ISBN10: 0802081053, ISBN13: 9780802081056, [publisher: University of Toronto Press] Softcover First Edition A tight and unmarked copy-" On a snowy November day in 1872, the premier of Ontario is speaking in his constituency, and he tells a story of his people's long struggle for liberty. With this vignette, Paul Romney leads us onto a lost middle ground between conflicting visions of Canada's past. He reminds us that both French and English Canadians once regarded Confederation as a compact of provinces and of peoples, designed to permit each partner to cultivate its distinct society. In English Canada that original conception gave way to a nationalist myth, which alienated French Canadians by celebrating nation-building and exaltation of federal power. English Canada's forgetting resulted in a "historic blunder" - the patriation of the Canadian constitution without Quebec's consent. How did that happen? Romney presents the politics of nineteenth-century Ontario as a confrontation between two competing myths - one of resistance to subversion, and one of resistance to oppression. The latter sustained a long struggle for local autonomy, leading successively to colonial self-government, Confederation, and the entrenchment of provincial rights. It fitted well with the French-Canadian idea of Confederation. But immigration, industrialization, and a growing sense of Canadian nationhood transmuted both myths into rival nationalisms - one l ...
