To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It will also want that distinctiveness which alone can give it any share of the sym- ipatby of our countrymen in other parts of British America^ With- out a separate Council the minority cannot form a united body, ' capable of discussing its own plans and of advocating its own interests, and causes of complaint which the department cannot effectually redress will continually arise. It may bo said that minorities have no such rights anywhere, and that the minority in Upper Canada will claim simi...lar privileges. We can urge in reply, that if a cordon is to bo drawn around the French nationality in Lower Canada, the English within that palo have a right to a similar protection ; and that this is not a mere ques- tion of greater and less numbers, but of the maintenance of British education in a province of the British Empire. 2. One of the most serious defects of our present school law is its imperfect protection of the rights of the minority in the disposal of their school taxes, and all parties seem agreed that some change is required in this matter.
