JOURNAL OF THE TIMES
v.1 - v.2, Halifax NS, MacAllister
and Paine, September 1858 - May/June 1860
The first, or the second if one counts the Family Dentist, dental journal published in Canada. Gullett
does not consider this to be a "real" dental journal and states, p 48, that "The Journal of the Times
was a letterhead-size four-page quarterly, of which seven issues were published. ...only the first
page was devoted to dental subjects. The other pages contained a miscellany of short items and
verses of a general nature, extracted from various publications and dealing with subjects from
philosophy to odd news events, interspersed with statements respecting the dental practice of
MacAllister and Paine of a advertising nature."

"In placing this, the first issue of the MANITOBA, NORTHWEST AND BRITISH COLUMBIA LANCET,
before the profession, I feel that a want has been supplied. The fast-increasing numbers of medical men
settled and settling in the vast area comprised under the above heading, the rapidly growing importance
of the respective provinces and the formation of colleges and schools, with the establishment of hospitals
of no mean capacity, all intimated that the time had arrived which demanded in the interests of the
profession a representative organ. The medical profession united is a powerful body, and the girdle
which binds them is their special journals" (Vol. 1:1 page 3.)

MEDICAL CHRONICLE
Montreal Monthly Journal of Medicine and Surgery
v.1 - v.6, Montreal, Moore, Owler and Stevenson, June 1853 - May 1859.
Editors: William Wright and Duncan Campbell MacCallum
Even in the first year of its existence, the Medical Chronicle (the sub-title only survived for Vol 1:1) contained a good supply of clinical
material, a substantial portion of it coming from authors practicing in Canada West. That year, 1853,
was the last year of publication of the Upper Canada Journal of Medical, Surgical and Physical
Science, which was then being edited by the contentious S.J. Stratford. After his journal expired, the Medical Chronicle was the only medical journal being published anywhere in Canada. MacDermot notes that in volume 6, page 559, the editors announce that "The reasons which have determined the publishers in stopping, or at least suspending for the moment, of the Chronicle, are various. One of the principal, we may mention to our readers, is the advent of the new Postal Law, which imposes the sum of Two Pence on each number of the Journal sent through the Post Office. This, if paid by the Proprietors, would make the Journal with its present subscription list a losing enterprise. From the first year of its issue up to the termination of last year, it has merely paid expenses, no profit whatever accruing to either the present or former proprietors. A large sum is now due to Messrs. Dawson and Son for the past year, and much will depend upon the promptitude with which these subscriptions are paid as to whether or not they will re-assume the responsibilities of publishing a Medical Journal."

MEDICAL CRITICISM
No. 1 (Sept. 2, 1882)] - 2nd ser. no. 12 (Mar. 31, 1883).
Editor: David Edwards
This title is not really a 'medical" journal as it was edited by a layperson and dealt with topical medical
subjects, such as vaccination, from a lay perspective. It does however give an interesting perspective
on the public perception of physicians.

MEDICAL TIMES
A Weekly Journal of Medical Science, News, and Politics.
v.1:1 - 26, Kingston ON, J. Nash, July 5 - December 27, 1873.
Editor: James Neish
The Editor's previous work as sub-editor during 1862 to the Kingston Daily News is reflected
in this short-lived journal. The publication, Canada's first weekly medical journal, contained almost
nothing that was either original or memorable, with the notable exception of the editorials. Neish was
an able editorialist who was well read on the medical-political issues of the day and who expressed
himself effectively. On this basis alone the modern historian may find a study of the journal profitable. MacDermot notes "The first attempt at a medical weekly in Canada was not a good one. Dr Neish complained that he did not receive enough encouragement from the profession but his paper really contained nothing to attract anyone."

MONTREAL MEDICAL GAZETTE
GAZETTE MÉDICALE DE MONTRÉAL (1844)
Being a Monthly Journal of Medicine and the Collateral Sciences.
v.1 - v.2:2, Montreal, Lovell and Gibson, April 1844 - May 1845.
Editors: Francis Badgley and William Sutherland
At the time they founded The Montreal Medical Gazette, Badgley and Sutherland were outside the medical
establishment of Montreal, having been excluded from McGill. They joined the group that founded the rival
Montreal School of Medicine and Surgery in 1843. In their journal, the second medical journal published
in Canada (the first being the Quebec Medical Journal), the Editors laid editorial siege to McGill and other
contemporary instances of what they believed to be chauvinistic and discriminatory institutions. Before the
journal itself appeared, the editors produced a sample issue, a "feeler," in which articles appeared
concurrently in English and in French. This publication is not numbered as part of the Gazette and we
have found only one instance in which it is bound with the journal - in the collection of the Osler
Library of McGill University. An unbound copy existed in the, now closed, William Boyd Collection of the
Academy of Medicine, Toronto. Confusingly, this trial issue is identified as being vol. 1, no. 1
of The Montreal Medical Gazette (dated March 1, 1844).
This journal therefore has the unusual distinction of possessing two "first" numbers, issued
a month apart. The [specimen no.] is the only issue to have its complete text in both English and French; other issues include some text in French.
The clinical papers that appeared in the thirteen issues of the journal are
good by the standards of the time; they were contributed almost entirely by physicians of
Canada East who were not affiliated with McGill University. Notable are contributions by
James Crawford providing comparative statistics on illness among soldiers on several
stations, including Canada (p. 33), and by A.H. Skene on the Commission charged to
study leprosy at Tracadie (p. 79). A running battle between Wolfred Nelson and Andrew Fernando.
Holmes over the question of whether one Julien Champeau did or did not have acute
peritonitis when he died is the most lengthy example of a series of controversial items
that found vigorous and outspoken expression through the pages of this short-lived journal.The Dictionary of Canadian Biography note "Dr Badgley ... loved controversies and contributed his share to those current in hospital and university circles. In his editorials he campaigned against those in charge of McGill University and the Montreal General Hospital, and against the Montreal Board of Medical Examiners, since in his opinion they all gave proof of chauvinism and discrimination.
