The earliest Presbyterian ministers in Upper Canada came from various denominations based in Scotland Ireland and the United States the "Presbytery of the Canadas" was formed in 1818 primarily by Scottish Associate Presbyterian missionaries yet independently of their mother denomination in the hope of including Presbyterian ministers of all stripes in Upper and Lower Canada Although successfully including members from Irish Associate and American Presbyterian and Reformed denominations the growing group of missionaries belonging to the Church of Scotland remained separate Instead in 1831 they formed their own "Synod of the Presbyterian Church of Canada in Connection with the Established Church of Scotland" That same year the "Presbytery of the Canadas" having grown and been re-organized became the "United Synod of Upper Canada" in its continued pursuit for Presbyterian unity (and a share of government funding from the Clergy Reserves for established churches) the United Synod sought a union with the Church of Scotland synod which it finally joined in 1840 However some ministers had left the United Synod prior to this merger (including notably Rev James Harris Rev William Jenkins and Rev Daniel Eastman) in the 1832 new Secessionist missionaries began to arrive belonging to "The United Associate Synod in Scotland" (after 1847 the United Presbyterian Church of Scotland) Committed to the voluntarist principle of rejecting government funding they decided against joining the "United Synod of Upper Canada" and on Christmas Day 1834 formed the "Missionary Presbytery of the Canadas" Although this new presbytery was formed at Rev James Harris's church in Toronto he and his congregation remained independent from it However the voluntarist Rev Jenkins and his congregation in Richmond Hill joined the Missionary Presbytery a few years later Rev Eastman had left the United Synod in 1833 to form the "Niagara Presbytery" of the Presbyterian Church in the USA After this presbytery dissolved following the Rebellion of 1837 he rejoined the United Synod which then joined the Church of Scotland Outside of these four Presbyterian denominations only two others gained a foothold in the province the small "Stamford Presbytery" of the American Secessionist tradition was formed in 1835 in the Niagara region and the Scottish Reformed Presbyterian or "Covenanter" tradition was represented in the province to an even lesser extent Despite the numerous denominations by the late 1830s the Church of Scotland was the main expression of Presbyterianism in Upper Canada Mennonites Tunkers Quakers and Children of Peace. 3.1 Ethnicity and language Toronto Waldorf School 3.3 Mattamy Athletic Centre. ; 9.2 CONCACAF Champions League Lobbyists Registrar St Michael's Hospital was founded in 1892 by the Sisters of St Joseph who operated the Notre Dame des Anges a boarding house for working women Originally an old Baptist church the hospital on Bond Street was created in response to care for the poor population in the south end of Toronto The hospital opened with a bed capacity of 26 and a staff of six doctors and four graduate nurses Within a year it was expanded to include two large wards and an emergency department As early as 1894 St Michael's Hospital started receiving medical students it negotiated a formal agreement with the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto in 1920 that continues to this day By 1912 bed capacity had reached 300 and a five-room operating suite was added Ongoing physical expansion most prominent in the 1960s increased the original 26-bed facility to a high of 900 beds Between 1892 and 1974 St Michael's school of nursing graduated 81 classes totalling 5,177 graduates the school was closed in 1974 when nursing education was moved into the province's community college system Thereafter the hospital opened a school for medical record librarians the first in Canada and also participated in the preparation of dietitians and X-ray and laboratory technologists In March 2010 the hospital re-branded itself simply as St Michael's to reflect its growing movement into medical research At the same time a new motto: "Inspired Care Inspiring Science." was also revealed Public transportation in Toronto dates back to 1849 with the creation of a horse-drawn stagecoach company Today Toronto's mass transit is primarily made up of a system of subways buses and streetcars covering approximately 1,200 km (750 mi) of routes operated by the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) and inter-regional commuter rail and bus service is provided by GO Transit Contents. 2 1805 indenture 3.2 Since 1900, Crops Hectares 3,457,966 3,411,667 3,544,927 3,656,705 3,660,941, Kingston 1.2.5.2 Alexandra School for Girls Lake Ontario Basin.
