began existing in October 1893 through a public meeting in Toronto where more than 1,500 women attended. The meeting was chaired by Lady Aberdeen, wife of the then-Governor General, John Campbell Hamilton-Gordon, Seventh Earl of Aberdeen. Lady Aberdeen then served as the Council's first president until her resignation in 1899. Provincial councils were organized during the years following 1893. The fonds consist of meeting minutes, letterbook correspondence and registers, newspaper clippings, and various subject files containing resolutions, reports, printed material and clippings.

There are references to all of his private business dealings including: The Canadian Salt Company, the Canadian Sardine Company, The Cuba Company, the Dominion Iron and Steel Company, the Grand Falls Company, the Guatemala Railway Company, the Laurentide Company, the Robin Hood Powder Company, and the Winnipeg Electric Railway Company. The letterbooks also contain Van Horne's correspondence with prominent political and public figures of the day. Included as well are references to Covenhoven; his model farm at East Selkirk, Manitoba; and his Montreal mansion. Except for the first letterbook dated 1893 to 1896, all of these volumes contain a contemporary index. Sir William Cornelius Van Horne (1843-1915) a, en 1888, succédé au baron Mount Stephen à la présidence du chemin de fer du Canadien Pacifique (CP). Responsable de la mise sur pied d’une division de transport maritime liée à cette ligne ferroviaire, il lança en 1891 un service de luxueux paquebots reliant Vancouver et Hong Kong. Il dirigea l’expansion ferroviaire tout en se lançant dans l’industrie hôtelière de luxe et participa à l’élaboration des plans du Château Frontenac à Québec et du Chateau Lake Louise en Alberta. Entre 1895 et 1915, il a servi à titre de gouverneur de l’Université McGill. Il fut l’un des principaux membres du Whitney Syndicate qui fut responsable de la création de la Cuba Railway Company, constituée juridiquement en 1900, à Trenton, New Jersey. Bien que, en Amérique du Nord, Van Horn se soit consacré avant tout à la Compagnie de chemin de fer du CP, il participa à une foule d’autres sociétés et y investit. Certaines, dont la Canadian Salt Company, la Laurentide Paper, la Dominion Iron and Steel, la Dominion Steel, la North West Land, l’Equitable Life Assurance, la Royal Trust, ainsi que plusieurs minoteries et compagnies d’élévateurs à grain de l’Ouest, sont devenues assez rentables. Au fil des ans, Van Horne siégea au conseil d’administration d’au moins une quarantaine de compagnies et a investi dans beaucoup d’autres. Il devint ainsi un homme exceptionnellement riche. Il se fit construire une somptueuse résidence sur la rue Sherbrooke à Montréal et une vaste résidence d’été qu’il nomma Covenhoven située dans l’île Ministers, Nouveau-Brunswick, tout près de la station balnéaire de St. Andrews appartenant au CP. « Covenhoven » fut désigné lieu historique national du Canada en 1996. Une école à Vancouver, et des rues dans plusieurs villes canadiennes, dont Montréal, Toronto, Winnipeg, Sudbury et Brandon, portent aujourd’hui son nom. Cette collection comprend 22 registres de copies de lettres d’affaires personnelles expédiées par sir William Van Horne. On y trouve des références à toutes ses relations d’affaires privées dont celles qui traitent de la Canadian Salt Company, la Canadian Sardine Company, la Cuba Company, la Dominion Iron and Steel Company, la Grand Falls Company, la Guatemala Railway Company, la Laurentide Company, la Robin Hood Powder Company, et la Winnipeg Electric Railway Company. Ces registres contiennent aussi de la correspondance de Van Horne avec des personnalités de la vie politique et publique de l’époque. On y trouve encore des références à « Covenhoven », à sa ferme modèle située à East Selkirk, Manitoba, et à son manoir de Montréal.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. En 1922, la Direction des mines et du Yukon du ministère de l’Intérieur fut divisée pour former la Direction des Mines et la Direction des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon. La responsabilité de la Direction des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon fut confiée à un directeur qui rendait compte directement au sous-ministre de l’Intérieur. De l’ancienne Direction des mines et du Yukon, la Direction des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon a conservé la responsabilité d’inspecter les mines et les puits de pétrole et de gaz naturel dans le Nord et dans les Prairies. Les fonctionnaires du gouvernement local du Yukon qui, depuis 1914, relevaient de la Direction des mines et du Yukon, relevaient dorénavant de la Direction des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon. Les fonctionnaires de la Direction dans le Nord qui occupaient des charges de registraires miniers devinrent graduellement des agents de district, ce qui leur permettait de remplir diverses tâches supplémentaires liées à l’inspection, à la réglementation et à l’administration générale. Cette collection se compose de documents créés et tenus à jour entre 1894 et 1968 par la Direction des Territoires du Nord-Ouest et du Yukon. Ces documents comprennent des dossiers du système de classification central et d’autres documents provenant des bureaux suivants : le bureau d’enregistrement central, la Section des mines, la Direction de la supervision et de l’inspection des mines, le Bureau de district de Fort Smith, l’expédition sur l’île de Baffin, la mission d’approvisionnement en mer de la station météorologique de l’Arctique, et la patrouille de l’Est de l’Arctique.

Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Suite à la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien en 1966, les agences furent regroupées pour former des unités administratives plus grandes appelées districts. La responsabilité des bandes de l’agence de Kwawkewlth (appelée parfois l’agence d’Alert Bay) et de celles de la partie nord de l’agence de la Côte Ouest furent combinées sous l’autorité du bureau de district de North Island à compter du 1er avril 1970. Le 16 décembre 1975, le nom du bureau de district de North Island fut changé pour le bureau de district de la rivière Campbell. Cette collection est constituée de documents créés et tenus à jour par le bureau de district de la rivière Campbell. Certains dossiers décrits dans cette série remontent à la période précédant cette restructuration et ont trait, pour la plupart, aux bandes qui faisaient partie de l’agence Kwawkewlth.

The original material (i.e. the passports and supporting documents themselves) was loaned to the National Archives of Canada in 1979 for microfilming (but this material is not included here) and it was then returned to Washington, D.C., to be subsequently sent to the Soviet Union. However, this card index series includes identity information for those aforementioned 11,400 or so individuals, which may be of use to genealogists. The index cards essentially provide information on Russian subjects who applied to the consulates for various documents. In most cases, these individuals were seeking new Russian passports following the change of political regime in 1917. They may have also sought passports to prove that they were Russian subjects in order to avoid being conscripted into the Canadian Expeditionary Force during the First World War. They may have additionally applied for travel papers to Russia or visas. Whatever the reason, these individuals had to give incontrovertible proof that they were Russian subjects. Proving such identity was a serious concern for Russian consulate officers and Canadian officials, because there were subjects belonging to enemy powers during the First World War who could easily pass themselves off as belonging to a Russian-controlled region of the world. A finding aid to the collection is found at the start of each microfilm reel with an explanation of what the field areas mean on the index cards. These reels are the index to this collection: (From record) Collection consists of documents primarily in Russian, with another half dozen east-European languages frequently used. The collection contains a variety of administrative documents one would found in a consular office. Most of the documents are handwritten, or have a significant portion of their contents in handwritten form. The collection includes a large number of passports, approximately 4,000 in total, representing a wide variety of Russian internal and external passport applications and supporting documents such as verification of identity, citizenship, birth and baptismal records (approximately 11,400 files). There are military documents relating to military service in Russian or Canadian/British forces by Russian subjects. Other official documents include work permits, the correspondence of consular officers with other diplomatic officials in North America, Russia and elsewhere, including cables in cypher. Of particular interest are documents dealing with immigration, deportation and trade matters. Photographs are attached to most of the passports and to other documents in the collection (approx. 10,000). The collection was microfilmed on 16 mm film and listed as reels M-7591 to M-7672, M-8270 and M-8271 (84 reels).

De 1906 à 1921, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense était responsable des forces militaires canadiennes. Ce ministère était placé sous l’autorité d’un ministre de la Milice et de la Défense. Auparavant, soit de 1855 à 1906, le ministre de la Milice et de la Défense était uniquement responsable des unités de milice canadiennes, puisque l’armée britannique était toujours stationnée au Canada. Lorsque l’armée britannique a retiré ses forces du Canada en 1906, le ministère fut chargé de l’administration de toutes les forces terrestres du Canada. En 1921, la Marine royale canadienne passa sous la juridiction de ce ministère qui adopta alors le nom de ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et du Service naval. En janvier 1923, le ministère fut renommé ministère de la Défense nationale en raison de la fusion entre le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense et le Service naval, mais aussi de sa fusion avec le Conseil de l’Aéronautique canadien. Plus de 7,000 soldats et employés de soutien du Canada ont participé à la Seconde Guerre des Boers entre octobre 1899 et mai 1902. Ce conflit est devenu le plus important engament militaire impliquant des soldats canadiens entre la Confédération et la Première Guerre mondiale. En fin de compte, 270 soldats sont morts au cours de la Guerre des Boers. Au début, l’opinion canadienne était divisée sur sa participation à cette guerre car certains ne voulaient pas que l’Angleterre exerce un contrôle sur le Canada dans les conflits armés auxquels le pays prendrait part. Beaucoup de citoyens appuyaient l’empire britannique et souhaitaient que le premier ministre, sir Wilfrid Laurier (1841-1919), soutienne les Britanniques dans ce conflit. Par contre, beaucoup de citoyens francophones percevaient l’impérialisme britannique comme une menace constante pour leur souveraineté nationale. Finalement, pour apaiser les citoyens qui voulaient participer à la guerre et éviter la colère de ceux qui étaient contre, Laurier envoya 1,000 volontaires sous le commandement du lieutenant-colonel William D. Otter (1843-1929) afin d’aider la confédération dans cette guerre. Les volontaires furent envoyés aux Britanniques moyennant la condition que les Britanniques paient les dépenses du bataillon après son arrivée en Afrique du Sud. Cette collection est constituée de documents relatifs à la Force d’opérations spéciales envoyée en Afrique du Sud. Les documents de cette collection se rapportent à la paye et aux indemnités, et aux indemnités de départ payées aux familles des soldats, ainsi qu’aux listes de paye du personnel démobilisé à Québec à leur retour. On y trouve aussi des demandes et des offres de service (1899-1902), des câblogrammes et de la correspondance au sujet des victimes, des listes nominatives des hommes hospitalisés en Afrique du Sud, de la correspondance relative aux unités, des compte rendus des comités chargés d’estimer la valeur des chevaux offerts à la Force d’opérations spéciales (1899-1900), de la correspondance concernant les gratuités, les médailles et les services médicaux, des listes nominatives des unités, des ordres, des rapports et des journaux.

