To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The letter in the Appendix shows that the Lafontaine-Baldwin Ministry was really formed with no other view than that of 16 doing justice to the French Canadians ; and that Mr. Baldwin was brought into power merely as the nominee of the French- Canadian leaders, who thus paid him a debt of gratitude which they had contracted when he resigned office under Lord Syden- ham on account of their exclusion from power. When the French Canadians made Mr. Baldwin a Minister under Sir Charles Bagot, he was... the leader of a section of the Opposition in the Assembly composed of four Upper Canada Members, himself included. This is a point to be carefully borne in mind. The Resolutions of September 1841 determined those relations between a Ministry and the Representative body, for which usage is the sole guarantee in this country ; but they leave wholly untouched that other part of the machinery of Parliamentary government which consists of the relations between a Ministry and the Crown. In this country, these latter relations are settled like the former, by usage, and depend on the good sense of the parties.
