Le projet multidisciplinaire « Tissés serrés » est un survol du cours d'histoire de troisième secondaire, en parcourant les événements, les personnages et les us et coutumes, de Jacques Cartier en 1534, à Lord Durham en 1839. Dans cette série de balados, la Société Histoire Canada s'est entretenue avec les finalistes francophones de 2024 du Prix d'histoire du Gouverneur général pour l'excellence en enseignement.

Plongez dans une conversation fascinante avec Étienne-Alexandre Beauregard, qui nous présente son ouvrage "Le Retour des Bleus". "Le Retour des Bleus" explore la pertinence continue du débat historique entre François-Xavier Garneau et Lord Durham, Étienne-Alexandre propose une vision renouvelée du nationalisme conservateur comme clé pour une modernité respectueuse de l'identité québécoise. Cet épisode est une invitation à redécouvrir l'histoire et l'identité québécoises sous un nouvel angle, où tradition et modernité se rencontrent. Un moment d'échange pour les passionnés par la politique, la culture et l'avenir du Québec.

On this episode, Melinda and Doug indulge their nerdiness without Jon, Don, or Pat to restrain them. The conversation ranges from the rebellions of 1837 to Windsor 2023.

In which we discuss the British investigation into the causes for the Rebellions... before they actually ended... and the controversial report by Lord Durham that resulted from it! NOTE: Patrick refers to the report as "unofficial". It was considered official by the British and, for all intents and purposes, is. Patrick used that term because of the odd circumstances surrounding its creation, but that might not be clear for listeners. Also, Mackenzy swears a lot in this one (yes, I'm throwing him under the bus). Durham just brings out the worst in people! -- Sources & Further Reading: Buckner, Phillip A.

How did we go from loyalist victory in the rebellions to loyalist anger in the Rebellion Losses Bill mob riot in 1849? When did winning look so much like losing?This week we start in 1849 but quick return to the years right after the rebellions. Lord Durham is back (but don't worry, as usual, he's not staying long); there's a new Governor General with a new nickname (welcome Le Poulet); Lower Canada and Upper Canada are forced to marry; Robert Baldwin is back in yet another executive (how long will he last this time?); and we have more elections in the Canadas which means, you guessed it, more election violence. 

Winter extends from 1837 to 1838 and the rebels in exile try to turn around their fortunes. William Lyon Mackenzie captures an island. Canadian loyalists sink a ship but they also kill an American. Radical Patriotes read a revolutionary declaration into the late February winter wind in Lower Canada and then are chased back across the border. We meet Lord Durham, the new Governor General, and he hatches a scheme to deal with rebel prisoners. And there are enough cross-border attacks to keep everyone on edge.

OK... Montreal turned 375 this year... and Canada turned 150... what's going on... why is Montreal so much older, and what was happening before Canada became Canada? These are the few questions that started me down a road that I think will last for many sporadic episodes in the future. I'm so curious now as to how Canada began... what was going on for all those years after Montreal was a city and before Canada was a country. When did the provinces start, what was the order they joined Canada in, what were the years... among so many other questions that come up once I start learning that there really are no simple answers or explanations. To kick it all off I sit down with my buddy Nathan Walsh – a young and eloquent Canadian History buff – who tries to get me on track with some (we have lots more to cover) of the basics of what was going on leading up to Confederation and the culmination of the 'Dominion of Canada'. The main focus I suppose is "Colonial Canada" but some of the things we touch on include: - The early French and English Presence (and even the Dutch) - Upper and Lower Canada, what they are and where they were - How "Profit" had an impact on Colonizing - The Hudson's Bay Company - The Battle of the Plains of Abraham - The English and French and their alignments with the Indigenous people of the area - The Rebellion of 1837 - Lord Durham and his "Report" - The Railway - And how Nathan really likes and gets excited about the "Battles" (you'll have to listen through to get the feeling;) ) All in all, It's a lot more complicated and way more interesting than I ever knew or imagined. I will definitely be grabbing a couple more beers and sitting down with Nathan to drill him with more ignorant questions. Thanks for listening & Until next time...

Lord Durham was a 'larger than life' character of the early 19th century who wholeheartedly supported the passing of the 1832 Great Reform Act in Britain. Six years later in 1838, he was sent to Upper and Lower Canada to find a solution to the political turmoil that had resulted in two separate rebellions against British rule. While Lord Durham's tenure was just 6 months in duration, he compiled a report in 1839 known as the 'Report on the Affairs of British North America', which advocated the extension of 'responsible self-government' to the Canada's. Did Lord Durham really 'save' the white settler Empire for the Crown with the contents of his Report? In this episode, Patrick O'Shaughnessy (@historychappy) explains the rationale behind his critique of Lord Durham's role in the forthcoming book 'Versus Empire', as well as the disciplinary and research processes behind his work, while Elliott L. Watson (@thelibrarian6) poses the questions.

Versus History welcome you to the very first Podcast Episode from Senior School History Teachers Elliott L. Watson and Patrick O'Shaughnessy. In this introductory episode, the pair discuss the launch of www.versushistory.com and their forthcoming book, 'Versus Empire' - the first from the 'Versus' series, due for publication in 2018. Elliott (@thelibrarian6) and Patrick (@historychappy) are both experienced History Teachers and are dedicated to delivering highly academic and articulate historical debate, with students of A-Level, I.B and U.S History courses as the target focus. In episode one, both Teachers lay the platform for their debate on the historical significance of Lord Durham during his stint in the Canada's during the late 1830's. In the turbulent context of rebellion in both Upper and Lower Canada, did Lord Durham 'save' the white settler Empire for the Crown with his recommendations for 'responsible self-government'?
