Christopher Sholes Research Paper
The 1867 Typewriter was an amazing invention. It allowed people in the 1800's to print papers and
articles quickly. This invention led to the computer and cash register. The first working typewriter
was invented by Christopher Latham Sholes in 1867. Sholes was born on February 14, 1819. Sholes
lived with his mom, dad and younger brother Charles. He went to school to become an apprentice to
a printer. Sholes then completed his apprenticeship and became a newspaper editor in 1849. After
working a year for the newspaper company, Sholes left. He then served in the Wisconsin State
Legislature as a Democrat. Sholes then became a Republican shortly after being hired. In 1867
Sholes left the Legislature. He had an idea. He came up with the plans for the first practical
typewriter. Then in 1868 he ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
For 3 years Sholes could not sell his typewriter to anyone. Then in 1873, Sholes licensed the patent
to Remington and Sons. Sholes and Remington and Sons signed a contract to mass produce the first
useful typewriter, the Remington Model 1. People started to buy typewriters because of the famous
brand of Remington and Sons. Later in Sholes's life, he sold most of his interest in the typewriter.
On February 17, 1890, Sholes died after battling a nine year fight with tuberculosis. Today, Sholes is
remembered as "The Father of the Typewriter." (Daniels) The 1867 Typewriter was an amazing
invention that allowed people to print documents and newspapers easily. This invention was
innovative to the people of that time period. The 1867 Typewriter was a very complex machine to
use. It worked like a normal typewriter but it was very bulky in size. It had an alphabetical character
layout. The typist hit a key, which made the lever raise, pushing the bar of the character against the
ink ribbon and on the paper. The ink ribbon got the ink from a ball called the font ball. The font ball

The Weaknesses of the Parti Quebecois' Bill 60
Secularism Long before the October Crisis in the 1970's, the Parti Quebecois has been trying to
separate from Canada. The Parti Quebecois has implemented their own charter called Bill 60 in
order amend the current Canada Charter of Rights and Freedoms which is entrenched in the
Constitution of Canada. If this proposed bill were to be passed, it will cause many problems
amongst the citizens of Quebec in terms of diversity as it will be banning some of the most
important guaranteed rights stated in the Constitution: Freedom of expression and freedom of
religion. Although there are positives to a secular state, there are also a few negatives if you were to
look closely. Citizens moved to places like Canada to practice their freedom, not to have them taken
away. Taking away these rights could start separatist groups and maybe even start wars within the
province of Quebec. The reason why this bill is being proposed it that they Parti Quebecois would
like to see more equality between men and women (cbc.ca). There really is no reason for this bill to
be passed as it shows how weak Quebec is mainly because they are afraid of losing their own
culture. The Quebec government has proposed a secular charter, which has sparked another debate
from local, provincial and federal politicians. If passed, public sector employees such as teachers,
police officers, doctors, and even politicians will be banned from wearing any religious symbol.

Why Did The Toris Adopt The Reform Act Of 1832
The Tories opposed the Reform Act of 1832 because they didn't want more people being able to
Vote and still wanted to be the dominant party in the House of Lords. The Tories introduced The
Reform Act of 1867 because they wanted the political power that would come with it and to show
that they could lead the country and be able to change and because throughout Britain people
wanted further parliamentary reform.

Quebec 's Five Demands A Reasonable Request?

POL S 225: Canadian Government

Are Quebec's Five Demands a reasonable request?
The relationship between the Canadian government and Quebec has been in constant turmoil for
years. This paper will discuss and critique Quebec's five demands made in 1986 by the Liberal
government and their current implications. Reasonable demands are ones in which a limited amount
of asymmetrical federalism grants provincial sovereignty. Currently all provinces have certain
guaranteed rights, however Quebec's rights provide more autonomy. Quebec, though home to the
largest population of French speaking Canadians, have asked too much of the Government of
Canada. This is evident Quebec's increased control over immigration, Supreme Court Justices
appointment, and their veto on future constitutional negotiations. Conversely, the demand of
recognizing Quebec as a distinct society is however reasonable and has been accommodated into
Canadian society, and the ability to restrict federal spending power keeps the federal power in
check. In this essay, I will discuss each demand, and argue whether or not it is reasonable. The
Royal Proclamation of 1763 was Canada's first attempt at creating a nation. Along with establishing
the constitutional framework for Aboriginal Treaty negotiations, it additionally defined the new
territory of the Province of Quebec. Residents of this province were forbidden from entering the

How important was the Second Reform Act (1867) in Disraeli's emergence as Conservatives leader?
This question focuses on the importance of the Second Reform Act in Disraeli's rise to the top of the
Conservative Party and his emergence as the leader. In order to decide on the relative importance of
the Send Reform Act, I will also consider other factors, which impacted on Disraeli's emergence,
including the 1846 split of the Conservative party and the death of George Bentinck, Derby's
ineffective leadership, Palmerston's death in 1865 and Disraeli's determination and political skill.
The split of the Conservative in 1846 due to the repeal of the Corn Laws and the following death of

He managed to make this Bill seem radical enough to satisfy the Radicals and other pressure groups,
while allowing some amendments, which appeased the Liberals. This was crucial o passing the bill
since the Conservatives were in a minority. Whilst boosting Disraeli's reputation and showcasing his
political skill, the Second Reform Act also brought Disraeli popularity among his own MP's. This
links to Derby's leadership, because it was after this Act that Derby recommended Disraeli to Queen
Victoria as his successor. Therefore, it was Disraeli's determination and political skill that passed an
act which led to his leadership of the Conservative Party. There is no doubt that Disraeli possessed a
huge amount of political skill and having assessed all of the factors, I think that this was the most
important factor in explaining his emergence as Conservative leader. Despite his disastrous maiden
speech, Disraeli was a fantastic orator, and this skill was paramount in attacking Peel over the repeal
of the Corn Laws and in cementing his leadership. His determination was proven when he showed
his competence and sound grasp of financial matters in his Budgets of 1858 and 1866, overcoming
his heavy defeat with his 1952 Budget. Disraeli showed his political skill and insight in recognizing
the need for the Party to adopt a more progressive and pro–Reform approach, and he worked hard to

