"She is alone oh, poor lady in Leduc's barn, without light, without warmth, with nothing to eat or drink! How then do you wish to desert her?" "Not I," said the doctor composedly. "But I know mademoiselle, she is true Canadienne, not afraid of a little snow, a little storm! And the secret of my profession is always to eat and always to drink when good food and good drink are going.
The Welland Canal naturally leads one to reflect on the great sources of power spread before the Canadian nation; for, although it will never, never be la nation Canadienne, yet it will inevitably some day or other be the Canadian nation, and its limits the Atlantic and the Pacific Oceans.
As soon as the passage of these resolutions became known throughout Lower Canada, Papineau and his supporters commenced an active campaign of denunciation against England, from whom, they declared, there was no redress whatever to be expected. Wherever the revolutionists were in the majority, they shouted, "Vive la liberté!" "Vive la Nation Canadienne!" "Vive Papineau!"
It has no grain and will take a beautiful polish. Casgrain, "Une Paroisse Canadienne au XVIIe Siècle," Oeuvres, Vol. 1, pp. 530 sqq. We believe in Thee our God; do thou strengthen our faith; We hope in thee; confirm our hope; we repent of all our Sins; but do thou increase our repentance.
In fact, as Craig elsewhere noted, the habitants were becoming rather a new and distinct nationality, a nation canadienne. They ceased to be French; they declined to become English; and sheltered under their "Sacred Charter"* they became Canadians first and last.

'Bon jour, Madame, said Arthur boldly, to a tidy old lady, sitting in her green verandah. 'Nous sommes des étrangers I'd like to ask her what it's all about, he whispered confidentially to Robert; 'but I'm out of my depth already. The aged Canadienne arose, with the politeness so natural to her Gallic descent, and bade them welcome.
Mounted officers, laced and ruffled, gaily rode in front. Subalterns with spontoons and sergeants with halberds dressed the long line of glistening bayonets. The drums and fifes made the streets ring again, while the men in full chorus, a gorge deployee, chanted the gay refrain of La Belle Canadienne in honor of the lasses of Quebec.
Nothing calculated to mislead the people had been omitted in this vile print. The various circumstances that brought about the abdication of James the Second, had been pointed out, with allusions, as applicable to the government here. "La nation Canadienne," was their constant theme. Religious prejudices, jealousy, and extreme ignorance, forbade the expectation of any improvement in the Assembly.
James Thompson was in charge of the building of the houses for the prisoners and tells of their escape in his MS. Diary. Vol. IV deals especially with the life of the habitants. So also do H.R. Casgrain's "Une Paroisse Canadienne au XVIIe Siècle," Oeuvres Completes, Vol. The chapter is based chiefly upon personal observation.