La Police montée du Nord-Ouest (PMNO) est une force policière créée par le Parlement en 1873. Son but était alors de maintenir la loi et l’ordre parmi les nouveaux colons établis dans la région située à l’ouest de l’Ontario, d’aider les autochtones dans leur transition vers les réserves indiennes et d’agir en tant que symbole de la souveraineté canadienne contre l’annexion américaine. La force policière fut créée aussi en partie pour contrer les invasions des Féniens qui ont failli réussir à s’infiltrer au Manitoba en 1871. En 1904, le titre « royal » a été ajouté au nom de l’organisation. En 1920, elle s’est fusionnée avec la Dominion Police, la principale force policière créée pour tout le territoire situé à l’est du Manitoba, et la force devint alors la Gendarmerie royale du Canada (GRC). La nouvelle organisation, dont le mandat consistait à faire respecter les lois fédérales dans toutes les provinces et tous les territoires, commença immédiatement à assumer son rôle actuel de protecteur de la sécurité nationale du Canada et ses responsabilités en matière de contre-espionnage. Cette collection se compose d’index et de registres de crimes. La plupart des infractions commises avant 1918, comme le vol, les voies de fait, l’ivresse, la cruauté envers les animaux, le viol et autres affaires semblables, ayant été portées devant des magistrats de la PMNO, ou pour lesquelles une accusation aurait été portée par un membre du corps de police, sont indiquées dans ces index et registres de crimes, avec les mentions concernant les punitions ou les amendes imposées aux contrevenants. Ces documents renferment également des informations sur les classifications propres à la guerre, telles que les mouvements des étrangers, les prisonniers de guerre, les certificats de libération conditionnelle, les contrevenants à la Loi du service militaire, les activités des bolchéviques et la saisie de stupéfiants.

Cette Commission fut mandatée pour enquêter et faire rapport sur les circonstances qui ont incité des travailleurs italiens originaires d’autres pays à immigrer à Montréal au début de 1904, sur les personnes impliquées directement ou indirectement dans la promotion cette immigration et sur les moyens et les méthodes utilisés pour provoquer une telle immigration. La raison d’être de cette Commission était que le gouvernement fédéral avait reçu des plaintes relatives à l’afflux considérable de travailleurs italiens en chômage (au moins 6 000) à Montréal. Ils y avaient été attirés par la promesse d’y trouver immédiatement de l’emploi dans le secteur de la construction ferroviaire. Un agent du nom d’Antonio Cordasco fit publier des annonces dans La Patria Italiana et la Corriere del Canada, deux journaux italiens publiés à Montréal, stipulant que 10,000 travailleurs italiens pourraient trouver de l’emploi au Canada. Cordasco envoya des copies de ces journaux en Italie et prit des arrangements avec des agents en Italie et aux États-Unis pour recruter le nombre d’ouvriers requis. Toutefois, lors de leur arrivée, beaucoup de ces immigrants ont découvert qu’aucun emploi n’était disponible et que la possibilité qu’un entrepreneur de chemins de fer retienne leur candidature s’ils payaient une redevance à Cordasco demeurait très faible. Cette situation suscita une grande détresse chez les immigrants tout en suscitant beaucoup de mécontentement au sein de la classe ouvrière de Montréal où le marché du travail était sursaturé. Devant l’intensification du mécontentement, le gouvernement canadien décida, en juin 1904, d’étendre le mandat du juge John Winchester, commissaire déjà chargé d’enquêter sur les pratiques d’embauche dans l’industrie ferroviaire, en créant une Commission royale. La Commission tint ses audiences à Montréal du 30 juin au 26 juillet 1904. Elle reçut plus de soixante pièces à conviction, suite à quoi elle présenta ses conclusions en 1905. Ce fonds comprend la correspondance du juge Winchester, d’Antonio Cordasco, d’Alberto Dini, etc., ainsi que des coupures de presse et des exemplaires de La Patria Italiana, de la Corriere del Canada et du Giuseppe Garibaldi, des brochures de la Société italienne d’aide à l’immigration, des annonces qui incluent les dates de départ des navires à passagers, et d’autres documents connexes. Une liste des dossiers thématiques se trouve au début de la bobine de microfilm T-3473.

Après avoir travaillé neuf ans comme imprimeur, il fut engagé, en août 1904, comme reporteur au journal « The Alloa Journal » où il demeura jusqu’à sa retraite en 1946. MacMillan a publié des poèmes et des articles dans divers périodiques et a entretenu une correspondance avec divers amis écrivains, dont Lucy Maud Montgomery (1874-1942), une écrivaine canadienne surtout connue à l’échelle mondiale pour son œuvre à succès « Anne…la maison aux pignons verts » publiée en 1908. Montgomery publia encore 20 autres romans, ainsi que 530 nouvelles, 500 poèmes et 30 essais. La majorité de ses romans se situaient sur l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard. En 1935, elle fut nommée Officier de l’Ordre de l’Empire britannique. La résidence de Montgomery à Leaskdale Manse, en Ontario, ainsi que le secteur entourant les Pignons Verts avec sa résidence de Cavendish sur l’Île-du-Prince-Édouard ont tous deux été désignés lieux historiques nationaux du Canada. En 1943, Montgomery fut elle-même désignée personne d’importance historique nationale au Canada. Cette collection est constituée de la correspondance littéraire et personnelle de l’écrivaine canadienne Lucy Maud Montgomery (1903-1941), ainsi que de quelques œuvres littéraires de l’écrivain et journaliste écossais, George Boyd MacMillan, y compris quelques lettres personnelles datant de 1903 et 1951.

