Began all minutes of the oldest Polish organization in Toronto, of which The Polish Alliance of Canada is the continuation.  On April 29, 1907, Stefan Ferdynand Adalia Satalecki from Chicago initiated the brotherhood; it was granted a charter on December 19, 1907, which is the current charter of The Polish Alliance of Canada.  The first executive board consisted of the following individuals: Ignacy Kolaczynski – President; Antoni Wozniak – Vice-president; Wladyslaw Konopka – Recording Secretary; Kazimierz Kolaczynski – Financial Secretary; Stanislaw Naploszczyc – Cashier; and Francis Foltarz – Speaker. Francis Konopka, Antoni Lozicki and Feliks Naploszczyc were the curators.  The auditing committee was made up of Stanislaw Konopka and Jan Holody. Caretaking functions were taken on by Joseph Bruczniewicz.

Three constitutions of the Brotherhood remain: the first, written by hand in 1907; the second, printed in 1909; and the third, printed and published in 1918.

It is worth citing several fragments, in order to understand the character of this organization’s activities, as well as to underline the numerous articles that remain in the current version.

Article II: Society Objectives.

1. To aim for moral and material development by expanding friendships, unity and real love between members.  Friendships – through mutual help via any honest means.  Unity – through mutual help during sickness or death and through support of widows and orphans after members’ deaths.  True Christian Love – through the treatment of others like we would want to be treated.
2. To organize memorial celebrations of Polish anniversaries and special responsibilities, which national honour encourages […]

Article III. […]

1. Since the Roman-Catholic faith is the predominant belief system in the Polish nation, we consider it our responsibility to abide by it and to live as Catholics and Poles […]
2. The Society will celebrate two national holidays: May 3^rd and November 29^th.

Article IV. […]

1. Since Lithuania and Russia have been freely joined with Poland for many years, Lithuanians and Russians, as our brothers, have the right to join and to belong to the Society, and to work together for themselves and for Poland.
2. The Society’s official documents will be stamped with the coat-of-arms of the Republic of Poland, which consists of the Polish Eagle on the left, the Lithuanian Pursuit coat-of-arms on the right, the Russian coat-of-arms of Archangel Michael on the bottom, and the name Sons of Poland all around.

Article V. […]

1. Only Poles, Lithuanians and Russians may be part of this Society.

By comparing this first version of the constitution of the Sons of Poland Brotherhood to that of The Polish Alliance of Canada, it is easily shown that many entries remain unchanged.  Entries concerning Lithuanians and Russians disappeared from the third version of the Brotherhood’s constitution because they formed their own ethnic organizations. Constitutional entries about religion were also changed; The Polish Alliance of Canada took on complete religious tolerance, as a clearly secular organization.
