⁴ The narrative in the first part of this article is based on an autobiographical essay of fifty typewritten pages prepared by Donat Pharand in 2004 for distribution to members of his family as well as on countless conversations shared between Ronald St. J. Macdonald and Donat Pharand over a fifty-six-year period starting in the autumn of 1949 when they sat together as first-year law students at Dalhousie University. The narrative is also based on the recording of several interviews with Pharand conducted at Judge Macdonald’s request by Timothy Wilson and to whom he wished to express his deep appreciation. Pharand’s autobiographical memorandum [“Autobiography”] is accessible at the University of Ottawa Archives, IOO Marie Curie Street, Ottawa, KIN SN6.

⁵ A homemade bed with a straw mattress, a few dishes, orange crates for cupboards, a table, a bench, and two chairs. The only other buildings were an outhouse and a small stable for their one horse.

⁶ With the exception of Donat, all of the fourteen children were born at home and without any doctor in attendance. Three children having died in infancy in the previous six years, including two on the same day (from the Spanish influenza in 1918), Alphonse decided not to take any chances when it was Donat’s turn and sent his second oldest son, then nineteen years old, to get the nearest doctor by horse and buggy in the town of Capreol, some eight miles away.

⁹ The college became the University of Sudbury in 1957 and Laurentian University in 1960. The latter became a federated university composed of three smaller universities: the University of Sudbury (Catholic), Huntington (United Church), and Thornloe (Anglican).

¹⁰ Enrolment into the first year of the eight-year classical course hinged on a candidate’s results in the admission test.

¹¹ Even those few hours did not constitute complete freedom as a few of the priests were assigned to keep an eye on the college boys to insure that they did not attend any “immoral” films or speak with a girl for too long.

¹² So completely did Rodolphe Dubé live up to his reputation of forever questioning the status quo that in 1943 he left the order and eventually the priesthood and went into exile in France.

¹³ Léo Landreville later became a judge of the Ontario Supreme Court.

¹⁴ To help veterans rehabilitate themselves in civilian life, the Canadian government gave them the choice between a cash amount (so much for every month of service) or a month of university for every month of service and a modest monthly allowance during the academic year.

³⁷ Pharand has mixed feelings about his six years in the Common Law section at the University of Ottawa. He enjoyed teaching and his contact with students but regretted that so many well-qualified young professors did not remain on the faculty more than a year or two.

⁴⁴ Although Bishop was considerate and fair in relations with his students, he was not direct or effervescent in his praise. However, in January 1973, he had his private secretary and assistant of many years, Mary Broadly Gomes, inform Pharand that his doctoral committee had formerly recommended him for the doctorate of juridical sciences (SJD), and through this letter Pharand discovered that Bishop held his writing skills in high esteem: “As I mentioned to you before, Professor Bishop has formed a very high opinion of your ability in the international law field, and he liked your work for the dissertation very much. He also said that you had an unusual ability to write very clearly and to marshal your material together with a good sense of organization. Coming from the Master himself, this is all very high praise and he is not always this generous by any means. You should feel very pleased with what you have done.” Mary Gomes to Donat Pharand, 18 January 1973 [on file with the author].

⁴⁶ In addition to the 1976 “Excellence in Teaching Award,” Pharand received a number of other prestigious awards and honours. In 1964, the Association of Professors of the University of Ottawa took the initiative, with the cooperation of the Board of Governors, to establish an “Excellence in Research Award.” The honour was awarded annually to a professor who had made an important original contribution to the advancement of knowledge, and he or she was required to give a public lecture. In 1974, shortly after the publication of his book The Law of the Sea of the Arctic, with Special Reference to Canada, Pharand received the award. The topic of his lecture was “The Nortwest Passage: A Concern for Canadians,” and it was attended by numerous colleagues, students, family, and friends. In 1989, Pharand was awarded the “John E. Read Medal” by the Canadian Council on International Law for his “outstanding contribution to the cause of international law.” In 1994, Pharand was made an officer of the Order of Canada, in recognition of his contribution to the consolidation of Canada’s sovereignty over its Arctic waters and to the status of French in Ontario schools. Also in 1994, he was appointed a Queen’s Counsel by the government of Canada, recognizing “a person who has performed outstanding and extensive legal services for the federal government.” In 1999, Dalhousie University awarded Pharand an honorary doctor of law degree as “a most distinguished graduate” and “one of Canada’s foremost experts on the international law of the sea, specially with regard to the Arctic.”