This sub-series also includes one register (volume 3086) which shows, by port, the vessels remaining on the registry books of that port as well as those closed-out, 1926-1932. Beginning in 1965, the Ship Registration Division abandoned the registers in favour of ships' ledger cards. These cards contain the same registration information as the registers of vessels closed-out. They are arranged in chronological order and within each year in alphabetical order by name of vessel. Ships' ledger cards from 1965-1983 are available on reels T-11923 to T-11933, T-11858 to T-11870.

Il s’agit d’une organisation à but non lucratif dont le mandat est de servir, de représenter et de regrouper les membres du milieu des affaires de Toronto. Fondée en 1845 sous le nom de Chambre de commerce de Toronto, elle s’est développée lentement puisqu’elle ne comptait que 60 membres en 1856. Avant les années 1860, la majorité des membres étaient des négociants, et plus particulièrement des grossistes. En 1884, elle a fusionné avec l’Association de la Halle au blé de Toronto (Toronto Corn Exchange Association). Avec ses sept étages, l’édifice qui logea la Chambre de commerce de 1892 à 1958 constituait l’un des premiers gratte-ciel de Toronto. Vers 1932-1933, la Chambre adopta officiellement le nom de Chambre de commerce du Toronto métropolitain. En 2012, elle changea de nouveau son nom pour devenir la Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto.

Department of Labour, Economics and Research Branch : Strikes and lockout files 1907 1978 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_134359 134359 fulltext T-2684:T-2714 ; T-2744:T-2766 ; T-2967:T-3039 ; T-3398:T-3422 ; T-3439:T-3469 ; T-4070:T-4143 ; T-6170:T-6217 ; T-6663:T-6667 Canada Department of Labour F Ministère du Travail, Direction de l’économique et des recherches : Dossiers sur les grèves et les lock-out This collection also contains some research material on strikes and lockouts in Canada compiled by the Economics and Research Branch for use in its ongoing publications programme on this topic, as well as files on some key Canadian strikes which were separated (at some time) out of the regular series of files collected chronologically. These volumes include, therefore, the following kinds of material: Trade Disputes Press Clippings, 1937-1954, 1957-1962, including both Canadian and foreign disputes; Trade Dispute Records, 1900-1944; Indexes and statistical analysis of strikes and lockouts in Canada, 1900-1945; Weekly Strike Lists, 1953- 1959; Clippings on key strikes in Canadian labour history including Winnipeg, 1919; Stratford, 1933; Relief Workers, Vancouver, 1938-1939; Windsor (Ford), 1945; CPR Strikes, 1957; Woodworkers, Newfoundland, 1958; CBC producers, Montreal, 1959. As well, strikes and lockouts on railroads exclusively, 1907-1937, are kept separately. Le ministère du Travail fut créé en 1900. Les objectifs initiaux du Ministère visaient la préparation et la publication de la « Gazette du travail », le règlement des conflits ouvriers, la promotion des salaires équitables et des bonnes conditions de travail, et l’administration des lois sur le travail. Au départ, l’administration de ce Ministère relevait de la responsabilité du ministre des Postes, et ce, jusqu’en 1909, date de la création d’un portefeuille de Cabinet distinct, celui de ministre du Travail. Au cours des ans, le Ministère s’est vu attribuer de nouvelles responsabilités. Dès 1918, il s’est impliqué dans la création d’un réseau national d’agences pour l’emploi puis, après 1926, dans la mise en œuvre du premier régime de pensions de vieillesse au Canada. En 1940, le Ministère a commencé à administrer les prestations d’assurance-chômage. À partir de 1945, il s’est impliqué de plus en plus dans la création, la planification et la gestion du Code canadien du travail. En 1954, le Ministère a créé le Bureau de la main d’œuvre féminine, le premier service du gouvernement fédéral chargé de défendre les intérêts des femmes sur le marché du travail. En 1966, certaines fonctions du Ministère ont été transférées au ministère de la Main d’œuvre et de l’Immigration et au ministère de l’Expansion économique régionale nouvellement créés. En 1975, le ministère du Travail a été officiellement renommé Travail Canada. En 1996, tous les services de Travail Canada ont été mutés au ministère du Développement des ressources humaines. Depuis 2003, ce portefeuille relève du ministère des Ressources humaines et du Développement social. Aujourd’hui, les initiatives du marché du travail sont du ressort du ministre du Travail et du Logement. Selon le Rapport annuel du ministère du Travail pour 1953-1954, la Direction de l’économique et des recherches « sert d’agence centrale fédérale pour l’analyse économique et les recherches dans le domaine du marché du travail […] incluant des sujets tels que les salaires, les heures de travail, les conditions de travail, les syndicats, les négociations collectives, l’utilisation de la main d’œuvre, l’emploi et le chômage, la productivité, ainsi que des études spéciales sur les professions et autres ». En 1966, la responsabilité des divisions de la Direction de l’économique et des recherches touchant le marché du travail, l’emploi et les ressources de la main d’œuvre furent transférée au ministère de la Citoyenneté et de l’immigration (devenu peu après le ministère de la Main d’œuvre et de l’Immigration). Lors de la réorganisation ministérielle de 1975-1976, la Direction des données sur le travail a été créée à partir de l’ancienne Direction de l’économique et des recherches. Suite à diverses réorganisations ministérielles, la Direction de la recherche législative est devenue, en 1984, la Section de l’analyse législative et de la recherche à l’intérieur de la Division de l’économie et des relations industrielles. Cette collection se compose de dossiers relatifs aux grèves et aux lock-out, lesquels ont été créés et entretenus par la Direction de l’économique et des recherches et ses prédécesseurs. Ces dossiers comportent les formulaires ministériels ayant été retournés par l’employeur et le syndicat impliqué dans chaque conflit. Ils donnent des détails sur les raisons du conflit, le nombre de travailleurs affectés et la durée du conflit. Il y a aussi des coupures de presse et de la correspondance concernant le conflit. Il y a aussi des documents de recherche sur les grèves et les lock-out au Canada élaborés par la Direction de l’économique et des recherches à l’intention de son programme de publications sur le sujet. On y trouve encore des dossiers sur certaines grandes grèves survenues au Canada. Ces dossiers ont été (à un moment donné) retirés de la série principale des dossiers qui sont classés par ordre chronologique. Ces volumes contiennent donc divers types de documents : des coupures de presse sur des conflits de travail (tant au Canada qu’à l’étranger), 1937-1954 et 1957-1962; des dossiers sur des conflits de travail, 1900-1944; des index et des analyses statistiques sur les grèves et les lock-out au Canada, 1900-1945; des listes hebdomadaires de grèves, 1953-1959; des coupures de presse sur les grandes grèves ayant marqué l’histoire canadienne, dont celles de Winnipeg en 1919, de Stratford en 1933, des travailleurs humanitaires de Vancouver en 1938-1939, de Windsor (Ford) en 1945, du CN en 1957, des travailleurs du bois à Terre-Neuve en 1958 et des producteurs de Radio-Canada à Montréal en 1959. Quant aux dossiers relatifs aux grèves et aux lock-out dans le domaine des chemins de fer entre 1907 et 1937, ils sont conservés séparément. Il ne semble pas y avoir d’instruments de recherche au début des bobines de microfilm. Les documents de cette collection sont publiés tantôt en anglais, tantôt en français.

