Description

Explore the complex legal and governmental systems that shaped Red River, now Winnipeg, during a pivotal era of Canadian history. This annotated record volume from the Rupert's Land Record Society Series examines the General Quarterly Court of Assiniboia between 1844 and 1872, revealing how colonial authorities attempted to maintain order across a diverse settlement inhabited by First Nations peoples, Metis, Scots, Upper and Lower Canadians, and Americans. Dale Gibson's meticulous research illuminates the Hudson's Bay Company's influence on law and administration, the tensions inherent in governing such a multicultural frontier community, and the legal conflicts that ultimately led to the 1869-70 Red River Rebellion and confederation with Canada in 1870. This scholarly work offers valuable insights into early Canadian legal history and the indigenous and Metis perspectives often overlooked in mainstream accounts.

Key Features

Volume 2 of the Rupert's Land Record Society Series focuses on the General Quarterly Court of Assiniboia from 1844 to 1872, covering crucial decades in Red River's development.

Annotated court records provide direct primary source material documenting legal proceedings and governance decisions within the Hudson's Bay Company-dominated settlement.

Dale Gibson's analysis examines the intersection of law, indigenous rights, and Metis identity during the era leading to the 1869-70 Red River Rebellion.

McGill-Queen's University Press publication ensures academic rigour and scholarly credibility for researchers, historians, and students of Canadian colonial history.

Reveals the challenges of administering justice across a diverse population including First Nations, Metis, Scots, and American settlers in a frontier environment.

Contextualizes the legal system's failure to prevent conflict and its role in sparking confederation with Canada in 1870.
