Islam and Slavery - Islam and Slavery, documents the Qur'an's stance on slavery and the role that slavery played in early Islam. Islam did allow slavery, yet it discouraged the keeping of slaves, considering freeing a slave a good deed.

Slavery in Canada - Slavery in Canada was first practised by some aboriginal nations, who routinely captured slaves from neighbouring tribes as part of their accepted laws of war. However, chattel slavery (where slaves were the private property of their owners and their children were born into slavery as well) started with the European settlements, appearing soon after the colonies were founded in the early 1600s.

Chattel slavery - Chattel slavery is a type of slavery defined as the absolute legal ownership of a person or persons, including the legal right to buy and sell them. Likely the most recent and notorious large-scale enslavement was American slavery in the South.

Act Against Slavery - The Act Against Slavery was an Act passed by Upper Canada on 1793-07-09 to prohibit slavery. The Act remained in force until 1833 when the British Parliament's Emancipation Act abolished slavery in all parts of the British Empire.