Department of External Affairs : Office of the Under-Secretary of State for External Affairs 1908 1952 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_134302 134302 fulltext T-1745:T-1771 ; T-1790:T-1813 ; T-2201:T-2209 Canada Department of External Affairs F Ministère des Affaires extérieures : Cabinet du sous-secrétaire d'État aux Affaires extérieures This collection consists of records that reflect the operations of the Department of External Affairs as a whole and the Office of the Under-Secretary of State in particular. Canada's external relations are covered in files on Imperial relations, the League of Nations, the Second World War, trade and immigration questions, Canadian-American economic and defence relations and the United Nations. The role of the Under-Secretary in Canadian domestic issues is shown in files on Dominion-Provincial relations and conferences, Japanese Immigration and the internment of Japanese-Canadians during the Second World War, internal security issues and numerous files on the Canadian north. The Under-Secretary's administrative responsibilities are covered in the files on the operation of the department, personnel related questions and the establishment of foreign consuls Border entry lists: 1908-1918, 1925-1935 1908 1935 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_161375 161375 fulltext T-5461:T-5501 ; T-15346:T-15393 F Listes d'entrées: 1908-1918, 1925-1935 This collection consists of border entry lists for the period 1908-1918 and 1925-1935. The border entry records differ in form and organization from the ships passenger manifests. The lists record the names of immigrants who were accepted or rejected upon presentation at border ports of entry. Information recorded usually includes: age, occupation, country of birth or citizenship, mode of travel to the border, point of departure (country or U.S. State), including interim origin if travel was indirect, intended destination, amount of money on hand, and notes. Lists of rejected immigrants provide reasons for rejection. Many lists consist of blank or nil returns; the gaps and missing lists in many port series may be due to the failure of officials to submit returns in months in which no immigrants arrived. It is also believed that many persons arriving in Canada in this period were never listed. Reasons for this include the absence of Immigration officers at some crossing points, the closure of numerous ports at the outbreak of World War I, and the inability of officers at some busy ports to cover all arrivals. The 1908 to 1918 border entry lists are not indexed. They are grouped on the microfilm geographically, by province and port of entry, although many groups are in disorder or are interfiled with lists from neighbouring border ports. The April 1925 to 1935 lists include the following additional details: place of birth; name and address of relative, friend or employer to which the immigrant is destined; name, relationship and address of nearest relative in the country from which the immigrant came; admitted or rejected. Children born in the United States to Canadian citizens/residents are listed alone, as their parents were considered Returning Canadians, not immigrants. The lists from January to March 1925 are arranged alphabetically by port; they are not indexed. The lists from April 1925 to 1935 are arranged chronologically by year. Within each year, the lists for each month for all ports are filed together. A list at the start of each volume provides pages numbers for each port. Entries for individual immigrants can be located by using the volume and page numbers found in the index.

The file numbers are arranged consecutively in the records within each year, but not according to subject matter. Under this system, a subject may have a different file number from year to year. Although the Department of External Affairs screened and destroyed numerous files which were no longer of operational value to the Department, these records still reflect most aspects of the Department's operations from its beginnings in 1909 until after the Second World War. The registers and indexes were used by the registry office for maintaining the 1939 Series records within the Department.