The Reform Act Of 1867
Considerable progress was made in the European states toward liberal practices as constitutions and
parliaments, but the concept of mass reality became a reality. In the western European states,
parliamentary government was permanently rooted in these areas. As Britain and France
experienced the expansion for the right to vote, in Italy and Spain liberal reforms provided to be the
means of success. Reform in Great Britain took part because of their two functioning two–party
parliamentary system and the growth of political democracy. The right to vote was brought to light
by the Reform Act of 1867, however William Gladstone further extended this right with the Reform
Act of 1884. This reform act allowed males who paid regular taxes and rent, by enfranchising
agricultural workers. Even though women were still denied the right to vote, the passage of the
Redistribution Act eliminated historic boroughs and countries and established constituencies that
contained one member for the House of Commons and have equal population proportions. As the
reform's became Great Britain's way of life, this was not the case for Ireland, in which gradual
reform failed to solve their problems.
Not quite like the political trends noticed in Great Britain, France had formed an independent

A Brief Note On The Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms
Proper housing is crucial to a human being's wellbeing, both mentally and physically. It is
fundamental in ensuring good mental health, physical health, and it sets the basis for social inclusion
in society. Housing is necessary for human beings to be able to survive and be able to protect
themselves from the elements. It is recognized as a basic human need alongside food and water;
thus, it is surprising that an estimated minimum of 235,000 people in a developed country like
Canada remain homeless and an estimated one in five people cannot afford housing (Heffernan,
Tracy; Faraday, Fay; and Rosenthal, Peter, 2015). Statistics such as these beg the question of
whether or not the right to housing or the right to affordable housing is recognized in Canada. The
answer to this question is quite complicated as there is no clear right in the Canadian Charter of
Rights and Freedoms that recognizes a specific right to housing or shelter, however, under section 7
and section 15 of the charter which state that "Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of
the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of
fundamental justice" and "Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the

 prohibited the sale of alcohol

As with all of the Acts discussed so far, these points were subject to confirmation by the

assimilate into a "civilized" world. It was the goal of the government that this Act would speed up
assimilation by eliminating tribal systems. These Acts were designed to break down tribal forms of

July 11th 1990, marked the beginning date of the Oka Crisis in Quebec Canada. It lasted until

triggered by something as simple as a golf course extension and as complicated as native burial

is just one of many conflicts between the Aboriginals and the Canadian government. A major issue
that has been of much debate in the 20th century has been Native sovereignty. The demand sounds

Townshend describes how Aboriginals view the Canadian government as a foreign government.
Furthermore, Townshend disputes the process of assimilation, integrating Aboriginals to the modern
Canadian society. The solution is to create a third tier government that would work in cohesion with
the Federal and Provincial levels. Different levels of government and the "...sharing of jurisdictional
powers between government institutions is already part of the essence of the Canadian state,"
(Townshend 39). If Canada is able to increase globalization and trade agreements on an international
level, than Canada should not be so unwilling to share jurisdiction with an Aboriginal government.
Thomas Flanagan disapproves the idea of Native sovereignty ever coexisting with Canadian
sovereignty. Flanagan identifies the flaws in Townshend's arguments referring to them as a
theoretical approach and not a practical approach. It is true that the sharing of jurisdictional power is
the essence of the Canadian state but this cannot apply to the Aboriginals of Canada. One reason a
third level of government cannot work in Canada is "In the 10 provinces, Canada has over six
hundred Indian bands living on more than 2200 reserves, plus hundreds of thousands of Métis and

Tenure Of Office Act Pros And Cons

allow the President to suspend an official, and if the Senate refused to agree in the removal, the
official would have been returned in their position. "President Andrew Johnson decided to replace
Edwin Stanton, which was appointed by President Lincoln, with a new secretary of war. Mr. Stanton
had become progressively more at odds with President Andrew Johnson and his cabinet, and had
been conspiring with Radical Republicans in Congress." (THE TENURE OF OFFICE ACT OF

The Indian Act Was Enacted In 1867 By Parliament Of Canada
The Indian Act was enacted in 1867 by the Parliament of Canada. The Department of Aboriginal
Affairs and Northern Development administered the act. The act defines who an "Indian" is and the
legal rights of the Aboriginal people in Canada. Regulation of the economic system between
aboriginal people and the government of Canada is included in the Indian Act. It also includes the
power the ministers have on the aboriginal people including children and disabled Aboriginals. If
the laws are not obeyed, the punishment is written in the act. The Indian Act was influenced by the
legislative foundation of the Royal Proclamation, 1763, which recognized Aboriginals as a distinct
political unit (Residential schools). The Royal Proclamation, 1763, thought that it was their duty to
protect the Aboriginal people from the Canadian society. The Royal Proclamation, 1763, had the
responsibility for Aboriginal affairs in Canada with British imperial authorities. However, by the
mid–1800s Britain began to transfer this responsibility to Canadian colonies. Then the Canadian
authorities passed the First Indian Act. Over the years many amendments have been made to the

When people today consider the lives of the slaves of the nineteenth century it is likely that their
thoughts would be focused on stereotypical southern plantation slaves. This picture is not all
encompassing, however. Slave experiences differed across the south as well as between the north

Isabella Baumfree as a slave in upper New York. Truth was sold between a variety of masters,
separated from her husband, and eventually escapes slavery in 1826 shortly before New York
emancipated all of its slaves. After spending several years of taking care of her family, Truth began
to speak as an advocate for abolition and women's rights at conferences and events. Her speech
When Woman Gets Her Rights Man Will Be Right was delivered at the annual meeting of the
American Equal Rights Association in New York in 1867. By this time, even the slaves of the south
have been effectively emancipated and the formerly enslaved have begun to search for equal rights
beyond their basic freedom. Her audience is presumably thirsting for further progress so her speech
serves to address her hopes for what is to come and for whom. She tells those in attendance of how

