History as Story
Peter C. Newman and the Hudson's Bay Co.
By Chris Carton
Volume 18 Number 1
1990 January
One of Canada's best-selling authors discusses his formula for success in popularizing Canadian history: romanticism, myth building and leaving out the dull parts. Enrolment in high school history courses is down. Past high school history is just a memory for most people. But history sells maybe not as well as crime or romance or espionage but it sells. Peter C. Newman is a writer whose history is read. People who could only just bear to hang on through the final exam in high school have cheerfully forked over twenty or thirty dollars to read Newman's Hudson's Bay Company histories, Company of Adventurers and Caesars of the Wilderness. Newman chatted with me while he was promoting an illustrated companion to these volumes, Empire of the Bay, which undoubtedly turned up under its share of Christmas trees. Teachers everywhere should ask themselves why. Newman is one of Canada's best known journalists. Formerly editor-in-chief of Canada's "national" magazine, Maclean's, and the country's largest newspaper, the Toronto Star, Newman looks back to a time when he was an eleven-year-old Jewish refugee from Czechoslovakia fleeing Hitler's nazism. In a career that includes thirteen best selling books on history and politics and numerous awards for journalism, the affection he feels for this country seems to be his guiding principle: '1 never took Canada for granted. I always thought this was an incredible, wonderful country. It saved my life when I was running away from the Nazis...and has given me not only a home but an incredible career."

Although born, Vienna, 1929, Peter C. Newman’s roots are steadfastly linked to Moravia, a distinct region of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic. Arriving in Canada as a Czechoslovakian emigrant, Peter was enrolled at Upper Canada College, a well-known private school bastion in Toronto where many of Canada’s better known business personalities send their sons. After graduating, University of Toronto, B.A., 1950, Peter began working for the Financial Post. He became Editor-in-Chief, 1969-71, Toronto Daily Star, then Editor, Maclean’s, 1971-81. A prolific author, Peter has written voluminously and extensively on Canadian business and politics for many U.S., U.K., and Canadian magazines. His more than 20 books have not only been celebrated nationally but have contributed immensely to popularizing Canada’s culture, history, and heritage. Authoring a seven-part TV series on the Canadian Establishment won for him four ACTRA awards. Winner of many national awards, Mr. Newman was promoted from Officer, Order of Canada, 1979, to Companion, Order of Canada, 1990. Today, he lives beside the ocean in British Columbia where he pursues his sailing interests. In this view, Peter Newman hams it up, 1987, at the launching of Caesars of the Wilderness, volume II of his best-selling, three-part history of the Hudson’s Bay Company.

Author Peter C. Newman at SMU
One of Canada's most successful writers will give a reading from his latest book at Saint Mary's on Wednesday, November 25. Peter C. Newman will read from "Titans," the third volume in his bestselling 'Establishment' series, which made publishing history 20 years ago and has since sold more than half a million copies. It will take place at 8pm in Room 201 (the Conference Theatre) of the Sobey Building. Everyone is invited to attend. The family dynasties that were once the pillars of the Canadian Establishment have largely crumbled, toppled by a fast-changing economy and a new breed of powerful entrepreneur. In "Titans: How the New Canadian Establishment Seized Power," Newman explores the lives and careers of the country's new ruling elite, players on the international stage whose success is based on ambition, cunning and hard work rather than the family or private school connections. "They now run Canada's economy, and thus the country," writes Newman of the Titans. He notes that the Sobeys of Nova Scotia are one of the few 'old' Establishment families still in contention in this new environment, and the 'old' Establishment families had a strong tendency to support the communities in which they operated. Mr. Newman has been editor-in-chief of the country's largest newspaper, The Toronto Star, and most influential magazine, Maclean's. A Companion of the Order of Canada, he recently received a lifetime achievement from the Canadian Journalism Foundation.

Recent data indicates that PECAM-1 functions as an intercellular junctional molecule in human endothelium, and may help to form the barrier that controls leukocyte trafficking. Current PECAM-1 related projects include the interaction of cytosolic signaling molecules with the cytoplasmic domain of PECAM-1, delineating the 5' regulatory region of the PECAM-1 gene that controls expression, and the use of synthetic peptides and recombinant constructs to examine the extracellular domains that mediate the interactions of leukocytes with the endothelial cell lining of the vessel wall.

The current focus of the laboratory is a detailed examination of the molecular mechanisms of platelet activation and adhesion, and the biology of PECAM-1 in blood and vascular cells. Projects range from molecular biologic and biochemical investigation of stimulatoryand inhibitory signal transduction pathways, to the development of murine models for platelet-mediated arterial thrombosis. Ongoing NIH-funded research projects are listed below:
  • Adhesive and signaling properties of PECAM-1 using murine models and
    retroviral transduction of hematopoietic stem cells
  • Molecular mechanisms of platelet activation and adhesion using transgenic
    and knock-in mice with altered integrin function
  • DNA microarray analysis of gene expression
  • Effects of oxidative injury and tyrosine nitration on inhibitory signaling
  • Role of serine phosphorylation in PECAM-1 signal transduction

80. Dog Sleds In The Northwest
newman, peter C. Caesars of the Wilderness. newman, peter C. An IllustratedHistory of the Hudson s Bay Company (formerly Empire of the Bay).
http://www.northwestjournal.ca/IV5.htm
Art V. The Dog Sled in the Northwest, by A. Gottfred.
Some notes on the use of dog sleds in the fur trade are presented.
The dog sled was a vital form of winter transportation for the fur traders of the Northwest, and was used by both the Hudson's Bay Company and the North West Company. In this article, I will present a few notes from my reading of journal accounts of dog sleds in the Northwest before 1821. I will also use later accounts and drawings of dog sleds to provide as complete a picture as possible of the dog sleds of the Northwest. The dog sleds used seem to have had two basic designs—the open 'sledge', and the enclosed 'cariole'. Sledges were used routinely in the fur trade as early as 1797, and possibly earlier. In 1797, Peter Fidler notes that two men left the HBC's Buckingham House (near modern Elk Point, Alberta) with '2 sledges with dogs.' (Johnson, 86) In 1795, William Tomison records that his men 'made some sleds' at Edmonton House, but it is unclear if these were dog sleds or sledges for horses (Johnson, 23). I could find no journal descriptions of sledges. Some drawings from after 1821 show sledges shaped very much like a toboggan, but with a higher front curl. These sledges were pulled by one to four dogs harnessed in a line (Kane, 271 ; Newman, Caesars , 46, 157 ; Newman