Il s’agit d’une organisation à but non lucratif dont le mandat est de servir, de représenter et de regrouper les membres du milieu des affaires de Toronto. Fondée en 1845 sous le nom de Chambre de commerce de Toronto, elle s’est développée lentement puisqu’elle ne comptait que 60 membres en 1856. Avant les années 1860, la majorité des membres étaient des négociants, et plus particulièrement des grossistes. En 1884, elle a fusionné avec l’Association de la Halle au blé de Toronto (Toronto Corn Exchange Association). Avec ses sept étages, l’édifice qui logea la Chambre de commerce de 1892 à 1958 constituait l’un des premiers gratte-ciel de Toronto. Vers 1932-1933, la Chambre adopta officiellement le nom de Chambre de commerce du Toronto métropolitain. En 2012, elle changea de nouveau son nom pour devenir la Chambre de commerce de la région métropolitaine de Toronto.

En 1917, le ministère de l’Immigration et de la Colonisation fut créé. Depuis lors, un ministère de l’Immigration distinct a toujours existé sauf durant les années 1936 à 1949 quand l’immigration fut placée sous la responsabilité du ministère des Mines et des Ressources. Aujourd’hui, toutes les questions touchant l’immigration et la citoyenneté relèvent du ministère de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration Canada créé en 1994 suite à une restructuration du gouvernement fédéral. Cette collection se compose des fiches d’examen sur les enfants créées par les agents de l’immigration lorsqu’ils procédaient à l’évaluation périodique des enfants amenés au Canada par divers organismes. Ces inspections étaient menées par des inspecteurs ministériels ou par des particuliers désignés par eux, tels que les ministres locaux. Les huit bobines de cette collection contiennent les fiches d’examens classées en ordre alphabétique des noms de famille des enfants. La plupart des fiches datent de 1920 à 1932, mais quelques-unes remontent jusqu’à 1913. Chaque fiche comprend les informations suivantes : le nom, l’âge ou la date de naissance, la date d’arrivée, le nom du navire, le lieu de résidence ou de l’agence, les dates et les résultats des inspections, et le nom et l’adresse de la famille d’accueil. Beaucoup de ces fichent renferment des informations pour le suivi. La plupart des enfants ont été envoyés au Canada par des organismes en Grande-Bretagne comme Barnado, Middlemore, Quarrier, l’Armée du Salut, la Catholic Emigration Association et la British Immigration and Colonization Association. On y trouve aussi des fiches d’examen pour des enfants européens, dont ceux amenés au Canada par l’Armenian Relief Association of Canada et la Canadian Jewish War Orphans Committee.

The remainder of the Sessional Papers are unpublished. Generally speaking, the Sessional Papers are arranged by Session of Parliament and in numerical order as they were tabled in the House of Commons.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Cette collection est constituée de dossiers se rapportant à la conception, à la construction et à l’entretien des diverses structures bâties entre 1930 et 1954 par ou pour le compte de la direction des Affaires indiennes.

As of 2013, it represented the interests of over 3 million affiliated workers. The CLC is the umbrella organization for dozens of affiliated Canadian and international unions, as well as provincial federations of labour and regional labour councils. The collection consists of files of the Legislation Department and of the Government Employees Department. The Government Employees Department was established at the CLC's founding in 1956. Its first main task was to get full collective bargaining rights for federal, provincial and municipal government employees. The Department also had responsibilities in the areas of unemployment insurance, occupational health and safety, workers' compensation, and adult occupational training. The Department dissolved in 1976. The Legislation Department, also founded in 1956, sought to improve the legislative environment for organized workers. The Department informed the federal government, Parliament, and federal boards and agencies of the CLC's positions on legislative issues; liaised with the federal government, and monitored the impact of federal legislation on workers and the labour movement (in such areas as unemployment insurance, taxation, pensions, labour relations, medicare, trade, and human rights). Arrangement note: While the Legislation Department and the Government Employees Department were nominally separate entities, in practice for much of their existence (from 1956 until 1972) they shared the same director and assistant directors. There was a natural tendency for records from the two departments to be kept together; while some blocks of files relate exclusively to one department or the other, many blocks (and even some files) contain records documenting the functions of both departments. Because of this intermingling, the records of the two departments have been described as one series Aimé Breton fonds 1935 1977 http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_98140 98140 fulltext C-11034 Breton F Fonds Aimé Breton This collection consists of correspondence relating to discoveries of Aimé Breton and attempts to gain financial renumeration from his mining discoveries.