The British North America Act Of 1867
The British North America Act of 1867 and the subsequent Indian Act of 1876 gave the Canadian
government, under prime minster John A. Macdonald, full control over the nation's Aboriginal
people. The government used this power to establish boarding schools for Aboriginal children. An
estimated 144 residential schools operated at different times between the late 1800s and 1996
throughout Canada. These schools were established with the purpose to enhance assimilation of
Aboriginal children into the Canadian culture of British and French heritage. However, despite these
misguided government attempts lasting more than a century, the Aboriginal culture and civilization
could not be eradicated, and the residential school system as originally conceived proved to be a
failure.
Residential schools were religious custodial schools established after 1880 by the Canadian
government in partnership with churches. Through next half–century, a system of residential schools
stretching across country developed. The Roman Catholic church ran 3/5 of residential schools, the
Anglican church ¼, and the United and Presbyterian churches controlled the rest. Under the BNA

Marsden's Analysis
Women now grow up in a community where their choices can be made by themselves. Women no
longer have to seek their father's or husband input. Still to this day we are treated in certain
circumstances as inferior to the male population (Marsden, 2012). Beside this women have come so
far because they no longer have no control over their choices, their choices are in their own hand
and they are able to do what they wish (Marsden, 2012). For example in class we have talked about
the electoral system (Heritz, 2016b). For the longest time only British born men 21 and over were
eligible to vote (Heritz, 2016b). Women fought peacefully to get their right to vote so that they could

U.s. Congressional Reconstruction Era
The Reconstruction Era In 1865, the city was devastated because of the crisis that left the civil war.
Therefore, political, economic and social issues needed to be resolved to improve and reconstruct
the Nation. It was the period in which the State and local governments in the South were restored,
and the Southern states were unified to the rest of the States. This essay emphasizes the differences
between congressional and presidential reconstruction. Also, it highlights the achievements and
success of both. Although the presidential and congressional Reconstruction has some similarities,
they also disagreed on many points and created a conflict between each other. Nevertheless by early
1867, the new Congress passed the Reconstruction Act of 1867 over President Johnson's veto. The
Congressional Reconstruction Plan dramatically changed politics in the South. The reconstruction
was a process of reformation that affected the whole nation. There were three main Reconstruction
plans. Two were presidential "The Lincoln and Johnson's Plan. Meanwhile, one was Congressional.
Lincoln started a Reconstruction plan during the Civil War. To summarize, he implemented before
his death, the Emancipation Proclamation, the 10% Plan and he tried to extend suffrage. But his Plan

Explain How Far Was Lord Dishili The Architect Of The 1867...
How far was Disraeli the Architect of the second reform act of 1867? It can be argued that Disraeli
was the architect of reform during the late 1860's and through 1867 reform act, mainly due to the
fact that he realised that the conservative party might be seen as non–reforming. To counter this he
would expand the franchise and gain potential new voters. However there is also significant
evidence that Lord Derby was the main architect of reform, mostly due to the fact that he had been
part of the 1832 reform bill and when he returned to power in 1866 he took the lead in presenting
the conservative reform bill. One reason, which shows that Disraeli was the Architect of the Second
Reform Bill 1867, is that Disraeli wanted to consolidate his ... Show more content on

Source 7 is from a letter written by Lord Derby to Disraeli saying that the conservatives have to
'deal with the question of reform'. It also says that Derby is not 'in favour of resisting reform... there
is a genuine demand', this shows that Derby was supporting reform as he saw the national push and
demand for reform which he believed could strengthen the Tory party. The letter came after pressure
for reform increased after attempts by liberals to deal with the issue in 1866, however Disraeli was
reluctant to deal with it. Due to Disraeli being reluctant to deal with the pressure for reform, it shows
that he was not as supportive of reform as Derby, thus it could be said that Derby was the main
architect of reform. Source 8 also supports the idea that Derby was the main architect of reform. It
explains that when Derby and Disraeli returned to power in 1866, 'it was Derby who took the lead in
proposing a conservative reform bill'. Derby had previously helped to draft the 1832 reform bill 34
years earlier and he steered the 1867 measure through the Lords and held the conservative party in
unity with his one aim to place the Tory party permanently in power. He was to do this by expanding

The Confederation Act of 1867 Essay
The Confederation act of 1867 without question has had a major influence on the status of
contemporary Canada. It has helped shape Canada into one of the worlds most politically and
economically powerful countries; a country that is strong, independent, and united. There was a
series of events which led to the confederation of Canada, some which are more significant than
others. However, I believe that despite the significance of events such as the British encouragement
of uniting its North American colonies, the central and key reason for confederation was the fear of
potential American (Yankee) inhabitance (whether by persuasion or invasion) of the divided and
vast British North American colonies, and the way that the "Fathers of ... Show more content on

John A. Macdonald, the prime minister of Canada at the time, had seen first hand the effect of
divided colonies and the devastating impact that it could have on a nation. However, there was a
serious and impending threat against the colonies of Canada from the northern United States, not
only because of the British support of the southern states during the war, but also because of three
specific events: The St. Albans Raid, the Trent Crisis, and the Alabama Affair. The St. Albans raid
involved a group of confederate agents who robbed over two hundred thousand dollars (a significant
amount of money in the 1800's) from three banks in St. Albans, Vermont. These raiders fled to
Canada, and although they were caught and the money was returned, they were not persecuted
because they could not be trialed in Canada when the crime had been committed in the United
States. President Lincoln prevented the northerners from pursuing the raiders into Canada to murder
them, as this could have potentially resulted in a war, which would in turn benefit the southern
states. The Trent affair once again raised tensions, when two Confederate diplomats were arrested in
Boston while transferring a mail packet Trent to England. This greatly angered London, as they sent

