Answer:

"Upon retirement as the Governor of both the Vancouver Island and British Columbia colonies in the spring of 1864, Queen Victoria honoured James Douglas by making him a Knight. Officially he was made a Knight Commander of The Most Honourable Order of the Bath. He was given this award for the “performance of public personal duties to the crown that have merited royal favour.” The appointment of a knighthood to “Sir” James Douglas, as he was now known, was high recognition for Douglas, who emerged from humble origins as the son of a Scottish merchant and Creole woman in British Guiana. “Sir James Douglas’s career as governor has been a remarkable one,” an official at the Colonial Office acknowledged." — govlet.ca
