B-eiitenary of Responsible Government

' country. Suc 'ce-pted by

‘British principle of

Ilcng spent theory, by maintaining

general way administered by a governor named by the British Cabinet, an execulve cotuci.‘ chosen by the governor. a iegi" lative council life-appointed his: by the governor and a legislative assembly elected by the people. Legislation was debated and vote’! on by the gtwo branches of ini- legislature, but the governor, war left completely free to assent Jr dissent any bill thus passed when presented for sanction.

‘The remarkable peculiarity of the system resided in the fact that the governor also exercised the executive functions of ‘tlie government, thus combining ‘the dual authority of governor ad prime minister. The system was aggravated the more by the go»- crnor’s complete liberty to seleq. regardless of politics and parties, whom he pleased as members of his..execut.ive council. Moreover, these councillors bore no TCSPOJSi- bility to the legislative assembly, while the governor's policies .e- maimed accountable only to t.i-: British Cabinet. Consequently. 1h..- peopies elected representatives had but a very limited share ii. the administration of the country, since even its lcgislation was ieft to the discretion of the governor and the policy of the EXECUIIV? council was not submitted to LIZ» control of the legislature. Indeed the government before 1848, was

administration to the people oi the country.

First in Quebec. and later Ontario and Nova Scotia, the political leaders had for yeere vainly sought the introduction of some kind of responsible goverzi- meiit, that ls, responsible in 17.: elected representatives of the claims were not 3t." e British Cabinet. which held the opinion that the responsible government could not be adopic" in a colony, without creating aii inadmissible dual accountability to the British Cabinet and the cs2 onial legislature. But Canadian reformers steadily combated this

l.‘-

that there really existed e double field of administration, an impcr Isl one accountable to the British Cabinet. but also a provincial our inherently accountable through its elected representatives. to tnr. people of the colony.

In n more or less groping we). such was the principle aovocawd by Canadian legislators. First ex:- uncisted by Bedard in the f.rst decade of the last century, it was taken up from different engies bv

the principle that the “internal government of the colony" should rest "in the hands of the colonists themselves" end “thus leeve to them the execution of the laws’ Unfortunately with the diiatory instructions of the British Cabinet snd the personal reluctance o1 the governors of both United C.- nuie end Novs Swtie. the tw-o lending provinces in the move- ment, colonial administrations .~e- fused to yield to the legislatures’ resolutions claiming control of the executive council end requiring that the executive councillors oe selected from the majority Plfuy in the legislative assembly.

But the reformers refused in be denied their rights and pushed forward under Uniacke and Howe. in Nove Scotis end Liehntaine and Baldwin in United Ceneie. Their unrelenting pressure with its logical presentation oi their case, slowly moved the Brztisii Cabinet into a partial acceptance of their demand. In March 1541 the Colonial Secretary. Earl Urey wrote that "it is doubtless neces- sary that the direction of the in- ternal policy of the colony should be entrusted to those who enjoy the confidence of the Provincial Parliament." Though unaware of this change of British opinion tr.e provincial leaders decided to force e constitutional decision o‘ their case on the floor d we legislatures.

On January 26. 1848. the Nova Scotlan Assembly in Halifax voted a motion of went of confidence i:i the executive council, stating that "the present Executive Council does not possess that confidence so essential to the promoting of the public welfare. and so neces- sary to insure to Your Excellency

the harmonious co-operatioo of the Assembly,” As s result the executive council was reluctentiy

forced to resign and the heater.- ant-governor Sir John Harvey, asked James Boyle Uniacke to fonn a government from incin- bers of the majority parity in m’ Assembly. The way being thus cleared, a genuine responsible gov ernment was formed on Fflbllifil‘) Z, 184B. under Uniacke as Presi- dent of the Executive Council er-d Joseph Howe es Provincial Seer’:-

tary.

Similarly, in United Canada, a few weeks iater.'on the 3rd. -f March, the assembly in Montreal expressed by a heavy vote its wants of confidence in the execu- tive council of the province, with the declaration that it was "essen- tial to the satisfactory result of our deliberations" that “Her lila- jesty‘s Provincial Administration should possess the confidence of this House and of the Country’, adding "that that confidence is not reposed in the present Anus ers cf His Excellency." Immed- iately the Executive Councillors tendered their resignation and uh! Governor; Lord Elgin asked La- Fcntaine, its leader to constlture a government representing tne majority party in the legislature In consultation with Baldwin as co-associate LaFontaine crocecrieu to form on March 11th, the first responsible ministry of central Ca- riiida.

Thus, in the year 1848 in both provinces the government was ‘er.- irusted to an executive councfl. chosen from and accountable to the party having a majority ‘in the legislative assembly. This a‘:- countability of the Executive Council to the majority of the people's elected representatives ii. truduced responsible government in Canada which- in reality, mean’ the administration oi the coumiv by the people of the country ’I‘,hrough the recognition of ml;- principle, Canada achieved a new great step towards autonomy —e step which in the course of ouhni cal evolution led the country ti. its present political independence.
