		The tax on the circulation of the banks was abolished, and in lieu of those a deposit with the Government of provincial debentures was required, and according to a plan fixed by the legislature.
		For instance, the banks were required to furnish to the Department of Finance, yearly, a list of balances in respect of which no transactions had taken place during the five years prior to the date of such return, and of all dividends remaining unpaid for the same period.
		This fund was to be used, upon suspension of a bank, and between the time of suspension and redemption for the purpose of redeeming, if necessary, the notes of the bank, and it was held that the knowledge that such a fund existed would keep the notes at par.

	Micmac
		British settlement in North America had begun in Virginia at Jamestown in 1607, but as a result of Cabot's voyage in 1497, Britain claimed the entire eastern seaboard north of the Carolinas (including Canada).
		The British, however, were serious about enforcing their claims and in 1613 made their first attempt to remove the French from "their territory." In the fall, a naval expedition from Jamestown destroyed both the Mont-Deserts mission and Port Royal.
		The British refused to declare war reasoning that, since the Micmac were supposed to have submitted to British authority in Nova Scotia at the Treaty of Boston (1726), they could be treated as rebels, not enemies.

		In "The Rationale of Central Banking," Vera C. Smith (Committee for Monetary Research and Education, June, 1981) writes, "The primary definition of a central bank is a banking system in which a single bank has either a complete or residuary monopoly in the note issue.
		A central bank always imposes a tremendous burden on the nation for "rearmament" and "defense", in order to create inextinguishable debt, simultaneously creating a military dictatorship and enslaving the people to pay the "interest" on the debt which the bankers have artificially created.
