Canada Under British Rule 1760-1900

Canada Under British Rule 1760-1900, authored by John George Bourinot in the late 19th century, is a historical account detailing the political, social, and economic evolution of Canada following the British conquest. The book examines key legislative milestones, including the Quebec Act, and the transition towards greater autonomy and federalism. Bourinot highlights the impact of the United Empire Loyalists and contrasts French and British administrative frameworks, illustrating how these dynamics shaped Canada's national identity as it moved towards becoming a dominion distinct from its colonial past.
