MILLS RIVER ELEMENTARY BENCHMARK TESTING SCHEDULE 2018 TRIAL

The trial and conviction of some members-the Port Hope 8 case-has been described as a miscarriage of justice. In 1978, eight members of the Satan's Choice Motorcycle Club were charged with a murder that occurred at Port Hope's Queen's Hotel. This special character makes Port Hope a destination for heritage tourism and people interested in architecture. Downtown businesses are regulated by the municipality to maintain the town's unique character. With over 270 heritage-designated buildings throughout the municipality, Port Hope has a higher per capita rate of preservation than any other town or city in Canada. The town's local chapter of the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario and the Heritage Port Hope Advisory Committee are very active and advise on the restoration and preservation of architecturally or historically significant buildings. In the early 21st century, Port Hope's downtown is celebrated as the best-preserved 19th-century streetscape in the province of Ontario. Relatively slow growth from 1881 to 1951 resulted in much of the town's 19th century architecture surviving. In 1834 Port Hope was incorporated as a town. That was the namesake of Colonel Henry Hope, lieutenant governor of the Province of Quebec. After a brief fling with the name Toronto, the village was renamed in 1817 as Port Hope, after the Township of Hope of which it was a part. They developed mills and a town plot by the turn of the century.Īfter the War of 1812, the Crown tried to recruit more British settlers, and townspeople wanted a new name. The new colonists called the settlement Smith's Creek after a former fur trader. In 1793, other Loyalists from the northern colonies became the first permanent settlers of European heritage in Port Hope, as the Crown granted them land as compensation for being forced to leave the colonies (much of their property was confiscated by rebel governments) and as payment for military service. Great Britain had ceded their lands, along with all other territory in the Thirteen Colonies east of the Mississippi River, after the United States won independence. They had been forced from their ancestral homeland in the Finger Lakes region, south of the Great Lakes, after having fought for King George III as Loyalists during the American Revolution. The Cayuga people, one of the Six Nations of the Iroquois Confederacy, migrated as United Empire Loyalists to the Port Hope area from New York state in 1779. The private Trinity College School opened here in 1868. It is located at the mouth of the Ganaraska River on the north shore of Lake Ontario, in the west end of Northumberland County.