Assess the significance of popular pressure in bringing about improved representation and greater
democracy in Britain in the period 1830–1931 The period of 1830–1931 saw gradual yet largely
significant governmental reforms which led to an extension of the franchise from 500,000 to around
21 million. Prior to 1832, Britain's franchise composed of a selective elite of the landowning class,
however the 1832 reform act, although a disappointment in the extent of what it achieved, paved the
way for further reform as it brought people together in rebellion (the Bristol Riots). This proved that

Whether a revolution was possible is questionable amongst historians, however as Eric Evans wrote,
'What mattered was that enough MPs and Peers believed that it was, and acted accordingly.'2 It
could also be said that unwittingly the government had evoked an atmosphere of popular pressure in
Britain as everyone had seen how easily they had surrendered to the rebels' demands. Despite the
bill's limitations, the rioters had after all successfully achieved the first piece of legislation which
was an incentive for future pressure from outside Parliament, hence quickening the process of
improving representation and democracy in Britain. The Hyde Park riots of 1866 were another
example of working–class radicalism in protest for reform. Similarly to the Bristol Riots, the rebels
were destructive by force and although there was said to be 'more mischief than malice', a policeman
was killed. Both the Bristol and Hyde Park riots were successful as they were each followed by a
reform the next year. I believe that the main reason for the Hyde Park riots' victory was the
unification of the National Reform Union and the Reform League, two distinctively divided (in
class) bodies. This demonstrated that people of different classes and backgrounds were able to unify
in common aims in ways which the political parties could not. Furthermore, this alliance could be

Women being able to vote was a huge step forward for Canadian women, but even though they

century women were not legally considered "persons" and could not be Senators (Women become

when one individual was referenced they used the word 'he". The constitution restricted women
from holding public office. (History Canadian resources book) The act declared that "women are
persons in matters of pain and penalties, but are not persons in matters of rights and privileges."
Therefore, women could be given the same penalties as men for breaking a law, but could not

Lincoln was elected President in 1860, vowing to keep slavery out of the territories, seven states
from the South seceded from the Union and established their own nation. Lincoln and most of the

Radical Reconstruction Pros And Cons
The four–year–long Civil War left the United States in a tattered state with 680,000 to 700,000
Americans dead– not including civilians (Anderson 6). This number is greater than the number of
American deaths of World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War combined
(Anderson 6). Furthermore, because the South had lost the Civil War to the North, it now had to
change its state governments and laws. The American government struggled to repair the nation
ineffectively through Presidential Reconstruction. Once the Presidential Reconstruction Era came to
an end, Radical Reconstruction began (history.com). The Reconstruction Era was a progressive
period after the Civil War that restored the United States by integrating African Americans into
society. While the Freedmen's Bureau helped ease African Americans into society, Radical
Reconstruction worked for racial equality for African Americans.

In fact, Senators must be at least 30 years of age and must own $4000 of property and reside in the
province which they represent (BNAAct, 1867, IV. 23). More importantly, Senators maintain their
position in the Senate as their "independence is protected by tenure until the age of 75 (Library of
Parliament, 2002, p. 12). In terms of the roles, the Senate serves as the "watchdog" in Parliament as
Senators participate in debates in the chamber, scrutinize government estimates and legislation as
well as investigating issues and policy matters in committees (Library of Parliament, 2002, p. 12).
Also, the 1867 British North America Act also outlines the limitation of the Senate in terms of
proposing bills and the process in which bills become law. Bills can be introduced in the Senate;
however, these bills cannot "raise or allocate public funds" (Library of Parliament, 2002, p. 12).

Liberal Party In Canada
The Liberal Party is the oldest and most dominant federal level political party in Canada. The party
was founded on July 1st, 1867 and has since provided Canada with 10 Prime Ministers. (Clarkson &
McCall, 12) The party originated during the mid–19th century when the English and French
colonies of Lower Canada (Quebec) and Upper Canada (Ontario) formed opposition groups. 'The
Grits' of Upper Canada lead by George Brown and the 'Parti Rouge' (Reds) of Lower Canada.
(Rayside, 2016) In the late 1850's these two groups briefly consolidated to form a government,
which ultimately failed and resulted in separation of the parties. This failure led the Parti Rouge to
consider a different political stance, thus coalesce of The Grits and the Parti Rouge to form the
Liberal Party of Canada in 1867.
In the early years after confederation the Conservatives dominated the Canadian political scene from
1867 until 1896, with the omission of 5 years, from 1873–1878. (Liberal.ca, 2005) The first Prime
Minister of Canada in 1867 was Sir John A. Macdonald leading the Conservative party. This party

He became the countries first Francophone Prime Minister in 1896 and maintained this position
until 1911. (Rayside, 2016) With Laurier's guidance the Liberal party began to advance their
political stance and unified over a centrist based platform. Laurier was also able to bridge the gap
between cultural and regional differences primarily over language–English and French. He was able
to win the election of 1896 with a platform focused on national unity and provincial rights. During
the 15 years that Laurier was Prime Minister there was unexpected growth and immigration
increased. Which lead to the formation of two new provinces in 1905 being Alberta and
Saskatchewan. (Library and Archives Canada, 2016) Thus leading to the obligatory expansion of the

