Document Summary
Loyalists/riots/la fontaine and baldwin: much of bna was sparsely populated, was not a solid foundation which could not support a new social formation. Britain had a surplus of people, the dense settlement of immigrants from throughout the british world was needed. Liberal capitalism when people from the first industrial capitalist country immigrated over here. True responsible government came from these to, and got the liberal ideals moving in the united province of canada. Lafontaine admired papineau and opposed the call to arms, he felt there were ways to use the british notions for the french. Baldwin wins a seat in the upper canadian assembly, he remains neutral during the rebellion and tries to talk. Both rejected sydenham"s notion of government and wanted true responsible government, by the party holding the majority of the seats in the assembly. The cabinet would be made up of the majority of the party in assembly not by appointed people.
