Canada and the Canadian Question
- Canada and the Canadian Question
Canada and the Canadian Question was a 1891 book written by British-Canadian author Goldwin Smith.
The book analyzes 19th Century Canada, with Smith arguing that the country is a profoundly unnatural country that has no real reason to exist. He argues that it would be far more natural for the Canadian confederation and the United States to merge into a single country, as there are few significant differences between the two peoples. He also argues that the Canadian system of government is fundamentally worse than the US model, with Canada being a far more elitist ruled country.
Smith's analysis would later inspire a 1986 "update" by Peter Brimelow entitled The Patriot Game.
