Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario records, 1948-1989

The Act to establish the Association of Professional Engineers of Ontario (APEO) was passed on June 14, 1922. The creation of the APEO was part of a larger movement in Canada to license the engineering profession. At first, membership in the APEO was not mandatory in order to work as an engineer, but this changed in 1937 when the Professional Engineers Act was amended so that licensing by the APEO was required. In 1945, the initials “P. Eng.” were adopted by the APEO as the official abbreviation of the professional engineer. Many other amendments have been made over the years in order to strengthen the APEO’s ability to regulate the profession. Members of the APEO must also abide by a Code of Ethics, which emphasizes the regard for public welfare as paramount. There are currently 36 chapters of the APEO. In 1993, the APEO’s name was changed to Professional Engineers of Ontario, in part to emphasize the group’s role as a licensing body for engineers as opposed to an association of member engineers.

Fleet Industries records, 1948, 1983-1989

The Fleet Aircraft of Canada Ltd. Company was founded in 1930 by Reuben Hollis Fleet in Fort Erie, Ontario. Within the first decade of operations, the company had gained an international reputation for excellence. With the outbreak of war in 1939, Fleet focused all of its efforts in the design and production of various training aircraft for the Royal Canadian Air Force and the refurbishment of British and Canadian fighter planes. Fleet ceased production of aircrafts in 1957 and was renamed Fleet Aerospace, a division of Magellan Aerospace. The manufacturing location in Fort Erie was known as Fleet Industries. Currently, the company is a Canadian Aerospace Sub-contractor that manufactures aerospace structures, component parts, and assemblies to approved design data. Fleet’s customers include Boeing, Bombardier, Viking Air and Erickson Air-Crane. In 2006, the Company became privately owned when 16 minority stakeholders took over operations. The Company was renamed Fleet Canada Inc.

Collections particulières et collectionneurs à Montréal au XIXe siècle : le cas de Louis-François Georges Baby.

Cette communication s'appuie sur des recherches réalisées dans le cadre de notre projet de thèse portant sur les collections particulières et les collectionneurs montréalais au XIXe siècle. Plus précisément, nous tentons de cerner l'identité sociale et l'habitus culturel de ces derniers. Un des principaux objectifs de notre recherche consiste à cibler et à comprendre les motivations des collectionneurs. L'histoire du collectionnement révèle cinq catégories générales de motivations : la collection comme porteur de sens par rapport à soi ou par rapport aux autres, collectionner par volonté de conserver le patrimoine et par souci de garder les traces du passé, collectionner en tant qu'investissement financier ou encore pour répondre à un besoin compulsif. Nous tenterons ici de déterminer quelles ont été les motivations de Louis-François-Georges Baby. Juge et homme politique, Baby fut un collectionneur passionné d'histoire et amateur d'art. Sa collection, d'une ampleur considérable, comprenait des documents historiques, des livres, des tableaux, des gravures, des plans, des monnaies, des médailles ainsi que des objets ethnographiques. Elle fut léguée, selon ses dernières volontés, au Collège de Joliette, à la Société d'archéologie et de numismatique de Montréal qu'il présida de 1884 à son décès ainsi qu'à l'Université Laval à Montréal qui hérita de plus de 20 000 documents d'archives et de 3 400 livres rares, estampes et autres documents.
