The author believes that the primary objective of the Canadian union of 1841 was the assimilation of French Canada, and when it became evident that that was an unrealistic objective, the inherent dualism in the United Province of Canada led to the emergence of a federal concept. This important new interpretation of the background of the French Canadian question provides a fresh approach to the present situation in Quebec.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e(Canadian Studies in History and Government No. 14) \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Ormsby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1487581459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487581459\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/15\/1969\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.58lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.34d","brand":"William Ormsby","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088389189887,"sku":"9781487581459","price":21.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_801505b8-9b57-4d35-ad29-ff1feb85b697.jpg?v=1769104561","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-emergence-of-the-federal-william-ormsby-9781487581459","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