Christopher Sholes Research Paper

  • 1. Christopher Sholes Research Paper The 1867 Typewriter was an amazing invention. It allowed people in the 1800's to print papers and articles quickly. This invention led to the computer and cash register. The first working typewriter was invented by Christopher Latham Sholes in 1867. Sholes was born on February 14, 1819. Sholes lived with his mom, dad and younger brother Charles. He went to school to become an apprentice to a printer. Sholes then completed his apprenticeship and became a newspaper editor in 1849. After working a year for the newspaper company, Sholes left. He then served in the Wisconsin State Legislature as a Democrat. Sholes then became a Republican shortly after being hired. In 1867 Sholes left the Legislature. He had an idea. He came up with the plans for the first practical typewriter. Then in 1868 he ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... For 3 years Sholes could not sell his typewriter to anyone. Then in 1873, Sholes licensed the patent to Remington and Sons. Sholes and Remington and Sons signed a contract to mass produce the first useful typewriter, the Remington Model 1. People started to buy typewriters because of the famous brand of Remington and Sons. Later in Sholes's life, he sold most of his interest in the typewriter. On February 17, 1890, Sholes died after battling a nine year fight with tuberculosis. Today, Sholes is remembered as "The Father of the Typewriter." (Daniels) The 1867 Typewriter was an amazing invention that allowed people to print documents and newspapers easily. This invention was innovative to the people of that time period. The 1867 Typewriter was a very complex machine to use. It worked like a normal typewriter but it was very bulky in size. It had an alphabetical character layout. The typist hit a key, which made the lever raise, pushing the bar of the character against the ink ribbon and on the paper. The ink ribbon got the ink from a ball called the font ball.

  • 3. The Weaknesses of the Parti Quebecois' Bill 60 Secularism Long before the October Crisis in the 1970's, the Parti Quebecois has been trying to separate from Canada. The Parti Quebecois has implemented their own charter called Bill 60 in order amend the current Canada Charter of Rights and Freedoms which is entrenched in the Constitution of Canada. If this proposed bill were to be passed, it will cause many problems amongst the citizens of Quebec in terms of diversity as it will be banning some of the most important guaranteed rights stated in the Constitution: Freedom of expression and freedom of religion. Although there are positives to a secular state, there are also a few negatives if you were to look closely. Citizens moved to places like Canada to practice their freedom, not to have them taken away. Taking away these rights could start separatist groups and maybe even start wars within the province of Quebec. The reason why this bill is being proposed it that they Parti Quebecois would like to see more equality between men and women (cbc.ca). There really is no reason for this bill to be passed as it shows how weak Quebec is mainly because they are afraid of losing their own culture. The Quebec government has proposed a secular charter, which has sparked another debate from local, provincial and federal politicians. If passed, public sector employees such as teachers, police officers, doctors, and even politicians will be banned from wearing any religious symbol.

Why Did The Toris Adopt The Reform Act Of 1832 The Tories opposed the Reform Act of 1832 because they didn't want more people being able to Vote and still wanted to be the dominant party in the House of Lords. The Tories introduced The Reform Act of 1867 because they wanted the political power that would come with it and to show that they could lead the country and be able to change and because throughout Britain people wanted further parliamentary reform. The Tories were the dominant force in the house of Commons between 1770 and 1830. In 1831 Earl Grey, the Whigs leader became Prime Minister The reasons for the Reform Act of 1832 included, until 1832 the right to vote was limited to a small group of people.

Wellington tried but members of the Tories didn't want to create a government that had different views than most people in Britain so William aske Grey to come back and he agreed to add more Whigs to the House of Lords. The House of Lords passed in Reform Act. The Tories rejected the Reform Act of 1832 because since they were conservatives they didn't want change and wanted to keep things the same. The Reform Act of 1867 was the second time the electoral process would tried to be changed. During the early 1960s Lord John Russell wanted there to be another electoral reform. Russell's attempts were stopped by the Prime Minister, Lord Palmerston who was against change of any sort. Palmerston died in 1865 and Russell came into power, Russell only wanted to give the vote to respectable but wanted to exclude unskilled workers and the poor.

  • 7. Quebec 's Five Demands A Reasonable Request? Akanksha Bhatnagar Dr. Mark Blythe POL S 225: Canadian Government Due: 7 March 2016 Are Quebec's Five Demands a reasonable request? The relationship between the Canadian government and Quebec has been in constant turmoil for years. This paper will discuss and critique Quebec's five demands made in 1986 by the Liberal government and their current implications. Reasonable demands are ones in which a limited amount of asymmetrical federalism grants provincial sovereignty. Currently all provinces have certain guaranteed rights, however Quebec's rights provide more autonomy. Quebec, though home to the largest population of French speaking Canadians, have asked too much of the Government of Canada. This is evident Quebec's increased control over immigration, Supreme Court Justices appointment, and their veto on future constitutional negotiations. Conversely, the demand of recognizing Quebec as a distinct society is however reasonable and has been accommodated into Canadian society, and the ability to restrict federal spending power keeps the federal power in check. In this essay, I will discuss each demand, and argue whether or not it is reasonable. The Royal Proclamation of 1763 was Canada's first attempt at creating a nation. Along with establishing the constitutional framework for Aboriginal Treaty negotiations, it additionally defined the new territory of the Province of Quebec. Residents of this province were forbidden from entering the western territories (Indian ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

This question focuses on the importance of the Second Reform Act in Disraeli's rise to the top of the Conservative Party and his emergence as the leader. In order to decide on the relative importance of the Send Reform Act, I will also consider other factors, which impacted on Disraeli's emergence, including the 1846 split of the Conservative party and the death of George Bentinck, Derby's ineffective leadership, Palmerston's death in 1865 and Disraeli's determination and political skill. The split of the Conservative in 1846 due to the repeal of the Corn Laws and the following death of Bentinck were important factors in allowing Disraeli ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... He managed to make this Bill seem radical enough to satisfy the Radicals and other pressure groups, while allowing some amendments, which appeased the Liberals. This was crucial o passing the bill since the Conservatives were in a minority. Whilst boosting Disraeli's reputation and showcasing his political skill, the Second Reform Act also brought Disraeli popularity among his own MP's. This links to Derby's leadership, because it was after this Act that Derby recommended Disraeli to Queen Victoria as his successor. Therefore, it was Disraeli's determination and political skill that passed an act which led to his leadership of the Conservative Party. There is no doubt that Disraeli possessed a huge amount of political skill and having assessed all of the factors, I think that this was the most important factor in explaining his emergence as Conservative leader. Despite his disastrous maiden speech, Disraeli was a fantastic orator, and this skill was paramount in attacking Peel over the repeal of the Corn Laws and in cementing his leadership. His determination was proven when he showed his competence and sound grasp of financial matters in his Budgets of 1858 and 1866, overcoming his heavy defeat with his 1952 Budget. Disraeli showed his political skill and insight in recognizing the need for the Party to adopt a more progressive and pro–Reform approach, and he worked hard to convince the backbench members of his party to drop ...