⁴⁷ As required by the yearly recipient of the award, Pharand gave a public lecture on 8 November 1988, at which numerous colleagues and former students attended. Not surprising, the subject of his lecture was “Canada’s Sovereignty in the Arctic” and, since the award was to recognize excellence in teaching, which included “the use of innovative methods,” Donat spoke from a specially prepared map. With the help of a technician from the Faculty of Engineering, he had devised a lighted wall map of the Canadian Arctic showing the various zones of Canada’s jurisdiction with miniature lights: internal waters, territorial sea, and exclusive economic zone. Special control lights that were red and green were installed at each end of the Northwest Passage, which could change from red to green to indicate when authorization was granted to a foreign ship.

⁵⁸ After the lectures, the interpreter thanked Pharand and confided that, in over ten years of interpreting in his little cubicle, it was the first time he had received any public appreciation.

⁵⁹ His (unpublished) conclusions were that: ( 1 ) assaults on the principle of freedom of the seas are not new; (2) the more advanced the uses of marine spaces become the more numerous and extensive state claims develop; (3) the evolution of the principle of freedom of the seas has always served and continues to serve the interests of states capable of having their claims accepted; and (4) the defence of the freedom of the seas by Grotius in his Mare Liberum was not a philosophical exercise but a legal brief written for the Dutch East India Company to justify its capture of a Portuguese galleon in the straits of Malacca in 1602.

⁶⁴ In addition to enjoying free access to all library resources, Pharand was permitted to examine the original hand-written journals of the explorers, stored and catalogued in a special room in the basement. Alone in the room with the documents, Pharand had the impression of being in communication with the explorers themselves. He examined all of the relevant materials he could find on the British expeditions before the transfer of the Arctic islands to Canada in 1880, beginning with the expedition of Martin Frobisher in 1576 and ending with those in search of Sir John Franklin in 1859. The documents examined included the instructions to the explorers, their personal journals, the narratives by the commandant of the expeditions, and the reports to Parliament compiled in what are called Arctic Blue Books.

⁶⁵ Pharand’s conclusion confirmed the earlier finding by the historian Gordon W. Smith, “A Historical Survey of Maritime Exploration in the Canadian Arctic and Its Relevance with Subsequent and Present Sovereignty Issues” (1970) [unpublished] at 26 [on file with the author].

⁶⁹ Pharand’ s diary entry of 13 October 1989 reads as follows: “16:05 hrs: We’re in the last stretches ofVictoria Strait, approaching Larsen Sound, and going through second and multi-year ice as much as 10 feet thick.” And at 18:00 hrs: “I have just been on deck for a few minutes and this is certainly the worst we’ve hit so far. There are practically no open spaces and the icefield is covered with snow, and blowing, which means you can’t even guess as to the thickness of the ice.” The entrance to Larsen Sound turned out to be worse than Victoria Strait itself, and the captain told Pharand that “some of the floes we are now dealing with are about 15 feet thick.”

⁷⁰ As the journey neared the end, Pharand wrote in his diary on the morning of Sunday, 8 October 1989: “A sign that we are on the way home was given to me when I went for a coffee: the program ‘Sunday Morning’ was on. So I rushed back to my cabin to listen to the news. It’s heartlifting and it isn’t. It is in the sense that it makes you feel part of ‘civilization’ again, but it isn’t, in that the so-called civilization is part of a divided violent world. When one thinks that the Inuit, whose lands we have just left, were completely unfamiliar with the word ‘war’ until we brought it to them during World War II, one begins to wonder who brought civilization to whom. The great explorer Roald Amundsen, who spent two years with the Esquimos (as they were called then) when wintering at Gjoa Haven at the southeast corner of King William Island during his historic crossing of the Northwest Passage in 1903–06, was quite convinced that we did not bring them civilization. And this was essentially the opinion of the French oblate missionary, André Steinman, when I met him in 1955 after he had spent nearly twenty years with them on a continuous basis.”

¹⁴⁷ Ibid. The 1878 joint address by the House of Commons and Senate of Canada to the British Parliament requested a formal transfer of all Arctic lands and islands lying between the 141 st meridian of longitude and the series of straits between Ellesmere Island and Greenland. The reason for the address, reports Pharand, “was the uncertainty of the extent of the land and territories transferred to Canada by Great Britain in 1870” (at 4). He adds that the British transfer of 1880 “does not mention the sector lines and confines itself to territories, possessions and islands” (at 11 ).

