Document Summary
Psychology in canada: social and political forces impact academia. Institutions begin in canada because british don"t want their children studying in america and it"s too expensive to send them home to britain: catholic church ran the universities in quebec (except for mcgill) In general, schools founded from east to west. Date of establishment doesn"t refer to the charter, but rather the year the first college was established: most universities amalgamation of colleges. Laval was developed before u of montreal, but for political control the cardinal (of the catholic church) from montreal won out. Order of development of canadian universities: dalhousie, mcgill, u of t, queen"s, university of ottawa, university of montreal, university of manitoba, university of western ontario, mcmaster, u of saskatchewan, u of edmonton, ubc. These remained the only twelve for quite awhile. For a longer time, even when there were more the newer ones were considered so low in prestige as to not be a true university.
