  2. Document Based Test • The test for this unit is going to be based on documents from your textbook. • There are going to be 10 documents. All the questions for the test will about these documents. • To review for this test you will have to study the meaning of these documents as well as you notes from class. • The questions will be in the form of short answers as well as matching documents to the questions.

  3. Documents • Document #6 (p.9): This shows the political organization of Lower Canada in 1791 after the Constitutional Act. Notice how the real power of the government is located in the position of the governor. • Document #7 (p.10): The Constitutional Act and the clergy. Notice how the CA ensures the protection of the Catholic Church in Lower Canada. • Document #11 (p.14): French-English relations. Notice how Lord Selkirk describes how separate the Canadiens and British really are. That would explain why they argue so much in the Assembly.

  4. Documents • Document #16 (p.17): Number of people in Bourgeois professions. Notice how Canadiens professionals outnumber their British counterparts • Document #21 (p.21): A petition to unify Upper and Lower Canada. Notice how the British colonist want to see the Canadiens assimilated into the British population. • Document #25 (p.24) Papineau’s Liberalism. Notice how Papineau is warning of rebellion if liberal demands are not met.

  5. Documents • Document #33 (p.30): The Battle of St. Eustache. This picture shows an example of the type of pitched battles that the Patriotes fought against the British. • Document #34 (p.31): Declaration of Independence of Lower Canada. The articles of this declaration are good examples of some of the ideal of liberalism and the demands of the Canadiens. • Document #46 (p.36): Lord Durham’s vision of the Canadiens. Lord Durham clearly believes that the British are superior to the Canadien and talks about how to assimilate them.

  6. Documents • Document #52 (p.39): Gov’t of United Canada 1840. This shows what the gov’t was like after the the Act of Union. It made Canadien representatives a minority and did not grant ministerial accountability like the Durham report suggested.