  • 11. The Reform Act Of 1867 Considerable progress was made in the European states toward liberal practices as constitutions and parliaments, but the concept of mass reality became a reality. In the western European states, parliamentary government was permanently rooted in these areas. As Britain and France experienced the expansion for the right to vote, in Italy and Spain liberal reforms provided to be the means of success. Reform in Great Britain took part because of their two functioning two–party parliamentary system and the growth of political democracy. The right to vote was brought to light by the Reform Act of 1867, however William Gladstone further extended this right with the Reform Act of 1884. This reform act allowed males who paid regular taxes and rent, by enfranchising agricultural workers. Even though women were still denied the right to vote, the passage of the Redistribution Act eliminated historic boroughs and countries and established constituencies that contained one member for the House of Commons and have equal population proportions. As the reform's became Great Britain's way of life, this was not the case for Ireland, in which gradual reform failed to solve their problems. Not quite like the political trends noticed in Great Britain, France had formed an independent republic government in Paris, known as the Commune. Not only did the General Assembly crush the Commune, but also women's roles were changed. Instead of women looking out for wounded soldiers or caring for them, ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 13. A Brief Note On The Canadian Charter Of Rights And Freedoms Proper housing is crucial to a human being's wellbeing, both mentally and physically. It is fundamental in ensuring good mental health, physical health, and it sets the basis for social inclusion in society. Housing is necessary for human beings to be able to survive and be able to protect themselves from the elements. It is recognized as a basic human need alongside food and water; thus, it is surprising that an estimated minimum of 235,000 people in a developed country like Canada remain homeless and an estimated one in five people cannot afford housing (Heffernan, Tracy; Faraday, Fay; and Rosenthal, Peter, 2015). Statistics such as these beg the question of whether or not the right to housing or the right to affordable housing is recognized in Canada. The answer to this question is quite complicated as there is no clear right in the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms that recognizes a specific right to housing or shelter, however, under section 7 and section 15 of the charter which state that "Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of the person and the right not to be deprived thereof except in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice" and "Every individual is equal before and under the law and has the right to the equal protection and equal benefit of the law without discrimination and, in particular, without discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, sex, age or mental or physical disability(Canadian ...

As with all of the Acts discussed so far, these points were subject to confirmation by the government. This is another example of attempts to eradicate Indian people and their culture and to assimilate into a "civilized" world. It was the goal of the government that this Act would speed up assimilation by eliminating tribal systems. These Acts were designed to break down tribal forms of government on the grounds they were irresponsible. The purpose of the Indian Act, 1876 was to consolidate earlier Acts into one piece of legislation that provided a national framework. This was to assist in the assimilation and civilization of Indians across Canada.

  • 17. Essay about Native Sovereignty July 11th 1990, marked the beginning date of the Oka Crisis in Quebec Canada. It lasted until September 26th 1990 resulting in one fatality of a local police officer. The violent clash was triggered by something as simple as a golf course extension and as complicated as native burial traditions. It had drawn world attention, catapulting native land rights into the mix. The Oka Crisis is just one of many conflicts between the Aboriginals and the Canadian government. A major issue that has been of much debate in the 20th century has been Native sovereignty. The demand sounds simple, allow Aboriginals of Canada to govern themselves; however, coexisting with the Canadian government makes this idea extremely complicated. Roger Townshend states ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Townshend describes how Aboriginals view the Canadian government as a foreign government. Furthermore, Townshend disputes the process of assimilation, integrating Aboriginals to the modern Canadian society. The solution is to create a third tier government that would work in cohesion with the Federal and Provincial levels. Different levels of government and the "...sharing of jurisdictional powers between government institutions is already part of the essence of the Canadian state," (Townshend 39). If Canada is able to increase globalization and trade agreements on an international level, than Canada should not be so unwilling to share jurisdiction with an Aboriginal government. Thomas Flanagan disapproves the idea of Native sovereignty ever coexisting with Canadian sovereignty. Flanagan identifies the flaws in Townshend's arguments referring to them as a theoretical approach and not a practical approach. It is true that the sharing of jurisdictional power is the essence of the Canadian state but this cannot apply to the Aboriginals of Canada. One reason a third level of government cannot work in Canada is "In the 10 provinces, Canada has over six hundred Indian bands living on more than 2200 reserves, plus hundreds of thousands of Métis and non–status Indians who do not possess reserves," (Flanagan 44).

These activities often overlap and should reinforce one another, to be effective. The term "human rights" was mentioned seven times in the UN's founding Charter, making the promotion and protection of human rights a key purpose and guiding principle of the Organization.

It guaranteed that all federal officials whose position required Senate approval could not be removed with the consent of the Senate. The Act did allow the President to suspend an official, and if the Senate refused to agree in the removal, the official would have been returned in their position. "President Andrew Johnson decided to replace Edwin Stanton, which was appointed by President Lincoln, with a new secretary of war. Mr. Stanton had become progressively more at odds with President Andrew Johnson and his cabinet, and had been conspiring with Radical Republicans in Congress." (THE TENURE OF OFFICE ACT OF 1867) "Congress met in 1868 and refused to agree in the removal of Edwin Stanton by vote. However, President Andrew Johnson refused to accept the Senate's decision. He believed The Tenure of Office Act was unconstitutional. Hopeful in gaining judicial review of the Act's constitutionality, President Johnson appointed General Lorenzo Thomas, General of the Army, to the post of secretary of war.

