| | The failure of the Meech Lake Accord stimulated a vigorous renaissance of French-Canadian nationalism as many Quebeckers concluded that constitutional renewal was impossible. | | | It signified fighting for recognition of French and Catholic rights at CONFEDERATION, notably within Québec, and later in the English-speaking provinces in the face of attempts to abolish French or Roman Catholic schools ( see MANITOBA SCHOOLS QUESTION). | | | In May 1980 the government held a provincial referendum ( see QUÉBEC REFERENDUM) in which it asked for a mandate to negotiate SOVEREIGNTY-ASSOCIATION with the rest of Canada. |

| | These were the legal [French civil law], familial [large family, traditional role of the mother] or institutional elements [seigneurial system, classical colleges, co-operative movement] that characterised the nation and had to be preserved if the nation was to last. | | | French was largely immaterial to economic success in the province. | | | That the bishop was able to raise several hundred French Canadian zouaves in a province notorious for opposing foreign wars speaks volumes of the strength of ultramontanism in Quebec in the XIXth century. |

| | As president, Theodore Roosevelt had antagonized and energized English Canadian nationalism during a dispute over the Alaska boundary; his successor William Howard Taft made a new, more generous Reciprocity Treaty with Canada a cornerstone of his foreign policy. | | | But the United States was stung by British (and Canadian) sympathy for the Confederacy during the Civil War, and in 1871 when the treaty came up for renewal, it was rejected by Congress. | | | They were appalled by language laws that seemed to violate the freedom of speech that Americans hold dear and saw large government-owned corporations like HydroQuebec as targets more suited to privatization than national pride. |

| Â | Pierre Elliot Trudeau & the demise of liberal Canadian nationalism |
| | For a combination of reasons—his Québécois origins, his role in promoting French language rights and articulating a more assertive and ostensibly progressive Canadian nationalism, his political sangfroid, and his fierce opposition to Quebec nationalism—Trudeau came to be viewed by the ruling class as the politician best able to counter the threat of Quebec separatism. | | | Twice, however, Trudeau did break his silence to rally opposition to proposed changes to the Canadian constitution, which he argued weakened the federal state. | | | This shift underpinned the evolution of Trudeau's politics and that of the four Liberal governments he headed. |

| | Although it was still defended and promoted up until the beginning of the 20th century, the French-Canadian liberal nationalism born out of the American and French revolutions began to decline in the 1840s, gradually being replaced by both a more moderate liberal nationalism and the ultramontanism of the powerful Catholic clergy. | | | A political movement for the independence of the Canadien people slowly took form following the enactment of the Constitutional Act of 1791. | | | From 1783 to the late 1830s the world witnessed the creation of many new national states with the birth of the United States of America, the French Republic, |

| | Nevertheless, the francophones of Lower Canada learned to think of themselves as a minority, and to work within a foreign political system (both the United Province and the Canadian federation that succeeded it in 1867) while focusing upon the Roman Catholic Church as the motor of French Canada’s internal development. | | | This instability, combined with fear of United States expansionism and a strong push from London, led to the creation of an enlarged Canadian federation in 1867, initially including the four provinces of Ontario (Upper Canada), Quebec (Lower Canada), New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia. | | | The Quebec Act of 1774 (fifteen years after the British takeover) gave French-Canadian society linguistic and religious guarantees, indicating that the British authorities accepted (if only pragmatically) a permanent francophone and Catholic presence in the St. Lawrence Valley as a part of the Empire. |

| | Canadians have always used the expression "responsible government" to mean the form of government we have today, in which the governor no longer has independent power to run the administration but has ministers who run it for him and who are chosen from the majority in the legislative assembly, to which they are answerable. | | | In the first Lower Canadian elections, for example, more than a third of the men elected to the assembly were members of the old aristocracy. | | | Remember that under the French regime, government was the exclusive concern of the governor, the intendant, and the officials they appointed. |

| | Leaving aside his 'prediction' of the Balkanization of the United States, he is explicit about the consequences of the new media: psychical and sensory integration, but social decentralization, and the development of what he called 'tribal ministates'. | | | This makes nationalist aspirations paradoxical because if they are a result of unifying circuits and systems, they are also at the same time an attempt to defend themselves against the threat of homogenization. | | | This is not so much a Canadian preoccupation, although, surely, it is that, too, as it leads into the broader political question of McLuhan's representation of so-called 'tribal' cultures and 'otherness'. |
