The Lebanese in Prince Edward Island make up less than one percent of the population. Within the Canadian context that makes them a small fraction of a small fraction. But a group is not interesting or significant simply because of its numbers. By looking carefully at the small number of Lebanese who have come to the Island, we are able to learn some important things about them, about ourselves, and also about the universal themes of emigration and acculturation. ...

WHELAN.Trinity Term. ) 1856. SChallenge to array -- Court will set aside special Jury panel for misconduct of officer returning it -- certainty and conclusive- ness of allegations necessary in affidavits to support application.This was an application to the Court to quasi) the special Jury panel for alleged partiality in the under Sheriff by whom it was returned. The grounds urged, as manifesting partiality, are contained in a lengthy affidavit made by the plaintiff; but before noticing them it will be convenient to dispose of an objection taken by defendant's Counsel, viz., that no Challenge can be made to the array in Special Jury cases. It is laid down in Archboltft Practice, 424, that " it seems very -doubtful if the array in Special Jury cases can be challenged." But it is not to be understood from this that there are no means of raising an objection to a Special Jury panel for indifferency, or misconduct in the officer who returns it. On the contrary, in examining the authorities it will be found that the reason why what is technically termed a challenge is net permitted in such cases, is not that such an objection cannot he taken at all, (if such were the case the strange anomaly might be presented of a Court compelled to proceed with a trial, where gross partiality and misconduct in the officer returning the Jury was not denied, and where, perhaps, every member of the Jury had, confessedly, been nominated by on... ...

Product Description
For two weeks in June 1983, thousands gathered in 20 communities throughout the region to greet the Prince and Princess of Wales and, together, to celebrate pride in their communities.

Here is the formality of the state dinner, the spur-of-the-moment friendliness of an impromptu walkabout. Here are the region's largest cities and smallest villages, all decked out for royalty. Here are Maritimers and Newfoundlanders having good times together. Here are Charles and the beautiful young Princess.

The 1983 royal tour was an event that many still remember with fondness, nostalgia--and now, with sadness too. This illustrated souvenir portrays the Prince and Princess in the fresh bloom of their marriage. ... Read more

Product Description

The study of Canadian legal history has seen a remarkable growth in the past decade, nowhere more so than in Atlantic Canada. Given its early settlement and some of the liberties taken with legal procedure there - as well as some creative interpretations of English law - the region is ripe for close study in the legal history field. This new collection examines that history on 'two islands:' Newfoundland and Prince Edward Island.

The essays examine legal themes, developments, and disputes, and offer a framework for comparing ways of administering justice through the courts in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The cases examined are particularly interesting for the light they throw on legal process and, especially, on the motives of the parties. Unlike in contemporary England and Upper Canada, the English precedents gave way to local needs as equitable regimes emerged that put family and community interests first, and treated all members of the family in ways tailored to their personal needs and circumstances.

This volume, which includes a number of essays examining women's legal status and access to the courts, is a comprehensive and fascinating examination of legal history in two Canadian provinces.

Product Description
The Acadians French: Acadiens are the descendants of the original French settlers and often Métis, of parts of Acadia French: Acadie in the northeastern region of North America comprising what is now the Canadian Maritime Provinces of New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Prince Edward Island, Gaspé, in Quebec, and parts of the American state of Maine. In the Great Upheaval of 1755, Acadians were uprooted by the British; some of these resettled in Louisiana, where they became known as Cajuns. War between the French and the British in their colonies and in Europe is an important element in the history of the Acadians. No other factor shaped the cultural evolution of Acadians in such a dominant way. A second historical element to affect development of the Acadians is a sense of abandonment by France. The last century has been marked by struggles by the Acadian people for equal language and cultural rights as a minority group in the Maritime provinces of Canada. ... Read more