  • 23. The Indian Act Was Enacted In 1867 By Parliament Of Canada The Indian Act was enacted in 1867 by the Parliament of Canada. The Department of Aboriginal Affairs and Northern Development administered the act. The act defines who an "Indian" is and the legal rights of the Aboriginal people in Canada. Regulation of the economic system between aboriginal people and the government of Canada is included in the Indian Act. It also includes the power the ministers have on the aboriginal people including children and disabled Aboriginals. If the laws are not obeyed, the punishment is written in the act. The Indian Act was influenced by the legislative foundation of the Royal Proclamation, 1763, which recognized Aboriginals as a distinct political unit (Residential schools). The Royal Proclamation, 1763, thought that it was their duty to protect the Aboriginal people from the Canadian society. The Royal Proclamation, 1763, had the responsibility for Aboriginal affairs in Canada with British imperial authorities. However, by the mid–1800s Britain began to transfer this responsibility to Canadian colonies. Then the Canadian authorities passed the First Indian Act. Over the years many amendments have been made to the Indian Act.The Indian act passed out a law that any children under the ages of 16 had to study at Residential schools (Residential schools), the children there were physically abused, especially girls.

  • 25. What Is Radical Reconstruction Radical Radical Reconstruction was seen as radical. This was because of how big of an extent people apart of Radical Reconstruction were trying to transform the South. Congress passed the Reconstruction Acts of 1867–68, the Second Reconstruction Act, and these acts were seen as controlling since the North almost had utter control of policy–making within Congress. However, Radical Reconstruction was also seen as not radical. This was due to people apart of Radical Reconstruction as seen to be trying to institute order in the South. People started to view Radical Reconstruction this way after the Memphis and New Orleans Riots of 1866.

Citizens embrace different cultures, religions and ethnicities as their own. When a civic nation is born there are always going to be discrepancies; not everyone is united under one idea. Therefore, loyalties begin to contend with each other which has resulted in the Canada we live in today. Separatists are amongst the majority. Quebec, The Maritimes, Cascadia, The West, all want to be independent from the government run within Ontario. As citizens we must ask ourselves, if the confederation in 1867 was offered to us today, would we accept? Identity is a complex topic for Canadians. How can we define ourselves as a nation if individually we are all different? The country of Canada became united under one flag and one anthem in 1867.

The Slavery Of The Nineteenth Century Essay When people today consider the lives of the slaves of the nineteenth century it is likely that their thoughts would be focused on stereotypical southern plantation slaves. This picture is not all encompassing, however. Slave experiences differed across the south as well as between the north and south and produced a variety of different experiences. Sojourner Truth was born with the name Isabella Baumfree as a slave in upper New York. Truth was sold between a variety of masters, separated from her husband, and eventually escapes slavery in 1826 shortly before New York emancipated all of its slaves. After spending several years of taking care of her family, Truth began to speak as an advocate for abolition and women's rights at conferences and events. Her speech When Woman Gets Her Rights Man Will Be Right was delivered at the annual meeting of the American Equal Rights Association in New York in 1867. By this time, even the slaves of the south have been effectively emancipated and the formerly enslaved have begun to search for equal rights beyond their basic freedom. Her audience is presumably thirsting for further progress so her speech serves to address her hopes for what is to come and for whom. She tells those in attendance of how she is not done battling for equal rights in the wake of emancipation. The issues she highlights are wage inequality and universal suffrage, which she puts into the broader context of the ultimate advantages of giving women the rights that they ...

Under the BNA Act those expansive matters fittingly treated nationally, like defence and post office, were under the federal government, while controls over property, local issues, districts, and most private law matters went to the provinces. The setting of the constitution was a hierarchy system from the colonial office to provincial legislatures .

An estimated 144 residential schools operated at different times between the late 1800s and 1996 throughout Canada. These schools were established with the purpose to enhance assimilation of Aboriginal children into the Canadian culture of British and French heritage. However, despite these misguided government attempts lasting more than a century, the Aboriginal culture and civilization could not be eradicated, and the residential school system as originally conceived proved to be a failure. Residential schools were religious custodial schools established after 1880 by the Canadian government in partnership with churches. Through next half–century, a system of residential schools stretching across country developed. The Roman Catholic church ran 3/5 of residential schools, the Anglican church ¼, and the United and Presbyterian churches controlled the rest. Under the BNA Act and Indian Acts, the government was responsible for providing Aboriginals with an education as well as integrating them into Canadian society.

To counter this he would expand the franchise and gain potential new voters.

The letter came after pressure for reform increased after attempts by liberals to deal with the issue in 1866, however Disraeli was reluctant to deal with it. Due to Disraeli being reluctant to deal with the pressure for reform, it shows that he was not as supportive of reform as Derby, thus it could be said that Derby was the main architect of reform.

There was a series of events which led to the confederation of Canada, some which are more significant than others.

Macdonald, the prime minister of Canada at the time, had seen first hand the effect of divided colonies and the devastating impact that it could have on a nation. However, there was a serious and impending threat against the colonies of Canada from the northern United States, not only because of the British support of the southern states during the war, but also because of three specific events: The St. Albans Raid, the Trent Crisis, and the Alabama Affair. The St. Albans raid involved a group of confederate agents who robbed over two hundred thousand dollars (a significant amount of money in the 1800's) from three banks in St. Albans, Vermont. These raiders fled to Canada, and although they were caught and the money was returned, they were not persecuted because they could not be trialed in Canada when the crime had been committed in the United States. President Lincoln prevented the northerners from pursuing the raiders into Canada to murder them, as this could have potentially resulted in a war, which would in turn benefit the southern states.

