Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Dickey, Arthur Rupert, 1854-1900 : The Hon. Arthur R. Dickey, born in Amherst, N.S, was educated at the University of Toronto. He was called to the bar in 1878 and practised in Amherst. He was a Conservative member of Parliament, 1888-1896, and served as Secretary of State, 1894-1895, Minister of Militia and Defence, 1895-1896, and Minister of Justice, 1896.

In March 1896, a commission of three, comprising Dickey, Sir Donald A. Smith and Senator A. Desjardins, was appointed to negotiate on the Manitoba Schools Question with representatives of the Manitoba government, Hon. J. D. Cameron and Hon. Clifford Sifton, in an attempt to reach a compromise which would obviate the passing of a remedial bill by the Canadian Parliament. See: Johnson, Directory of Parliament, p. 166.
