He will be wel- comed as much by the French-C_an- adian as by the English-C_anadian, and I fancy that the celebration will, in a sense, do more for the English- Canadian than for the French-Can- - adian._ It will teach him more, it will help him more. The French'-Canad- ian has had to think _in two langu- ages for two generations; he has ,had to think, through the atmosphere of his own history, language and des- cent, in terms of British administra- tion and ideals. Th'e English-Cana- dian, more concrete, practical,\ and `less imaginative, has lived `a more selsh, centred life until late years. He needs to have his imagination stimulated, his -political sense made vivid, by an object-lesson of. the good that has gone before, of the light upon a_far horizon luring him to greater things.

The French Canadian has longl ceased-h_is grandfathers had ceased --to think of FrenchlCana_da in any relation to France. He is secure- at his grandfather and great, great, great grandfathers were-in his lan- guage, his civil law and his religion. Vastly outnumbering the British in his province, controlling it` from a French-Canadian point of view, andl having an administration markedlyl different from the rest of the Dom- inion of Canada, he is conscious of no lossexcept that another ag than the _eur-de -lys, or the tri,-color, ies above the citadel of Quebec. He I never has sympathy with the govern- ment at Versailles, which tyrannised, robbed and misgoverned him, and if. the English had not captured Que-' bec he would probably have rebelled as the British-American colonist re- belled, against the sovereign power. Patriot as he isgin the sense of lov-' ing the soil of Canada as deeply as the descendants of the Norman con.- quest could love the soilof England, there is only a question in the mind of the `French-Canadian of the place` that he holds in the national life of the Dominion-there is nopquestionl of any envy, hatred, malice or any I uncharitableness. - ~l M1,, 1 9 UVCJ , \IIbU\r\J an period.
