Commonwealth Of Nations
The Commonwealth of Nations, simply referred to as the Commonwealth, is a political association of 56 member states, the vast majority of which are former territories of the British Empire. The chief institutions of the organisation are the Commonwealth Secretariat, which focuses on intergovernmental aspects, and the Commonwealth Foundation, which focuses on non-governmental relations amongst member states. Numerous organisations are associated with and operate within the Commonwealth. The Commonwealth dates back to the first half of the 20th century with the decolonisation of the British Empire through increased self-governance of its territories. It was originally created as the British Commonwealth of Nations through the Balfour Declaration at the 1926 Imperial Conference, and formalised by the United Kingdom through the Statute of Westminster in 1931. The current Commonwealth of Nations was formally constituted by the London Declaration in 1949, which modernised the comm ...

List Of Canadian High Commissioners To Newfoundland
The Canadian High Commission to Newfoundland was opened in 1941 for purposes of co-ordinating the war effort and in particular defence during World War II. When Canada negotiated with the United Kingdom government about the appointment of Canadian High Commissioner to Newfoundland, it also asked that a reciprocal representative of Newfoundland be stationed in Ottawa. The British government refused to consider an appointment of a representative with the rank of High Commissioner as Newfoundland was no longer fully self-governing and instead suggested that the Canadian government accept an Agent-General for Newfoundland who would be appointed to both Ottawa and Washington, D.C. and that the Agent's role be confined to "supply, commercial, and technical questions" and that political matters be directed instead to the British High Commission in Ottawa. The Canadian government rejected the dual appointment and suggested the appointment of an Accredited Representative. The negotiations ...
