<br/><br/> "On August 2, 1838, a pillar of the Upper Canadian establishment appeared before the Executive Council accused of having had illicit sexual liaisons with a number of young men. What happened next offers a glimpse into attitudes toward homosexuality in nineteenth-century Canada." (BEAVER) This article discusses the case of George Markland, a prominent member of the Legislative Council in 19th-century Upper Canada, and how transcripts recorded accusations made against him of illicit homosexual activity.
