History The Maple Leafs is one of six professional sports teams owned by Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) in 2018 Forbes estimated the value of the club at US $1.45 billion making the Maple Leafs are the second most valuable franchise in the NHL after the New York Rangers. However MLSE has refuted past valuations made by Forbes Initially ownership of the club was held by the Arena Gardens of Toronto Limited; an ownership group fronted by Henry Pellatt that owned and managed Arena Gardens the club was named a permanent franchise in the League following its inaugural season with team manager Charles Querrie and the Arena Gardens treasurer Hubert Vearncombe as its owners the Arena Company owned the club until 1919 when litigations from Eddie Livingstone forced the company to declare bankruptcy Querrie brokered the sale of the Arena Garden's share to the owners of the amateur St Patricks Hockey Club. Maintaining his shares in the club Querrie fronted the new ownership group until 1927 when the club was put up for sale Toronto Varsity Blues coach Conn Smythe put together an ownership group and purchased the franchise for $160,000 in 1929 Smythe decided in the midst of the Great Depression that the Maple Leafs needed a new arena to finance it Smythe launched Maple Leaf Gardens Limited (MLGL) a publicly traded management company to own both the Maple Leafs and the new arena which was named Maple Leaf Gardens Smythe traded his stake in the Leafs for shares in MLGL and sold shares in the holding company to the public to help fund construction for the arena Although Smythe was the face of MLGL from its founding he did not gain controlling interest in the company until 1947. Smythe remained MLGL's principal owner until 1961 when he sold 90 percent of his shares to an ownership group consisting of Harold Ballard John Bassett and Stafford Smythe Ballard became majority owner in February 1972 shortly following the death of Stafford Smythe. Ballard was the principal owner of MLGL until his death in 1990 the company remained a publicly traded company until 1998 when an ownership group fronted by Steve Stavro privatized the company by acquiring more than the 90 percent of stock necessary to force objecting shareholders out While initially primarily a hockey company with ownership stakes in a number of junior hockey clubs including the Toronto Marlboros of the Ontario Hockey Association the company later branched out to own the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the Canadian Football League from the late 1970s to late 1980s on February 12 1998 MLGL purchased the Toronto Raptors of the National Basketball Association who were constructing the then-Air Canada Centre After MLGL acquired the Raptors the company changed its name to MLSE the company's portfolio has since expanded to include the Toronto FC of Major League Soccer the Toronto Marlies of the AHL the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League and a 37.5 percent stake in Maple Leaf Square The present ownership structure emerged in 2012 after the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan (the company's former principal owner) announced the sale of its 75 percent stake in MLSE to a consortium made up of Bell Canada and Rogers Communications in a deal valued at $1.32 billion as part of the sale two numbered companies were created to jointly hold stock This ownership structure ensures that at the shareholder level Rogers and Bell vote their overall 75 percent interest in the company together and thus decisions on the management of the company must be made by consensus between the two a portion of Bell's share in MLSE is owned by its pension fund in order to make Bell's share in MLSE under 30 percent This was done so that Bell could retain its existing 18 percent interest in the Montreal Canadiens; as NHL rules prevent any shareholder that owns more than 30 percent of a team from holding an ownership position in another the remaining 25 percent is owned by Larry Tanenbaum who is also the chairman of MLSE Ownership structure of Maple Leafs Sports & Entertainment, There is disagreement as to whether the Canadian-built Frontenac (170 feet 52 m) launched on 7 September 1816 at Ernestown Ontario or the US-built Ontario (110 feet 34 m) launched in the spring of 1817 at Sacketts Harbor New York was the first steamboat on the Great Lakes While Frontenac was launched first Ontario began active service first the first steamboat on the upper Great Lakes was the passenger-carrying Walk-In-The-Water built in 1818 to navigate Lake Erie In the years between 1809 and 1837 just over 100 steamboats were launched by Upper and Lower Canadians for the St Lawrence River and Great Lakes trade of which ten operated on Lake Ontario the single largest engine foundry in British North America before 1838 was the Eagle Foundry of Montreal founded by John Dod Ward in the fall of 1819 which manufactured 33 of the steam engines the largest Upper Canadian engine manufacturer was Sheldon & Dutcher of Toronto who made three engines in the 1830s before being driven to Bankruptcy by the Bank of Upper Canada in 1837 The major owner-operators of steamships on Lake Ontario were Donald Bethune John Hamilton Hugh Richardson and Henry Gildersleeve each of whom would have invested a substantial fortune Roads, Source: Statistics Canada Census of Agriculture. 7.2 Assistant administrators 1.2.3 The Barilko Curse (1950s). !

11.2 Sources The land grant policy changed after 1825 as the Upper Canadian administration faced a financial crisis that would otherwise require raising local taxes thereby making it more dependent on a local elected legislature the Upper Canadian state ended its policy of granting land to "unofficial" settlers and implemented a broad plan of revenue-generating sales the Crown replaced its old policy of land grants to ordinary settlers in newly opened districts with land sales by auction it also passed legislation that allowed the auctioning of previously granted land for payment of back-taxes Canada Company, Principal 14 Notes Captain John Robinson of the York Militia Robinson assisted two other officers from the militia during their negotiations for surrender Colonel William Chewett and Major William Allen of the 3rd York Regiment of militia tried to arrange a capitulation assisted by Captain John Beverley Robinson the acting Attorney General of Upper Canada the process took time the Americans were angry over their losses particularly because they believed that the ship and fort had been destroyed after negotiations for surrender had already begun. Nevertheless Colonel Mitchell of the 3rd U.S Artillery agreed to terms While they waited for Dearborn and Chauncey to ratify the terms the surrendered militia were held prisoner in a blockhouse without food or medical attention for the few wounded Forsyth's company of the 1st U.S Rifle Regiment was left as guard in the town at this stage few Americans had entered the town The next morning the terms had still not been ratified since Dearborn had refused to leave the corvette Madison When he eventually did Reverend John Strachan (who held no official position other than Rector of York at the time) first brusquely tried to force him to sign the articles for capitulation on the spot then accused Chauncey to his face of delaying the capitulation to allow the American troops licence to commit outrages. Eventually Dearborn formally agreed to the articles for surrender the official terms of surrender permitted civil servants to continue carrying out their duties and surgeons to treat British wounded. As a part of the terms of surrender any troops remaining in York became prisoners of war although those serving in the militia were "paroled," allowing them to return home so long as they not rejoin the conflict until an official prisoner exchange had secured their "release". Members of the York Militia were ordered to relinquish their arms and proceed to Fort York garrison the officers of the militia were subsequently released on "parole," although the rest of the militia remained imprisoned for two days. Kept without food water or medical attention the imprisoned militia was eventually released at the behest of Strachan The Americans took over the dockyard where they captured a brig (Duke of Gloucester) in poor state of repair and twenty 24-pounder carronades and other stores intended for the British squadron on Lake Erie Sir Isaac Brock was beyond salvage the Americans had missed another ship-rigged vessel Prince Regent which carried 16 guns as she sailed for Kingston to collect ordnance two days before the Americans had been sighted the Americans also demanded and received several thousand pounds in Army Bills which had been in the keeping of Prideaux Selby the Receiver General of Upper Canada who was mortally ill Burning of York. . .
