Epigraph

Canadians! Do you love freedom? I know you do.
Do you hate oppression? Who dare deny it?
-- William Lyon Mackenzie

In good and bad fortune, we are for the people. If they ill-treated, we shall not keep aloof, we shall not remain quiet, we shall defend them at every risk. We contend for principles, and if these are violated, we will maintain them against any authority whatsoever, so long as our hearts beat--so long as our lips can pronounce the truth, give vent to protest, or scatter reproach!
-- Louis Joseph Papineau
