The Tender For Law

Library

Ho, Canada!

1965 · re-edited 1996 by Jean-Paul Rhéaume

Smith argues that Canada is “a geographical expression, not a political entity”, that the British North America Act of 1867 was designed to keep Canada a colony, and that Canadians have never been able to vote as Canadians.

R. Rogers Smith was born in 1884 at Fort Qu’Appelle, in what is now Saskatchewan. He was a mechanical engineer and a student of international and constitutional law. His final chapter proposes a “do-it-yourself” way for an individual Canadian to assert the right to vote as a Canadian.
