Les Vikings - Album jeunesse

Although Canada's citizens are usually thought of as law-abiding and loyal to authority, there have been some notable and powerful rebels. From fiery spirits such as William Lyon Mackenzie and Louis-Joseph Papineau in 1837, to men and women who simply defied social convention, Canada's rebels have had a strong impact on its growth as a nation.

The Rebels

The American Revolution frequently turned neighbour against neighbour, brother against brother, and father against son. By the end of the conflict, more than seventy thousand former residents of the Thirteen Colonies left or lost their homes. Most headed north to the Canadian wilderness. Although they too wanted independent and democratic rights, they believed in law, order, and loyalty to Britain.