En janvier 1923, le ministère de la Milice et de la Défense, qui avait été responsable de la défense du Canada de 1906 à 1921, est devenu le ministère de la Défense nationale (MDN) par suite de la fusion antérieure du ministère du Service naval, du ministère de la Milice et de la Défense, et de l’incorporation du Conseil de l’air au sein du ministère de la Défense nationale. En regroupant ces organismes sous l’autorité d’un seul ministre, le gouvernement reconnaissait la nécessité de conserver des forces militaires polyvalentes. Le gouvernement souhaitait aussi réaliser des économies administratives et un certain degré d’unification au niveau de l’administration et de la direction des forces. L’éclatement de la Deuxième Guerre mondiale a entraîné une importante expansion et restructuration du ministère. Bien qu’aucune loi n’ait été à l’origine de la création de ces services individuels, on procéda à la nomination d’un ministre de la Défense nationale pour l’air en mai 1940 et d’un ministre de la Défense nationale pour la marine en juillet de la même année afin d’alléger les responsabilités du ministre de la Défense nationale. Il y avait donc, en pratique, trois ministères distincts. Après la guerre, en 1946, l’organisation du ministère reprit sa forme d’avant-guerre. En février 1968, les trois services (armée, aviation et marine) furent unifiés pour former les Forces armées canadiennes. En octobre 1972, la section civile et la section militaire d’Ottawa furent fusionnées en un seul Quartier général de la Défense nationale. Si l’on tient compte du personnel militaire et du personnel civil, le MDN demeure, depuis 1945, le plus gros des ministères avec un budget de fonctionnement qui se situe constamment parmi les trois plus élevés. Cette collection est constituée de documents de la Cour martiale de l’Armée canadienne pour la période 1939 à 1945.

L’Aviation royale du Canada (ARC) fut établie en 1920 pour succéder à la force aérienne de deux escadrons qui a connu une existence éphémère en Europe durant la Première Guerre mondiale. Cette nouvelle force aérienne, connue sous le nom de Force aérienne du Canada, était administrée par le Bureau de l’air et se spécialisait surtout dans des opérations civiles telles que la foresterie, la photographie aérienne et les patrouilles de lutte contre la contrebande. En 1923, le ministère de la Défense nationale a pris la relève du Bureau de l’air puis, en 1924, la force aérienne s’est vue attribuer le titre de royale pour devenir l’ARC. Durant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, l’ARC est devenue la quatrième force aérienne en importance parmi les forces alliées. Aujourd’hui, l’ARC compte 258 aéronefs avec équipage et neuf véhicules aériens sans pilotes (UAV), ainsi que 14,500 membres dans la Force régulière, 2,600 membres dans la Première réserve et 2,500 civils.

There appears to be a table of contents of the exhibits at the start of microfilm reel T-3423, but the quality of the images appear to be poor. Cette Commission royale, désignée aussi sous le nom de Commission Kellock-Taschereau, fut nommée en février 1946 par le premier ministre William Lyon Mackenzie King (1874-1950) pour enquêter sur « l’affaire Gouzenko ». Igor Gouzenko (1919-1982), un chiffreur à l’ambassade soviétique à Ottawa, fit défection au Canada en 1945 après y avoir découvert qu’un réseau d’espionnage communiste au Canada transmettait des renseignements secrets à l’Union soviétique. Cette Commission royale fut extrêmement controversée. Elle a donné lieu à l’un des premiers procès en Amérique du Nord ayant porté sur le communisme et l’espionnage. Il s’agissait aussi de l’une des premières manifestations de la guerre froide et la réaction à celle-ci s’est révélée emblématique de la « peur rouge ». Ce fonds comprend les comptes rendus des audiences tenues à huis-clos et les pièces à conviction. Il semble y avoir une table des matières pour les pièces à conviction au début de la bobine de microfilm T-3423, mais les images sont de mauvaise qualité.

En 1755, la Couronne britannique a établi un département britannique des Affaires indiennes et, entre 1755 et 1841, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes relevait des surintendants des Affaires indiennes. À compter de 1843, les affaires indiennes étaient placées sous l’autorité des gouverneurs généraux qui déléguaient souvent une grande partie de leurs responsabilités à des secrétaires civils. En 1860, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes passa du gouvernement de la Grande-Bretagne à la province du Canada où des commissions du ministère des Terres de la Couronne en assumèrent la responsabilité. Entre 1873 et 1966, la responsabilité des affaires indiennes releva de divers ministères. Après la création du ministère des Affaires indiennes en 1880, le ministre de l’Intérieur occupait également le poste de surintendant général des Affaires indiennes. De 1950 à 1965, le portefeuille des Affaires indiennes relevait du ministre de la Citoyenneté et de l’Immigration. En octobre 1966, le ministère des Affaires indiennes et du Nord canadien fut créé. Aujourd’hui, ce ministère porte le nom d’Affaires autochtones et Développement du Nord Canada. Un agent a été nommé dès 1871 pour administrer les affaires de la population Mi’kmac du comté du Cap-Breton. En 1902, la responsabilité du comté du Cap-Breton fut partagée, un agent ayant été nommé pour la seule réserve d’Eskasoni et un autre (en poste à Sydney) pour les autres parties du comté. En 1942, une importante restructuration administrative fut entreprise en Nouvelle-Écosse et le nombre des agences dans la province fut réduit à deux, l’une étant basée à Eskasoni pour toutes les bandes de l’île du Cap-Breton, et l’autre étant basée à Shubenacadie pour les bandes du continent. En 1971, les agences d’Eskasoni et de Shubenacadie ont été fusionnées pour former le district de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Cette collection se compose des dossiers du système central de gestion des dossiers créés et conservés par l’agence d’Eskasoni.