On 20 February 1907, Senator Poirier proposed his now famous resolution: “That it be resolved that the Senate is of opinion that the time has come for Canada to make a formal declaration of possession of the lands and islands situation in the north of the Dominion, and extending to the North Pole.” In his speech in support of his motion, Senator Poirier declared that Canada owned all of the land within a pie-shaped sector extending from its continental coastlines up to the geographic North Pole. It was in fact a reference to Poirier’s resolution by one of his law school professors that first awakened Pharand’s interest in the Arctic.

¹⁵¹ Pharand considers the arguments of the main proponents of the boundary treaty theory, the American scholar David Hunter Miller and the Soviet writer W.L. Lakhtine. Ibid. at 12–17.

¹⁵² Ibid. at 26 [emphasis in the original].

¹⁵³ As Pharand states, “[e]ven those who invoke the boundary treaties of 1825 and 1867 look to that concept to reinforce their case.” Ibid. at 28.

¹⁵⁴ Pharand considers the United States’ reliance on the doctrine in the nineteenth century, that of various European powers with respect to colonial Africa, as well as that of Canada and Russia with respect to the Arctic.

¹⁵⁵ Pharand reviews a number of international decisions. With respect to the doctrine of contiguity as it applies to lands and islands, Pharand discusses the Aves Island case (1865), the Island of Bulama case (1870), the Monks Islands case (1885), the British Guyana case (1904), the Island of Palmas case (1928), the Eastern Greenland case (1933), the Minquiers and Ecrehos case (1953), and the Western Sahara case (1975). Canada’s Arctic Waters, supra note 63 at 30–36, with references at 90. With respect to the role of contiguity for the delimitation of the continental shelf, Pharand examines the North Sea Continental Shelf Cases ( 1969), the Anglo-French Channel Continental Shelf Case ( 1977), the Tunisia /Libya Continental Shelf Case ( 1982 ), and the Gulf of Maine Case ( 1984). Ibid. at 36–37, with references at 82–83.

¹⁵⁶ Among the doctrinal opinions scrutinized by Pharand, are those belonging to the French jurist Fauchille, the American jurist D.H. Miller, the English writer M.F. Lindley, the Soviet writer W.L. Lakhtine, and the British professors C.H.M. Waldock and H. Lauterpacht.

As for Canada’s vital interests, Pharand identifies three: the marine environment, the Inuit, and national security (at 175).

²⁴² The opinion of Pierre Calvé, emeritus professor and former dean of the Faculty of Education, University of Ottawa, interpreting the French text, reads: “It would seem at first that the judgment gives priority to the purely geographical factor, that is the geographical situation of the strait between two parts of the high seas, rather than the functional criterion (its use for international navigation), since the judgment states that the decisive criterion is its geographical situation. However, the fact that the authors took care to specify what they meant by this geographical criterion in explaining it by two sub-criteria linked by the coordinative conjunction ‘as well’ leaves no doubt as to their intention to consider those two sub-criteria as complementary and equivalent in importance.” Personal communication between Calvé and Pharand, 16 September 2005, reproduced in “Arctic Waters,” supra note 2 at 65–66, n 198.

²⁵⁴ As Pharand explains in more detail, “[i]n spite of the fact that the Manhattan accepted Canadian Navy Captain T C Pullen aboard as representative of Canada, and later had to be assisted by the CCGS Sir John A. Macdonald in both directions, the United States refused to ask prior authorization. The reason was that the Manhattan had intended to remain on the high seas throughout and exit through M’Clure Strait (Route 1 ) at the western end of the Passage. But, as it turned out, the Manhattan was forced to turn back about halfway through and use the narrow Prince of Wales Strait (Route 2), where it had to go through the territorial waters of Canada because of the presence of the small Princess Royal Islands.” Ibid. at 38.

Article 8(2) of the UNCLOS, supra note 76, provides that “where the establishment of a straight baseline… has the effect of enclosing as internal waters areas which had not previously been considered as such, a right of innocent passage… shall exist in those waters.” However, nearly twenty years elapsed between the drawing of the baselines and Canada’s consent to be bound by Article 8(2). “By that time, the waters enclosed by the 1985 straight baselines had already acquired the firm status of internal waters, not subject to the right of innocent passage, and this status has not changed.” Ibid. at 44.

²⁸⁹ Pharand is most proud, and rightly so, of a map of the Canadian Arctic archipelago, which he devised with engineering students at the University of Ottawa. Using small lights, Pharand can highlight the main route through the Northwest Passage (including red and green lights at the entrance to the passage). Pharand can also light up on his map the Canadian Arctic baselines and the outer limit of Canada’s exclusive economic zone.
