May 1838 CE
A new Whig government sends Lord Durham to examine the volatile situation in Canada.
He and his entourage arrive in Upper Canada in May, and his Durham Report strongly recommends responsible government.
A less well-received recommendation, however, is the amalgamation of Upper and Lower Canada, a measure to forcibly assimilate the French speaking population.
