The Policy of Responsible Government
Responsible government was established in North America after notably little deliberation in Britain. Grey, who among British statesmen had given the greatest thought to the new policy, was soon uneasy about its consequences and became unwilling to extend it beyond North America. 2 He believed in the empire of settlement and the future of great British communities overseas, but he did not believe in the political fitness of the Cape Colony, or Ne…
Anomalous Societies: Newfoundland and New South Wales
Crown colony government developed in the conquered colonies because British ministers would not establish representative institutions that would work only tumultuously or fall into the hands of oppressive minorities. An elected assembly in Trinidad, for example, would not have functioned peacefully if it had represented all men of property and would have been an unpopular and possibly tyrannical body if it had represented only English or European…
The Canadas Troubles, 1831–41
The Howick Act of 1831 soon became the short test of British politicians’ views on the Canadas. Ought it be repealed, suspended, or followed by further concessions? Was it a late return to the policy followed by Pitt and Grenville in 1791, or a mere palliative to reduce colonial dissatisfaction? These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm impro…
The New Idea of Self-Governing Colonies of Settlement
‘A very different way of thinking’ about empire became prevalent as England was being industrialised, wrote Richard Pares in 1937. 3 For a long time, historians were too interested in the rejection of mercantilism in the 1840s to appreciate correctly what Pares called the ‘positive theory of empire’, the beginnings of which were coeval with the coming of free trade. Belief in active colonisation by settlement was a vital part of the ‘positive the…
Responsible Government in Britain
The Upper Canadian reformers who during the 1830s sought responsible government were seeking, as historians have since agreed, to gain the established conventions of the British constitution. Some of the reformers, most notably Robert Baldwin, were certainly asking for what they believed to be the British constitution, promised in 1791 and modified by changing conventions. They sought, in respect of all the internal affairs of the colony, a parli…
The Crown Colony System
The stormy history of self-government in the Canadas was contemporary with the development, elsewhere in the empire, of the illiberal system of Crown colony government. Unknown by that name before 1828, 3 it existed in many different forms in the conquered colonies of the West Indies, Ceylon, Mauritius and the Cape and in the settled colonies of New South Wales and Tasmania. Although its beginnings were in wartime arrangements for conquered colon…
The British Constitution for British Colonies: Canada, 1759–1831
While the Thirteen Colonies moved towards independence, Britain began to govern the vast territories acquired from France in North America in 1763. To begin with, the old representative system that had been customary in the Thirteen Colonies and the West Indies was chosen for Quebec (as the new possessions were called), but this was abandoned — first in favour of two illiberal forms of government (one unconstitutional), and then, in 1791, in favo…
Party Government in British North America
Henry George, third Earl Grey, Secretary of State for War and the Colonies in Lord John Russell’s first administration, wrote to Sir John Harvey, Lieutenant-Governor of Nova Scotia, on 3 November 1846, instructing him to allow responsible government in the colony. Shortly afterwards he authorised Lord Elgin, the new governor-general of Canada to allow responsible government there as well. In 1847 he sanctioned it in New Brunswick and in 1851, aft…
British and Colonial Constitutions: The American Experience
Tessier and the `Essex Circle
In a recent issue of this Quarterly, Gustav Ungerer called attention to several hitherto unnoticed documents concerning the English sojourn of the French lutenist and composer Charles Tessier and on the basis of this evidence concluded that the musician was for a time admitted to the ‘Essex Circle.’ The conclusion should rather be a conjecture, I believe.The documents published by Ungerer include three letters written by Tessier to Anthony Bacon,…