Prior to 1832, Britain's franchise composed of a selective elite of the landowning class, however the 1832 reform act, although a disappointment in the extent of what it achieved, paved the way for further reform as it brought people together in rebellion (the Bristol Riots).

Whether a revolution was possible is questionable amongst historians, however as Eric Evans wrote, 'What mattered was that enough MPs and Peers believed that it was, and acted accordingly.'2 It could also be said that unwittingly the government had evoked an atmosphere of popular pressure in Britain as everyone had seen how easily they had surrendered to the rebels' demands. Despite the bill's limitations, the rioters had after all successfully achieved the first piece of legislation which was an incentive for future pressure from outside Parliament, hence quickening the process of improving representation and democracy in Britain. The Hyde Park riots of 1866 were another example of working–class radicalism in protest for reform. Similarly to the Bristol Riots, the rebels were destructive by force and although there was said to be 'more mischief than malice', a policeman was killed. Both the Bristol and Hyde Park riots were successful as they were each followed by a reform the next year. I believe that the main reason for the Hyde Park riots' victory was the unification of the National Reform Union and the Reform League, two distinctively divided (in class) bodies.

This voice increased even more once the Military Reconstruction Acts of 1867 were passed which led to Southern states changing their old laws and ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

  • 67. Role Of Senate In Canada Senate of Canada: Role and Significance To begin with, the legislative branch of government in Canada is Parliament, which is bicameral and consists of the House of Commons and the Senate. The House of Commons is made up of 338 members of Parliament that represent different constituencies which vote in Canada's federal elections (Courtney, 2015). More importantly, the electoral system in which members of parliament are elected is called first past the post system and the candidate with the most votes wins the elections with plurality voting (Cross, 2010, p. 130). On the other hand, the second chamber of Canada's Parliament is the appointed Senate. The Senate is regarded as the chamber of "sober second thought" as the Senate reviews legislation ...

More importantly, Senators maintain their position in the Senate as their "independence is protected by tenure until the age of 75 (Library of Parliament, 2002, p. 12). In terms of the roles, the Senate serves as the "watchdog" in Parliament as Senators participate in debates in the chamber, scrutinize government estimates and legislation as well as investigating issues and policy matters in committees (Library of Parliament, 2002, p. 12). Also, the 1867 British North America Act also outlines the limitation of the Senate in terms of proposing bills and the process in which bills become law. Bills can be introduced in the Senate; however, these bills cannot "raise or allocate public funds" (Library of Parliament, 2002, p. 12). Finally, to become law, bills must pass through both the House of Commons and the Senate to receive royal assent and become law (BNAAct, 1867, IV. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

She was a great student and was always willing to learn but the education she desired was not available in Poland so when her sister, Bronya, went to Paris, Marie followed. Marie went to school in Paris to get a teaching diploma in mathematics and physics and then to return to Poland. She didn't live with her sister and new brother–in–law because she liked the freedom she had in an apartment of her own. After 3 years of living in Paris, she received a diploma in physics and mathematics. Pierre Curie was an internationally known physicist but not well known in the French scientific community. His only dream was to ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Her results were immediate. She noticed that the element thorium gave off the same rays as uranium. After a lot of research she came to the conclusion that radiation did not depend on the compound being studied. She said that it depended on the amount of uranium or thorium. She concluded that radiation did not depend on the arrangement of atoms in a compound in a molecule but rather the interior of the atom itself. The discovery was considered to be revolutionary at the time. She continued to test all elements on the Periodic Table of Elements. Only uranium and thorium gave off any sort of radiation. Her next experiment was quite simple. She wanted to test natural ores that contain uranium or thorium. She gathered samples from geological museums and found that pitchblende was four to five times active with small amounts of uranium. Pitchblende is a form of the mineral uraninite occurring in brown or black pitch like masses. Her brand new hypothesis was that a new element that was considerably more active than uranium was preset in small amounts of ore. Pierre gave up his research of crystals which he was heavily dedicated to join Marie in her scientific studies. They both found that strong reactions came from test samples containing bismuth or barium. Following up on bismuth, Marie discovered that every time she took away an amount of bismuth, a residue with greater activity was left behind. By 1898, the substance was 300 times the strength of ...

  • 78. Liberal Party In Canada The Liberal Party is the oldest and most dominant federal level political party in Canada. The party was founded on July 1st, 1867 and has since provided Canada with 10 Prime Ministers. (Clarkson & McCall, 12) The party originated during the mid–19th century when the English and French colonies of Lower Canada (Quebec) and Upper Canada (Ontario) formed opposition groups. 'The Grits' of Upper Canada lead by George Brown and the 'Parti Rouge' (Reds) of Lower Canada. (Rayside, 2016) In the late 1850's these two groups briefly consolidated to form a government, which ultimately failed and resulted in separation of the parties. This failure led the Parti Rouge to consider a different political stance, thus coalesce of The Grits and the Parti Rouge to form the Liberal Party of Canada in 1867. In the early years after confederation the Conservatives dominated the Canadian political scene from 1867 until 1896, with the omission of 5 years, from 1873–1878. (Liberal.ca, 2005) The first Prime Minister of Canada in 1867 was Sir John A. Macdonald leading the Conservative party. This party was strong and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... He became the countries first Francophone Prime Minister in 1896 and maintained this position until 1911. (Rayside, 2016) With Laurier's guidance the Liberal party began to advance their political stance and unified over a centrist based platform. Laurier was also able to bridge the gap between cultural and regional differences primarily over language–English and French. He was able to win the election of 1896 with a platform focused on national unity and provincial rights. During the 15 years that Laurier was Prime Minister there was unexpected growth and immigration increased. Which lead to the formation of two new provinces in 1905 being Alberta and Saskatchewan.
