The Canadian Historical Review at One Hundred Years
This article considers how the scholarly history published in the pages of the Canadian Historical Review has spoken to and been shaped by broad structural changes of two kinds: those that determine scholarly practices of knowledge-making, and those that determine the meaning of nationality. Beginning with a sketch of these themes in the journal’s first seventy-five years, the article then discusses specific examples of topics related to these th…
Give and Take
Can a book about tax history be a page-turner? You wouldn’t think so. But Give and Take is full of surprises. A Canadian millionaire who embraced the new federal income tax in 1917. A socialist hero, J.S. Woodsworth, who deplored the burden of big government. Most surprising of all, Give and Take reveals that taxes deliver something more than armies and schools. They build democracy. Tillotson launches her story with the 1917 war income tax, take…
Confederation
The Family as Tax Dodge
To pay for the Second World War, the federal government had to tax more Canadians more heavily. In 1942, the amount of tax-exempt personal income was reduced and the rates of taxation were increased. The public responded with perplexity and concern about how the newly taxable, often low-income Canadians were going to pay their taxes. In these protests, and over the course of the next thirty years, the treatment in tax law of individuals as member…

The Public at Play
This text focuses on a moment of failed political idealism, when leisure meant much more than fun. Between 1945 and 1961 the government funded the hiring of a cadre of recreation directors in the villages, towns, and cities of Ontario. Liberal thinkers saw this funding as a way to foster a democratic and participatory society; working with these directors, municipalities could start grass-roots community activities, in the process conditioning mi…
Ontario Since Confederation

When Our Membership Awakens
Rather than seeing the mainstream, anti-communist labour leadership in the post-war era as opponents of membership activism and as politically right wing, we might more accurately see them as ideologically-diverse architects of an activism designed to suit the institutional conditions of the new industrial legality in the Cold War era. Labour bureaucrats they indisputably were, but the new regime of industrial relations prompted them to re-examin…

We May All Soon Be 'First-Class Men
Urban telegraph offices in the early twentieth century employed both women and men as telegraph operators. The fact that both sexes worked together in this skilled occupation makes telegraphy an interesting case for the study of links between gender and skill. Through an examination of the labour process and the telegraph operators' craft culture, this paper describes how the connection between masculinity and skill was established. It is suggest…
