More about the book
The narrative explores the feelings of resentment among native-born Canadians towards British emigrants who were favored for government positions and opportunities. This preference is seen as unjust by the locals, who believe their status as natives grants them a stronger claim to such roles. The tension arises from a sense of infringement on their rights, highlighting themes of nationalism, identity, and the impact of colonial favoritism on social dynamics. The limited education of some Canadians adds complexity to their grievances, fueling discontent and jealousy.
