Butlons to Canadian history much earlier than a century ago. Cele- brations planned for the first week in August to mark the centenary will be colored by centuries of tra- dition, The city at the junction of the St. Lawrence River and Lake One tarip was the scene of noteworthy historical events long before the white man came to North America. Originally owned by the Mississauga Indian tribe, the district was a tribal meeting place even in the gary 1600's when the natives no doubt held many a council to dis- cuss the problems arising out of the invasion of their country. Was Fort Frontenac When Canada was New France, it was Fort Frontenac, now a part of Kingston, that was considered the bastion of the lake region, from both military and commercial stand. points, Frontenac, France's great colon- izer marked out the present site of the city was an ideal place for a fur depot and as a point of defence against the Iroquois. Also, he hop- ed, the establishment of the fort might help dissuade the Indians from taking their furs to the Dutch and English traders in New Eng- land, By the time Canada had become British, and Upper Canada was created a separate province, King- ston had already become the chief town of the district. It was here, that John Graves Simcoe, newly appointed lieutenant-governor of Upper Canada called his first pare llament, First Parliament Though he moved it later to a place of less strategic importance, Kingston's career as a capital city did not end with that action, When the provinces were united in 1841, Lord Sydenham (Charles Poulett Thompson) chose the city as the meeting place of the first parlia« ment of Canada and here the capi- ta] remained until for reasons of political expediency, it was moved away again three years later, The site of the first assembly meeting, now a part of Kingston /General Hospital, and the home of Lord Sydenham on Union Street still stand reminders of the city's political importance. In the field of journalism, too, Kingston scored a first. The British Whig, first daily newspaper in Up- per or Lower Canada made its ap- pearance in the city, Jan. 1, 1849. It was the fore-runner of the pre- sent Whig-Standard, and many an event of national Importance was made known first through its col- umns, A number of international news events too first reached the news- stands from Kingston, Not the least of these was the now famous statement by President Roosevelt 1938 when he announced that the United States would not stand idly by # Canada were invaded by a foreign power, The occasion was a convocation address at Queen's University when the president had been awarded the honorary degree of Doctor of Laws, at one of Canada's first universities likewise a Kingston institution.
