The Dictionary of Human Geography (4th ed.). Wiley-Blackwell. p. 375.

was created in 1791 – very limited powers. But they wanted more power, which in turn
led to the Rebellions of 1837-1838.
![Page 18: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Francois-Xavier Garneau
![Page 34: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Dual Identity 1845 - Francois-Xavier
Garneau’s book: Histoire du Canada Tried to tell the story of the French colonists in
a patriotic way – why? In order to bring them back into favour with
the British Crown – Did it work?
Not really...BUT...It did make the French Canadians realize
they had little or no cultural literature!
![Page 35: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)

Economic Liberalism It was the latest British fad. Individual business had freedom Very little government intervention. Helped with the modernization of the
Education system – how? Because the business community wanted
a school for professionals!
![Page 37: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Economic Liberalism Who did it involve?
The French Canadian middle-class or the Petit Bourgeoisie, which made up parties like the Parti Patriote and the Parti Rouge
The English Business-Class or the Bourgeoisie d’Affairs, they profited most from the capitalist system and were represented by the Tory Party.
![Page 38: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)

THE ANTI-CLERICAL
MOVEMENT
![Page 43: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
The Anticlerical Movement
Because of Liberalism - The clergy is criticized.
The separation of Church and Education. Strangely – it is the Parti Patriote
who opposed the reign of the Catholic Church over education.
But they also refuse to submit to the rule of British Government…
![Page 44: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
The Anticlerical Movement
The Parti Patriote was dissolved due to the Rebellion.
But the Parti Rouge started to speak out against the Catholic Church.
State of ignorance? Were they right? Newpapers: L’Avenir and Le Pays
![Page 45: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Conclusion?Under the British Regime – The Catholic Church was losing influence over the people!
![Page 46: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
ULTRAMONTANISM
![Page 47: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Ultramontanism The Clergy got a bit of its power back during
the Ultramontanist period of the 19th century. What does “Ultramontanist” mean? Complete submission to Rome Very strict religious practice
In 1864, the Vatican published a list of things they considered to be against the faith : liberalism and socialism were on the list!
![Page 48: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Ultramontanism Canadian Ultramontanism:
Catholic obligation to the Church
The control of the Clergy on education
Increased interventions of Bishops into politics
The creation of religious Brotherhoods (e.g.: The Knights of Columbus)
![Page 49: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Ultramontanism Catholic Ultramontanists
spent a lot of money. They created newspapers (La Vérité),
Influenced elections,
Condemned books (Les Misérables),
Refusal to give some political members the sacrament because of the affiliations!
![Page 50: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
UltramontanismConclusion? The Catholic Church went to great
lengths to combat the Liberalist ideas.
Were they successful? For a time…But in the end the separation
of the Church and the State would be finalized during the Quiet Revolution of the 1960’s.

![Page 53: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
EDUCATION
![Page 54: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/54.jpg)
Education1840:
Out of the 111 000 children in Eastern Canada …
only 5000 of them went to school (that’s only 4.5%).
What was the problem? Not enough schools and little
organization.
![Page 55: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
Education In 1841 the Canadian government passes
a law creating Public School Boards to collect taxes and to organize the schools.
However, they created one Catholic board and one Protestant.
Is this a Good or a Bad thing?
![Page 56: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/56.jpg)
Education School attendance started to increase. The number of elementary schools in 1842
was 804, but by 1866 it was 3589.Reasons for this increase:
School was now mandatory up to a certain age The Canadian population started to believe in
creating a better life for their children.
As a result, schools started to overflow with children…

McGill - 1821
![Page 58: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Bishops - 1843
![Page 59: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/59.jpg)
Laval - 1852
![Page 60: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/60.jpg)
Montreal - 1878
![Page 61: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/61.jpg)
Higher EducationIn response to the British desire for professionals trained in Canada – two English speaking Universities were created:
McGill (1821) in Montreal - EnglishBishops (1843) Sherbrooke -
English
![Page 62: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/62.jpg)
Higher EducationThe Clergy started to worry about the influence of these English Universities, so they created their own:
1852 - the Université Laval was created in Quebec City.
1878 - the Université of Montreal
![Page 63: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/63.jpg)
Higher Education
Of course, the Francophone and the Anglophone schools were split. Anglophone Universities – funded by
English businesses: Engineering and Medicine.
Francophone Universities - funded by the Church: Theology, Law and Art
![Page 64: Dossier 3 – the British Regime](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062315/568164cf550346895dd6f97e/html5/thumbnails/64.jpg)
Higher Education
The Universities however, were only for the bourgeoisie – very few farmers got to attend!
The 20th century would bring even more growth in the area of education – especially after the 1930’s and two World Wars.
And naturally, the cultural landscape would change yet again…