These documents pertain to French history in North America from the 1600s to 1800s. Subjects include the Recollects, trade and commerce, travels and discoveries, missions, trappers, colonial administration, relations between the French and Iroquois, a history of the French Navy and information on the French colonies, among other things. There is a typewritten description of items on microfilm reel C-1333 at the start of the reel. All info from records directly Antoine de Loménie, seigneur de La Ville-aux-Clercs, secrétaire d'État sous Henri IV et Louis XIII, fit transcrire dans certains dépôts d'archives des pièces jugées utiles aux hommes publics qui voulaient étudier soit les affaires étrangères, soit l'administration intérieure du royaume. Cette collection de documents, léguée à son fils, le comte de Brienne, fut déposée à la bibliothèque du roi en 1661. Quatre documents ont été transcrits par les Archives nationales du Canada dans cette Collection, qui regroupe au total les volumes 6972 à 7328. Il s'agit d'un Mémoire [non signé et non daté] sur le commerce d'Amérique et la concurrence des Espagnols, d'offres faites au roi par De Monts pour la colonisation de l'Acadie (1603) avec les observations faites par le Roi sur celles-ci et enfin de formule de congé pour la navigation et le commerce (1627). Ces documents sont tous tirés du volume 7287. C-9196 Cette sous-série contient la Collection de l'abbé Eusèbe Renaudot (1646-1720), éminent orientaliste, membre de l'Académie française. Renaudot et l'un de ses correspondants, l'abbé Claude Bernou, appartenaient à un groupe restreint d'érudits et de personnes influentes qui affichaient la plus grande curiosité pour les explorations au Nouveau-Monde et soutenaient le parti des Récollets, de La Salle et de Frontenac, contre les Jésuites et leurs alliés. La Collection Renaudot est contenue dans les volumes 7483 à 7497. Parmi les documents transcrits et microfilmés par les Archives nationales du Canada, on retrouve de la correspondance Bernou-Renaudot (vol. 7497) ainsi que des documents recueillis par ce dernier (vol. 7485) couvrant la période 1670-1700 et portant sur les sujets suivants: voyages et découvertes (Jolliet, La Salle, Tonty, d'Iberville), géographie de l'Amérique du Nord, missions, postes français, coureurs des bois, relations franco-iroquoises, administration coloniale, etc. C-9196 Pierre Margry (1818-1894), archiviste et historien, effectua dans les années 1840 et 1850 divers travaux de recherche et de transcription de documents pour le compte de l'État de New York et des gouvernements américain et canadien. Son cabinet aux Archives de la Marine devint, dans la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, le carrefour des américanistes en quête de renseignements ou de copies de documents. Ses relations avec quelques personnalités américaines lui valurent l'aide du Congrès des États-Unis pour publier son ouvrage intitulé Découvertes et établissements des Français dans l'ouest et dans le sud de l'Amérique septentrionale (1879-1888). Au cours de sa carrière d'archiviste, Margry copia et fit copier dans plusieurs dépôts d'archives (Marine, Guerre, Affaires étrangères, Bibliothèque nationale,etc.) quantité de pièces relatives à l'histoire de la marine et des colonies françaises. Il obtint aussi, par achats, dons ou emprunts, un certain nombre de documents originaux. L'ensemble des matériaux ainsi recueillis, auxquels s'ajoutent des notes de cet érudit et une partie de sa correspondance, constituent l'essentiel de cette collection qui couvre les volumes 9255 à 9510. Les Archives nationales ont décrit, transcrit et fait microfilmer un grand nombre de documents (526) contenus dans cette sous-série et concernant le Canada ou l'Amérique du Nord. C-9196 to C-9197 and C-1333 Cette série des Nouvelles acquisitions françaises de la Bibliothèque nationale de France comprend essentiellement les collections de documents en langue française que le département des manuscrits de la Bibliothèque nationale a reçues, et continue de recevoir depuis 1862. Elle renferme également plusieurs petites collections et documents divers acquis avant 1862, mais qu'on avait omis de classer dans la division des Fonds français. Les documents copiés par les Archives nationales du Canada proviennent surtout de quatre collections, la Collection Brienne, la Collection Renaudot, la Collection Margry, la Collection Arnoul; quelques documents isolés ont été regroupés dans une cinquième sous-série.

King-Stewart Family Fonds, Nova Scotia http://heritage.canadiana.ca/view/oocihm.lac_mikan_100748 100748 fulltext C-10337 F Famille King-Stewart, Nouvelle-Écosse : Instrument de recherche no 577 This collections includes packets of letters exchanged from 1829 to 1832 between Harry King, a barrister of Windsor, Nova Scotia, and his fiancee Margaret Halliburton Fraser, in Halifax, Nova Scotia. There are also further correspondences between other members of the Fraser and King families, as well as other families in Nova Scotia from 1803-1901. The letters between Margaret Fraser and Harry King are mostly of a personal nature but the letters do reveal the activities occurring in Windsor and Halifax, Nova Scotia. Margaret Fraser lived in Halifax with her aunt and uncle, Simon and Elizabeth Robie. Simon Robie was a part of an active political and social scene in Halifax, and often times Margaret’s letters describe military balls, bazaars, and Government House activities, although she describes such events with a slight disapproval. The couple married in 1835, and there is a further batch of letters of the married couple writing to one another when they found themselves separated. In addition to the ‘love’ letters between Harry King and Margaret Fraser there is a collection of official documents and mementos for the petition made to George, Prince of Wales from the crew of the LIVERPOOL PACKET. The petition asked for a Commission to be honoured for the privateers who captured 50 American vessels during the war of 1812. The petition came from Alexander Stewart, Master of the Rolls in Nova Scotia. The Finding Aid to the collection (no. 577) can be found at the beginning of the reel.
