To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The business life of the section is largely bi-lingual. The French have clung tenaciously and uncompromisingly to their guar- anteed rights and have developed an alien civiliza- tion as an island in the sea of Canadian English- speaking life. The dominant religious influence is Roman Catholic and Roman Catholicism of a most intolerant and bigoted type, persecuting and bitter. During the recent war the French were a prob- lem to the Canadian government and demons- trated that they had practicall...y no deep affiliation with France, but were supremely animated by religious considerations. It was only after con- cession had been made which assured the French Canadians that they would be officered by their own group, ministered to by their own chaplains and brigaded separately, that they came into the conflict on the side of their government. This hyper-selfconsciousness furnishes one of the most significant characteristics of the French Canadian people. Missionary work in Canada has developed and been prosecuted under great difficulties and for the expenditure of effort and money with com- paratively meager results numerically.
