	Canada. The Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition. 2001-05
		Canada occupies all of North America N of the United States (and E of Alaska) except for Greenland and the French islands of St. Pierre and Miquelon.
		Canada is a federation of 10 provinces—Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia—and three territories—Nunavut, the Northwest Territories, and the Yukon Territory.
		During the Ice Age all of Canada was covered by a continental ice sheet that scoured and depressed the land surface, leaving a covering of glacial drift, depositional landforms, and innumerable lakes and rivers.

	Canada ~ Stephen's Web ~ by Stephen Downes

	History of Meteorological Services in Canada
		Storm warnings and general weather forecasts for Eastern Canada were instituted in 1876, and this service was extended across the West and throughout the settled portions of the country by the early years of the 20th century.
		In Eastern Canada during the summer of 1881 the Service began to issue forecasts at midnight so that these might be published in the morning newspapers and also be displayed at telegraph stations as soon as they were opened each morning.
		Lack of data in northern Canada, however, detracted from the advantages of the new system and drew attention to the urgent necessity of establishing more stations in the north, especially in the vast area west of Hudson Bay, if the new methods were to succeed.

	Canada - Currency
		In the early days of the French régime, beaver skins served as a currency in Canada, and in 1669 wheat was declared a legal tender, at four francs for three French bushels.
		In 1796 the Legislature of Upper Canada passed an Act for the better regulation of coins current in the province, and by this Act certain coins of various countries, including Portugal, America, Great Britain, Spain and France, were made legal tender at specified values.
		On the two Canadas being united in 1840, an Act was passed repealing all past legislation dealing with currency, and creating as the new basis a pound currency.

	Rebellion of 1837-39 in Canada (upper Canada)
		Kevin Harrington, president of ACV/CFA, informed me at NAVA 32 that it is a wide-spread mistake that the Upper Canada Reformist flag is all blue, coming from the fact that the flag kept in a museum is ripped and some people wrongly assumed that the lower half of the flag was all blue.
		In Upper Canada, at least, it was the Radicals and not the Reformers who were behind the violence in 1837, and they never amounted to more than about a thousand people within a population of about a half-million.
		The surviving flag is fragmentary, but is accompanied by a reconstruction, and according to the text alongside, which describes it as the flag of the short-lived 'Republic of Canada', the crescent moon represented the 'hunter's moon', symbol of the many semi-clandestine 'hunters clubs' in the area.

	Canada's Three Solitudes
		Canada’s problem is its perpetual identity crisis, a collective neurosis bred of being a confederation of English and French peoples—what the novelist Hugh MacLennan once called the country’s "Two Solitudes"—and the small neighbor to one of history’s few great nations.
		Canada has established common procedures with the United States for the screening of high-risk goods in third countries prior to their arrival at North American airports and seaports, and the Department of Transportation has plans to increase the use of biometric systems and radiological scanners at Canadian points of entry.
		Canada’s cities are also the primary destination for immigrants and refugees to the country.

	Sources of English Constitutional History: Chapter 133
		A plan by which it is proposed to insure the tranquil government of Lower Canada must include in itself the means of putting an end to the agitation of national disputes in the legislature, by settling at once and forever the national character of the province.
		It is believed that nothing in the legislation of Canada warrants the expressions of disapproval which are contained in the dispatch of his grace, but that on the contrary due regard has been had to the welfare and prosperity of her majesty's Canadian subjects.
		But the government of Canada acting for its legislature and people cannot, through those feelings of deference which they owe to the imperial authorities, in any manner waive or diminish the right of the people of Canada to decide for themselves both as to the mode and extent to which taxation shall be imposed.

		The terms were decidedly unfair to Lower Canada: it was expected to help pay Upper Canada's £1.2 million debt (it had very little), and held it to fifty percent of the seats in the new Assembly despite having a much larger population.
		In Canada, reformers Robert Baldwin and Louis LaFontaine formed a new council in March, 1848.
		Louis LaFontaine insisted on speaking in French in the Assembly of the Province of Canada, despite the fact that the official language was English alone.

	The National Interest
		Canada's problem is its perpetual identity crisis, a collective neurosis bred of being a confederation of English and French peoples--what the novelist Hugh MacLennan once called the country's "Two Solitudes"--and the small neighbor to one of history's few great nations.
		Whether Canada is a trusted ally of the United States--insofar as the latter has defined its global roles and responsibilities--is a more difficult question to answer.
		In truth, Canada is now a country of three solitudes--four, if Canada's ever more assertive native population is included--where each has increasingly little in common with the others.

	Canada in the Making - Constitutional History
		At this time, ethnic tensions in Lower Canada between the French Canadian majority and the British minority (which was increasing rapidly through immigration) pushed opinions among French Canadians to greater extremes.
		In Upper Canada, the situation was brought to a head when the governor, Sir Francis Bond Head, became actively involved in an election and helped the Tories (and by extension the Family Compact) to win.
		The report which he produced early the next year and which advocated the assimilation of French Canadians made him a figure who was hated in French Canada, but helped to establish responsible government and the shape of Canadian Confederation 28 years later.

	Charles Poulett Thomson, 1st Baron Sydenham Summary
		In 1839, offered a choice between becoming chancellor of the Exchequer or governor general of British North America, Poulett Thomson chose the second, happy by now to escape the heavy grind of Cabinet and parliamentary sessions.
		What is now central Canada was then racked by bitter disputes, not only between French-speaking and English-speaking Canadians but, in both Lower and Upper Canada, between oligarchical executives and more popular elements; abortive revolutions had occurred in 1837-1838.
		Sydenham succeeded Lord Durham as Governor of Canada in 1839.

	The Aroostook War
		General Winfield Scott was rushed to the area to broker a deal before things got out of hand between the Maine "Red Shirts" and the New Brunswick "Blue Noses." He suceeded in arranging for a compromise agreement to be made between Congressman Daniel Webster and Lord Ashburton.
		The border dispute became known as the "Bloodless Aroostook War" and legend has it that the only casualty was either 1) a pig that wandered across the border into Canada; or 2) a cow, shot by mistake, while rustling around outside the Ft. Kent blockhouse.
		Essentially, the Treaty served as a precedent for peaceful settlement of disputes between the United States and Canada -- a critical issue given the length of their shared border (today it is the longest demilitarized boundary on Earth - post 9/11 note: This is changing, sadly).
