Chateau Clique

The Chateau Clique was a group of wealthy people much like the Family Compact but this was in Lower Canada. They were known by the name Parti bureaucrate which means British party or in the negative form Tory party. These people wanted to move into the English sense of things so they; replaced French civil law British Common Law, replaced the Roman Catholic church with the Anglican church. After the rebellion the upper and lower Canada's were inducted into a Province of Canada. Louis-Joseph Papineau was the leader of the reformist Patriot movement. And was a well known lawyer for his time of Lower Canada. Archibald Acheson, the second Earl of Gosford. He was a polition for the British and was the Lieutenant Governor of Lower Canada and Governor of General to British North America.

The family compact- Upper Canada

The family compact was a small group of well off people that were often related to some of the first British settlers and thought that gave them the right to make some of the more important decisions. Most of them wore very expensive clothing and jewelry. They were very snobby. They all dressed alike and most of the colors they wore were green. Even when British visitors came over to Canada to visit had a hard to getting into the likes of the rich and famous, some say it was like a "private club". Women that didn't even suit the fashion took it on as a duty to wear and look like the others. Some of the most known people of the family compact is William Lyon Mackenzie of Upper Canada. Mackenzie was a journalist and used his news paper to expose high power Loyalist of using their power to cater to their own selfish needs. He was tried, but later the case was dismissed because the jury found him not guilty. And even harsh remarks from the Attorney General didn't stop him from continuing his new paper. Some of the people that ran the family compact used bigetry to make support their laws.

Farming

The farming problems that we have had in this area is the soil is cold and solid, the prefrost is everywhere and it makes it very hard to dig hole to pland seeds and plants. There is so many big trees everywhere the governor said it would be so easy to move here and set up and make a new home. Even though we were given tools to make thing easyer so we could make a home before the winter. Now we are living in a small shed like shelter that has no windows and not even a door. I think its better that we dont have any windows and doors because there would be more places for the cold to get into the house. Father said that the goverement wants us to have a certain amount of land cleared or else we will be forced to leave the land that we have worked on. I cant beleave having to move again from a place that we call home. I think it would kill mother to have to leave our home again and move to another place that we dont know and will have to start all over again for a second time. So father is working even harder to make sure we have the right amount of land cleared before the spring. I pitch in anywhere I can but it is so hard to cut trees and put up fences and plow the icy ground. Some solidgers came over to help one day and stayed for a while but they said that they couldnt come everyday and I worry about what will happen.
